  • Thats an old post that they guy keeps reposting. I saw the same one a few months back. He could very well no longer be with us, and this guy just keeps toping it. I know wxpkfvr@aol.com is a worthless piece of you know what, seeing how he stole $200 from my buddy last year. Either he is a liar, which I believe he is, or he got what was comming to him. Either way, don't care what happens to Mr. Rodriguez from MO, since no good can come from him.

  • Well since your new to this forum and dont know much about Cecil Pitts...

    He has ripped off many people on here and other forums. If you do a search on here for MPsteelerfan you will see he has a nasty history. As for the guy who posted this on the other message boards i dont think he has a reason to lie even if he is a dirtbag also.

    Anyways im just warning people about him as there seems to be alot of newbies on here in the last few months.

  • Just needed to let people know that in the 3 trades we did with mpsteelerfan,we NEVER had any problem other than it took a little longer to receive the cards;but we did get them
    We also know that others did have some problems with some of thier trades.Last we heard on him was he was in the hospital for checkup but then took turn for the worse.We do know he had some serious medical issues in his life.
    We used to chat some as he also knew I was having medical problems as well.Someone was going to check to see what had happened to him,but nothing more has been reported.
    Thought it was only fair to let people know he wasn't all bad.

    He didn't PM me his addy...he sent it to my e-mail. BUT about 3 months ago I lost all of my e-mails, and my trades with MP were about maybe 6-7 months ago I believe. 1 more peice of info I can tell you (don't know if it will help though):

    He always tried to sell me stuff, even though I would offer him a trade (he dide this like 3 or 4 times). The peculiar (I dunno if I spelled that rightimage ) thing about it is this:

    He would say like "$5 shipped for that card", then I would ask him the book value (at the time like a 1 month period I had no Beckett) he would say he doesn't have a beckett either. But yet he some how gets "$5 shipped". That happened I think 2 times.

    So that was kinda weird. I dunno if it helps though.

  • Ausin, i did not get ripped off by this guy i am just warning people about him. If people think that he is dead or sick thats fine with me. If he had some great trades with people i am happy for them. I just wanted to warn people about him thats all.
