last week. It was for a PSA 10 1995 Zenith Emmitt Smith Promo. I needed it for my set so I was bummed I forgot about it. Well today I open up a bubble mailer and say "huh its the card I forgot to bid on." Turns out Troy, aka FavreFan won the card and sent it to me just because he's a cool dude.

I still have to laugh that he chose to bid on the card that turned out to be one I fogot about.

Thanks Troy, I owe you one!

    He probably was trying to bid you up.

    Kudos for the kindness off Favrefan!

    No problem Matt. I only put in the minimum bid just in case you were bidding on it.

    Glad you liked it.

    That's pretty kooky. He could have inadvertently cost you a few dollars, but instead you forgot to bid and he won the card and sent it to you for nothing. The moral of the story: Everybody should buy cards and send them to me......

    ps- Matt (Lawnmowerman) unsolicitedly sent me a BGS 9.5 Ripken card, so I guess he's paying it forward.

    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts
