For those that thought the Raffy '93 Refractor went high, just wait...

until this baby ends! Jimmy Key is probably the toughest card, condition-wise from this set. This is the first PSA 10 graded. He also has a tough 1/1 with Curt Schilling up for sale. He's going to clear over $10k from these auctions, easy...

At least $5k is my guess

    This is ridiculous guys --- WORK TOGETHER AND SPLIT UP THE CARDS YOU NEED. God knows more 10s will pop up over time. It is crazy to pay $1,000s of dollars for these cards in PSA 10 grade...

    I'm sure the seller appreciated your efforts.

    Just out of curiosity, why would you care?

    I'd do the same thing ... I mean, why not --- true these two guys are idiots for not doing it themselves ... but with all of the shilling, etc. going on with the '93 refractors, it gets a bit annoying to watch unfold.

    ... it's the holiday season ... good for you jmbkb4!

    I think you're confusing Tuttle's auctions-- which have indeed been shilled, as jmbkb pointed out in an earlier thread-- with this seller, who to the best of my knowledge has not been using shills.
  • exactly this guy gets a tough ten and you want to punish him by telling his bidders not to bid against each other. What about this guys holiday season and his family that could have benefited from thousands of dollars. A classless act. image

    You didn't seem to have a problem with these guys paying top dollar when you were the one who had a card to sell that both wanted. How many times have we heard about how you were able to benefit from these two guys killing one another by paying top dollar for refractors? How many times have we heard you boasting about how you got $4000 for a Kirby Puckett 10?

    Now you're now trying to interfere with someone else selling PSA 10s? Now you care about these two dopes paying through the nose for PSA 10s?

    You've got some nerve.

If I had a nickel for everytime you came onto the board and boasted about how you fleeced the people on the Set Registry with your latest submissions..How many times have we heard about how you got $4000 for a Kirby Puckett 10 ?

    The fact that you're now trying to interfere with someone else selling PSA 10s that YOU DONT HAVE speaks volumes to your lack of integrity and how you're jealous because you weren't the one who hit the Jimmy Key PSA 10 refractor lottery. >>

    OK, so that Palmeira 1/1 went for around $5000, right? So does that make these a bargain?

    edit: Palmeiro

    You're not as dumb as you appear. Well, in this case, perhaps you are.

    Had there been no reserve, this would have sold for a shade over $5,000. There was NO bidding war on this one...

    Wow.

    Just...Wow!

    Are you really this thick?

    What you don't seem to understand is that despite you telling Joe Kent to be patient and don't bid thousands and thousands on this seller's refractors, he ignored you and placed a $10,000 bid on the cards ANYWAY. Basically, he took your "advice" and told you to shove it. He saw through your pathetic little attempt to undermine the seller and wanted nothing to do with anything you said.

    So are you able to grasp my post now? Are you able to see why I said, "Looks like JMB's attempts to interfere with Mojo's auctions didn't work that well"?

    Now that we've established reading comprehension is not your strong suit and we've also established that you have no morals when it comes to others selling refractors. You've admitted to sabotaging the auctions of other sellers just because you don't want people you bilk to spend money elsewhere.

    Don't you ever tire of making yourself look like the village idiot?

    This "village idiot" sure does seem important to..............YOU!

    In any case, Joe Kent must have more $$$ to burn than I do. No worries. Set a reserve and see who wants to bid the highest. God bless mojomagnet. I have done and will do the same.

    Speaking of........DBH, did you notice that there is another Palmeiro 10 that was just graded??? Gee, I wonder who could have submitted one to receive a 10 grade!!!!! I'm betting you could guess, because you seem to have more time to waste obsessing over cards you despise than most people have time to collect the cards they LOVE!!!! This is very telling to anyone with a psychology background (or anyone with common sense...)

    I'll give you one guess..... image

    Does this mean you'll be shilling your own auctions again? image

    I think you'd make a terrific candidate for psychoanalysis. At least we'll figure out what's so lacking in your home life that you need to constantly pat yourself on the back on a message board and why you feel the urge to call those who don't want to hear your constant stream of BS "jealous."

    I sure hope nobody messes with your auctions like you did with Mojos..that'd be a terrible thing. Terrible! image

  • this is turning in to the sports talk forum, well almost
  • Now DBH,

    I don't think you would waste time setting up fake accounts to screw me over.......now would you?

    I couldn't imagine that you would. I mean, setting by the computer waiting for me to post on here is one thing, but you surely don't have enough time to set up fake eBay accounts.

    Do you???

    Heh, the only reason I bring up "shill" is because I've been told you've done your fair share of shill bidding on your own auctions in the past. After all we've seen of you, I wouldn't be surprised. image

    But I do find it funny that you're now crying about how someone MIGHT screw over one of your auctions when you've ADMITTED to screwing with the auctions of other sellers.

    Or maybe someone can email Joe Kent or Pinhead and tell them, "This is ridiculous guys --- WORK TOGETHER AND SPLIT UP THE CARDS YOU NEED. God knows more 10s will pop up over time. It is crazy to pay $1,000s of dollars for these cards in PSA 10 grade... " image

  • OK, DBH, whatever you say!!!

    But, between you and me, we both know what you did to me recently on those auctions. It will all be OK for me in the end, but it was pretty slimy.

    I know I can never prove anything, and I think eBay's anonymity for this, but your apparent rage and veiled/passive-aggressive attacks do speak volumes.....

    Any member can send me a PM and I'll be happy to provide all the details.

    Oh oh, more "passive aggressive" psychobabble from JMB.

    And now you're going to try pinning whatever make believe you have going on in your head on me? Dude, you SERIOUSLY need to see a therapist, because the tin foil hat you're wearing is making you nuts. Do me a favor and TELL me what I supposedly did to you, "between you and me," as you say.

    Edit: I just took a look at JMB's ebay account and it looks like a zero feedback bidder recently won a bunch of his auctions. First of all, you're not giving me nearly enough credit. If I wanted to trash your auctions, I would do so with an account with sufficient feedback as to be able to LEAVE negative feedback. I don't think a zero feedback bidder can leave negative feedback, if I remember correctly.

    Anyway, have you thought maybe the person who messed with your auction was the person paying you back for what you confessed to on a public forum (interfering with the auctions of others)? Or maybe it was a buyer who bought refractors from you advertised as "perfect" but came back trimmed and Min. size req'd. I'm sure if you think it over carefully, you'll be able to find a lot more people who just plain don't like you. image

    Merry Christmas. I'll never change your mind about me. To you, I am only barely short of Satan, Hitler, and Stalin.
