..the thread is now locked, but it is a good read about what NOT to do if you sell a collection. When I pass away, I will instruct her to get on here and throw EVERYTHING up. And yes, if you thought his estate find was nice, I guess ya'll will have a field day with my stuff. Just take it easy on her please....

    Oh yeah that's my fault. I'm used to the forum rules being at the top and didn't look twice, my apologies.

    You must have hundreds of OC Nolan Ryan RCs if your collection is better than that gold mine.

    I'm sure the thread was closed because of all the guys bashing the OP. It's probably not a good idea to start all that again in this thread.

    +1 - OP had a great collection, offered it up to sell, had overwhelming response, apologized for how quickly stuff went, some bashed him for not making it "fair".

    Once items were sold people sour graped that the items were searched and OC,and slandered him when he would not sell to everyone that contacted him because the demand made it impossible to contact everyone that was interested before the items were gone. It was not like the items went to an auction house, and he said they were sold to people on the board - just a lot quicker than anticipated.

    Why is it being carried over here? What's the point?

    There is no point other than pot stirring.

    Totally off subject, but speaking of pot, a moderator must be super conservative, because my pot themed avatar is suddenly missing...bummer man!

    It's nice.....just don't take advantage of my girlfriend. She knows nothing about any of that kind of stuff. I may ask one of my buddies on here that lives in NC to help assist to make sure she is not overwhelmed.

    I personally would rather smoke the pot than stir it!

    Hi everyone

    I know Kirk and am sure he would never intentionally hoodwink anyone nor screw them.

    I'm not going to read that thread.

    I am sure of one thing. Kirk is "not" gonna give his stuff away - so be ready to pay what's proper. Also, people were very impressed with the thread on his "find" and I'm sure Kirk got inundated with emails/PMs when he decided to sell some of it.

    So, I would guess some were boxed out and very disappointed.

    I would prefer we give Kirk the benefit of the doubt since he's been a pretty classy guy over the years and would never dream of dissing anyone here - not intentionally.

    Have a Happy New Year everyone.
    Mike

    I'm just glad he decided to share. The pics were amazing.

    Is the thread gone? Because that would def be a shame to delete all of those baseball card porn.

    No, but it IS locked. So it slid down a page or two.

    Unfortunately the pics from Kirk were removed. Those were some beauties.


    Thanks,

    At least one post of pics remains, not sure how many were there
    originally.


    Well said Mike.

    Good for you.

    That original thread was nothing short of spectacular. All that's left is what was quoted by other members.

    Happy New Year everyone!!!

    Bobby. I hope your passing is not imminent, but I am not sure given one or two of your posts in the thread. If you are in good health then perhaps you can post pictures of your collection as it sounds as though you have some really god items. Always love seeing people's cards.

    All the best. Eyebone
