Just curious

I was looking at the prices that www.mintstateinc.com for PSA graded football cards and was wondering if anyone really buys cards from them. They have cards that are 300-500 dollars above SMR. Also a 1978 common $11.00 value for $199.

    Mintstate is an ass**** (or at least the guy who owns it is....i forget his name). I found him very rude and pompous.

    Without going into detail, mintstate had his lawyers put the muscle on CU/PSA and had people apologize for some statements they made or be banned.

    Some, to this day are still bitter about the move by CU.

    They're big enough to act here.

    Thank you for the information Mike. Does that, in fact, help substantiate precisely what I said?

    IMO, no problem - you have the right to say you think a guy is an a-hole for being rude. He may also turn into a werewolf with every full moon and howl into the night for all I know? image

    Certain names you can call someone are never defamatory, because they are expressions of pure opinion. A$$hole is one of them. It means nothing more than that you really don't like someone.
