Interesting this board is basically an unopened forum now.

I was a longtime reader before I started posting. There used to be raw card posts, grading posts, non sport posts, but all it is now is an unopened forum. And a lot of it is just BBCE groupies posting, lol.
It's all good with me though.....unopened is my focus, I've just noticed it's a lot different than it used to be. Hope your Turkey Day was good.

I've been here 10 yrs in January.
I have posted on tobacco items I pick up with no interest. Does that reflect on me? Absolutely not. Does it make me feel a little bad? It would be disingenuous for me to say no. But, that's how it goes on a board.
We have people collecting at all kinds of levels.
Last week someone posted on a really nice "hit" from a pack. I was just about to congratulate the person when I decided to check out what the card was all about - value e.g. - only to find "that" card already on ebay. So this individual is a "flipper" IMO. Is there anything wrong with that? Absolutely not. But, I'm a collector and "every" pull stays here.
We have some really passionate "unopened" guys here - and I really enjoy their company and collections.
Now, if a few "game board" guys happened to come along? I'd be very happy. But until then?
I'm dancin' with the partner I came with.
Tango anyone?
