11 years ago and I'm a little nervous


This will probably be the most "water under the bridge"/"horse out of the barn" post ever. I just found this old 1999 receipt from a place I bought several cards from. I bought 32 '71 Topps and

about two years ago I had several sent in for grading and they all came back trimmed. On previous buys I bought '60 and '64 Topps cards but have not had any other than the '71s graded. Does

anyone remember "Diamonds Are Forever" and how they did business? It doesn't really matter now of course but I just want to know if they had a bad reputation back then or not. Thanks. Doug

    Ah, Dan Tupper if I remember right. I wish I could share my stories but I probably shouldn't.

    Sounds like the wrong kind of 5% off sale...

    I agree, I seem to remember back in December '99 when I made the '71 purchase they said they were going out of business. Maybe I'm wrong but my credit card was billed to "end of the roll"

    which is a carpet company according to a Sandy Bill. Feel free to PM me or let me know if they have good business practices. Thanks

    "End of the Roll" is correct. Bought cards from them on occasion, can't remember specific purchases.
