If not, I'll give a brief description of what happened. The husband answered an ad on Craigslist and was going to buy a Joe Dimaggio Autographed card for his dad-in-law. When the guy showed up, it was a card described as "mint condition". It got a little weird after that, but ultimately the husband was accidently shocked with a stun gun as the guy was handing him the card!!! image And of course the vibration caused the card to be NOT in mint condition anymore!! image

    THAT explains it!!! Apparently a lot of the cards I have bought in the past got the same stun gun treatment between the time I bought them and the time they got packed/shipped.

    As a big fan of the show, I can say that was one of the best episodes of the series. Many LOL moments

    I feel the same way, probably the best episode to date, and I've watched it since the beginning! Best comedy on TV.

    Has anyone tried to figure out what card that actually was? You can watch the episode here on Hulu, the scene starts at the 11:40 mark. Hilariousness...

    At first glance I though it looked like a '66 back

    edit to add: Watched it again. That's not a '66...
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12
