    This is not any kind of accussation but there is a lot of wrapper purchases equal to the rips on this board. It is a bit suspicious.

    Yeah. Those are the same exact box, for sure. There's no doubt.

    Yeah, well you're not going to get it. If anything, the denials and "playing the victim" will continue. That's the usual MO of this type. They are very good at trying to play on people's feelings; they've had lots of practice and have learned that they can get away with most anything. They have no moral fiber...

  • Im not dogging any questions heck i havent even had time to read all the posts yet i picked on from xanaduw and answered heck i cant type that fast or read that fast. I found out about this when it was already 6 pages long. and its becoming more and nmore obvious whatever i say here isnt gonna matter. For every one post i try to answer 6 more pop up slamming me again.

    All i can say is every pack bust on here was legit. and those who said they got nothing but crap you are exactly like the few people who slammed me on ebay. 36 people split a box 36 people cant get the money card look back through the rips the cards are there and not everyone posted who was in. All of a sudden i'm getting slammed and looking bad so everyone who didnt pull a card is jumping on the chit can me band wagon.

    Its even spread so far now because mrg pulled the payton rookie your almost accusing him of being in on something you want to believe is true. hell zef pulled the largent rookie and someone else pulled a rice also tyou gonna add those poor guys to this witch hunt to because you didnt get one. this is getting way out of hand

  • hey 80sJunkie/Gary,
    How can you assure me that my name and address was on the list that you gave to Steve? I need some type of proof that my packs were indeed shipped out to me. I need a tracking number. Did Steve send you any type of shipping information so that you could cross reference it with who paid you via paypal? I'm waiting until tomorrow for an answer from Steve.

    Don't pi$$ on my leg and tell me its raining.

    I have no stake in this as I didn't bust any packs, but this would make for a quick episode of Law & Order....

    I know this much is true: If you're guilty, it would be a good idea to admit it and get this over with. I can't imagine what will happen if you deny and something else happens to confirm guilt. Are you really deleting posts?

    I'd like to get his response to this.


  • My thoughts:

    1. I have a tendency to believe that most people are honest and am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, HOWEVER:

    2. I was involved in the 1st 1980's rip. I got nothing. That's fine and I can write that off as bad luck.

    3. When I first saw the Cards4Kids post, I thought "wow, what a great idea". Then I begain to wonder why a kid would be excited about getting a bunch of 1980's junk from players they've never heard of.

    4. Is it possible that the first 80's rips were a way to build up a sense of trust for the big payoff? (ie '78 BB rip or '84 FB)
  • MrGMrG Posts: 623 ✭✭✭
    I indeed edited many of my posts today. A few kind gentlemen steered me to Photobucket, and I replaced every single <50k scan with an alternative.

    I also did not shower today!

    Cheers,

    so you can post that you arent dodging questions, but you cant simply answer as to why 16 different people on ebay have concerns to you resealing packs/boxes. thats dodging! 16 people are not making it up.

    Nope, nobody is pulling zef or anyone else into your mess.

    That is exactly 2 responses from you, both in which you answered nothing yet attempted to implicate or involve people other than yourself in all this.

    BTW, you are reminding me of Patches OHoulihan and the 5 D's....dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge.

    First of all, there's absolutely no doubt that the 86/87 Fleer box is the one you bought on ebay. The little white dots under "Trading", the corner wear, the crease going across above the Bird..... I mean this would hold up in court as evidence.

    Secondly, 21 of the 33 items (wrappers, card lots, boxes) bought on ebay coincide with recent rips you've put together.

    Thirdly, BBCExchange has over 13000 positive feedbacks with no negatives and he deals mostly in unopened product. Even if you had a few people who held their feedback hostage, you still have 16 people out of 1600 who claim you tampered with unopened material. That's an inordinate amount, and the odds dictate that they can't all be either wrong or vengeful.

    Fourthly, let's see the collage or bar or whatever you've been making. I'm sure it's quite big with all the wrappers you've bought and received from board members.

  • This is just getting crazier you guys think what you want I can sit here all night and try to defend myself to the masses. If you were invloved in the rips and want me to answer something please pm me. because Im not gonna get anywhere trying to defend myself on the thread. I'll say it again all the rips on here have been legit and will do whatever it takes to prove that to whom it matters too. so goodnight for 2nite I feel like i aged 10 years in the last hour and im tired.

    The evidence, in its entirety, is completely overwhelming and beyond a shadow of a doubt.

    what rational person can dispute that???????

    PM's? NO WAY! EVERYONE deserves to see your answers in public! We could all be wrong...but questions need to be answered.
  • cohocorpcohocorp Posts: 1,371 ✭✭
    the collage is just a slap in the face excuse. there are alot of very sharp people on here and that is a real insult to their intelligence.

    you should stop sidestepping the question and trying to misdirect. just directly answer the questions posed. it shouldnt be that tough.

    Honestly guys, I'm not sure why MrG is suspicious in any way. Because he pulled the Payton? It seems some good cards have been pulled by other board members, so I'm not really sure where he would play in all this. Plus, he's been here since 05 and his Registry sets are quite impressive. Not sure why you think he's mixed up in all this.

    Gary, Admit the boxes are the ones you bought of e-bay. I didn't have
    a stake in the rips, but I do have a stake when you blatently lie about
    something on this boards to my friends. Did you actual think that every
    one here is that stupid? We have no life. We make a living outing scams
    and scammers on e-bay. Hell, the FBI should hire the bunch of us for internet
    scams. We're that good at it and we do it for free. This is for youimage

    he is admitting guilt by not answering the questions in an open forum. i certainly hope that nobody ever buys or sells to this joker again. he shouldnt be a part of the community.
  • yankeno why should i keep trying to defend myself when half the people who have posted were not involved in rips. guys like you are just jumping on the slaming bandwagon. other then the read and enjoying the bashing why should i keep posting here. Theres others who are important in this matter who deserve one on one answers away from all the bull this has turned into. This is like a bad news story you know nothing abbout the subject but your quick to join the bashing party.

    At this point folks, I strongly feel that there is enough evidence to involve Federal authorities... I am not a victim in this so I can't be the one to initiate the proceedings, but I strongly urge one of you to contact your local FBI office tomorrow... well in excess of $10,000 worth of material has been allegedly tampered with, with both the funds and the product crossing state lines... this is a VERY serious crime.
