    Hey Pat,
    just wanted to chime in, before this goes to the dust bin (lol), yes, I remember, fun times.
    Seems so long ago.

    I had far less than a full set and was still in the top 20.
    Nowadays with all the money in the registry sets that is not doable.

    Mercury dimes used to come in handy if you were looking for a quick fix for a lost screwdriver.

    Rebirth. Renewal. Transformation.

    Hi Pat,

    I'm still here & have moved up a few notches since those days. Remember the "Merc Shirts"?

    For those that don't know, PCGS only updated the registry sets, once a week, on Fridays. Everyone would check their set status on Friday with upgrades since the last Friday in red. We'd also post "passing signals" to let others know when we moved up in the rankings passing them. Indeed, fun times!

    Regards,

    I didn't post much, if at all, in the Merc-dedicated threads, but I recall their activity and would read them.
