    I don't feel. I like simple math. Plaids can get a bit hairy.

    Practice makes perfect & nobody is perfect. So, practice being nobody and be perfect !

    Only if the shirt has mustard stains on it.

    Not at all - happens all the time. As long as the positive P&L is there all that matters.

    There is a lot of risk in the crackout game anyhow.

    I know one dealer felt cherrypicked when a certain forum member took a cellphone picture of an AH Kennedy on the counter of the shop where he found it so that he could share it on this forum. The customer beside him said "hey, isn't that an AH Kennedy". image

    I wear Hawaiian shirts but I am not a dealer. Could this have the subtle disadvantage that
    dealers might think I am trying to cherry pick them? (I am not.)

    Cougar has it right.

    I bought something at the last Baltimore, as soon as the deal was done, the seller wanted to know, was that a valuable piece or not. I told him I didn't know either, but I would spend some time researching it! He made money, I got something to work on, we were both happy.
