  • << <i>ENOUGH already. Jeezus. You're not getting the d*mn cards, and nobody cares anymore. This has got to the point where your intelligence now must come into question. AMAZING. I think you would wade through a pile of feces to get free cards. They're not coming. We dont care. We know that's not the point. We know its the "principle" (which is a lie). Sorry to sound harsh... but not really; enough is enough. >>



    +1 for the new guy.

    Hey Ruckus speak for yourself.


    Some here may want to know.


    Who the hell are you to speak for the forum?


    Steve
    Good for you.
  • The only ones that may want to know cant type because of the straitjacket latches.

    When I was in my late teens I was a smoker - I know - dumb...but when I went back and looked at my childhood cards about a year ago, all the edges were yellow. SOOOO nasty. Fortunately I quit 8 years ago and only started collecting again 2 years ago. If only I had known then that I was ruining my cards. Fortunately, I didn't have any valuable cards since I grew up in the late 80's.

  • I think you mean most not some.
    Mike
  • Well i dont really care about this anymore either. The problem is that for all the positive transactions on these boards , why is it that the negative ones keep being updated. Why cant the great gestures and positive trades and buys be mentioned more often.

    I really am sorry that this experience didnt turn out like it should have but after all this time i think its time to talk about something else.

    Vito... How do I know that you have the same card addiction as me? You mention about the hazards of cigarette smoking and not one time do you mention the damage to your lungs or body, but merely what damage was done to your cards. That's a dedicated card collector there. Love it!!!

    Ok, that was hilarious...I think it's safe to say that I quit smoking years ago because of the health hazards, without regard for my cards... image

    All I was saying was that I regret not considering my cards and smoking outside when I was younger..LOL.

    But yes, former addictive smoker...now an addictive card collector.

    btw my mother is on the home dialysis it is called paratenial (i am sure i mispelled it) a few weeks ago she had a tear in the peritinial cavity that made the fluid go to her into her lungs where she ended up getting out of breath after only walking like a few feet. she had to have sugery to go onto the hemo dialysis wich in 6 weeks or six months from now she will be able to do from home. in wich case i will have to stay with her somewhere from 2-3 hours each day 2-3 days a week. if people do not belive me i can take a photo of the machine she uses. or used.

    I added a little more to it today whether it was right or wrong and if no one would post about how much they can't stand this it would drop to the bottom very quickly as I don't make a point to TTT everyday like some people tend to do.

    My posting has been fairly civil but seems that some are being downright hostile. But that's what makes this a rather unique board as there are many different classes of people and sometimes those that are of a higher class have issues with us low class people.

    If an eBay seller pulls crap it's lynch mob time. If a card isn't graded the way people think it should, it's lynch mob time. But if a member on here pulls something it aww he deserves another chance. Well then Gary deserves another chance as well doesn't he? I mean people are still harping on what he did but wait, what he did was for a higher dollar amount. Oh that's right, that makes a difference as my transaction was for a piddly little insignificant amount (which I have repeated myself over and over that it isn't about the money but some can't get past $10.)

    And then the fcpowell situation was a good one as well. Guy goes MIA for a short time and everyone wants his head on a silver platter and he's outed as a bad seller within days where I waited two months to out this person.

    And who is it that from time to time mentions the Ted Williams pack that is owed to him? Man that has got to be really irritating to see that posted every so often.

    I've been a member here since 2005 and if anyone chooses to feel free to search through my posts. I am not a trouble maker and go out of my way to help others if I can with any of my limited knowledge that I have learned in my 40 years of life. I have had a few other transaction on here that didn't go 100% smoothly but the difference in those compared to this is clearly the sellers made good and didn't make excuse after excuse. They were men of their word and did the right thing.

    I make no more apologies other then the ones I made throughout this thread and if you want this thread to die out and drop to the bottom then please feel free to stop adding to it.

    Edward you don't have to take a photo to prove anything about your personal life as that's personal and has no bearing on this matter.

    I can go on about my 73 year old mother as well and the problems she is having but it also has no bearing on this and isn't anyones business.

    I sincerely hope your mother gets better and wish her all the best.

    If Iam not mistaken you owe Allen the Williams pack.Maybe he should start a thread about not getting what he thought was owed to him like you are.You don't like to hear so why are you beating a dead horse still?
    Mike
    P.S. send the man his Williams pack already.It was a deal after all.Isn't this what this stupid thread is all about?Morals not dollars right?So when will you be sending the pack?

    Yeah and a real man would apologize for making false statements when he had no evidence to back his claim like you just did.

    And the search function works wonders on here as I did find who it was within seconds of looking.
  • Ok I am sorry that I told you that you are an idiot for dragging the thread the mud.And my bad about confusing the names.You are still beating a dead horse.Get over it.I told you if wanted VG 71's that I would send them to you to get you to shut up but now I am afraid my freebie sending ettiquete(sp?) would be rediculed in it's own thread also.But seriously if those beat up 71's mean that much to you then pm me but only under the premise that you never bring this bs of a thread back up again.

    You don't get it do you? If I told you I was going to send you something I would 100% send it to you without excuses after excuses. It's called honoring your word which it's clear that that is a bizarre and unheard of concept in this day and age.

    And why so hostile? I don't know you from a hole in the ground yet you've pegged me as an idiot when you don't even know me.

  • The guys asked over at Net54 that this be posted on CU, however I think we already knew some of this

    "Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that board member, benderbroeth, Edward Broeth, is not someone to be trusted. On Nov 17 I paid him $185 via paypal for a lot of cards he was trying to sell. To date I have received nothing and none of the 4 emails I have sent have been responded to. Edward has not logged onto Net 54 since completing the transaction with me but has been active on PSA's board under the same id, benderbroeth. Maybe someone reading this is also member over there and wants to warn those folks in case Edward has more to "sell".

    The contact info I have for Edward is:

    XXX

    Hoping this will prevent someone else from getting robbed by this guy. It is a shame that someone actually places their reputation on any amount of money but for $185???? Seems Edward needs much more than money."

    I have no dog in this fight and I'm not saying this to in anyway refute the claim of the Net54 collector...

    I've had two dealing with Ed, one cash and one trade. Both went smoothly.

    Hope this works out for all involved.

    Give the guy a break . Maybe he just goggled or youtubed " climate change hoax " and realized we have been seriously lied to, and then realized the world isn't going to end in 2012 . Now he's confused.

    i just purchased ed's T206 cards, it took about 3 weeks to get the cards. it could be a little frustrating waiting for cards when you send an instant payment. i think it should take about 7 days at the latest but thats me. but i did get the cards and he was in communication with me, but i'm not sure what the hold up was.

    hope it works out for everyone

    Yeah, really, don't see a problem here. If they went first class, and not priority, 8 days isn't even unusual. Longer than normal, sure. But not unusual at all.

    And I would also agree that if somebody wants something posted over here, they should sack up and do it themselves.

    I'm not a big buyer but I've never even come close to waiting 3 weeks for a card, and if that's what I had to wait I'd block that seller in a minute.
