What has happened to Sean (Ebay id - investinbaseball)?

Some of you know him from these boards- I forget his banned forum id- others may know him from the wide selection of sports cards for sale on ebay. He had excellent customer service (my experience) and always had plenty of vintage cards both graded and raw.
I know his personality rubbed some the wrong way so no snide remarks necessary. No ebay inventory in over a month. I'm just curious if anyone knows what the deal is.

Sean is doing great; I talk with him consistently. He has been transitioning into some new businesses. As to cards, he is still very actively buying via Invest In Baseball, though not selling much.

Good to know. Thanks.
Not trying to hijack the thread, but what happened with feartheterps as well? I know he was banned from here at some point, but was still active on eBay after that. There aren't any items for sale nor completed listings from him.

I’ve bought a lot from Lee in the past and yes he was once an extremely prominent member here and one that I enjoyed reading. Now that you mentioned it, I haven’t seen anything for sale from him in a little bit and I have him as a “saved seller” on eBay. I hope he is ok and doing well.
I might be wrong but try eBay ID: rhscards.
He was one of the first dudes I spoke with on these boards many years ago...
Did really well for himself from selling a psa 9 Pete Rose Rookie for $150,000 + and Winning Probstein’s chocolate eating contest lol
I had bought quite a few cards from Lee (feartheterps) as well. I would imagine some of the smaller and maybe even middle of the road sellers have been slowed down by the latest PSA turnaround times. Gone are the days of spending some money, subbing the cards, and selling them quickly to recoup the cash. I know it has changed the mindset of a few sellers
You are correct. I purchased something from Lee not too long ago and "rhscards" is his new eBay ID.

Had never correlated turnaround times with inventory - but I have noticed that there is less I want to buy than there used to be. The last EBay coupon had me really scrambling to find something and it used to be there were tons of buy it now choices just slightly over market price that a 10% discount made me want.
He's a seller I like to turn to for some odd / oddball pop 1's or low pops. He's a great seller also
Sean is a good dude. We met up in person once when I was in his neck of the woods, long before he started Invest In Baseball. I kept meaning to do a bulk sale to him, but never could get my list together.
