I like you Jason, but I have to disagree here. A member BANNED from our community. I don't think banned means "banned until you change your nickname." I think it means "banned." Just saying.
I'm not going to get involved with the whole "alt" identity issue but I do have a question for the OP: Earlier in the thread, when you were accused of not "paying higher prices" than a certain company in Kansas, you replied by stating you collect RAW sets and they collect GRADED sets. Seems like a valid response but then you purchase a graded '75 set???? Again, not trying to stir up any trouble but I may have some graded sets available but don't know whether or not you might want them.

I have no dog in this fight but in general when it comes to the BST and high dollar transactions I think it's relevant to know a user's history on the boards.
Successful coin BST transactions with Gerard and segoja.
Successful card BST transactions with cbcnow, brogurt, gstarling, Bravesfan 007, and rajah 424.
When I first met Sean last year, we did a deal on a lot I was selling in one chunk to go after my Ruth RC. We amicably and quickly saw the two cards where we were off on price, removed those from the deal, and were then in agreement on a 20k value. He wired me the 20k in less than an hour. When I wanted to sell another piece via an AH, he had major AHs lined up for me without me having to lift a finger, and negotiated amazing terms for me, just as a favor.
Try and talk him up all you want but people's actions in the past haunt them, kid or not (and 3 years was not that long ago - please, enough of the self-forgiveness). I dont ever remember anyone claiming he has ripped anyone off but he DID do some shady things and at risk of going down a dark path. Do people change? Maybe. Again, I personally dont care. What he did to me was unforgivable and there is nothing that anyone can do or say to make me change my opinion of him being a dirtbag. For that, I will never trust him and speak openly of my experience.
It's nice that you have had good transactions with him and that you have developed a friendship. But please, enough of the free advertising for him. He is banned again for good reason.
While I never had any plans to interject into this thread when I knew it was him, I was called out. For that, people will be reminded. Just by calling me out without knowing facts again shows me his lack of maturity.

I just sold my sons 1975 set to Sean and had no problems very smooth transaction. I personally don't see why he is or was banned from this form.

Maybe it is the Registry Gods telling me not to sell my cards!!!
