Hazu - New to the boards, but have met Rube!

ehazuka · December 26, 2008 4:11AM

Hello guys,

Just a note that I'm new here and am having a DEVIL of a time navigating, so please bear with me! I collect the '52T bases set and am enjoying the chatter/banter that goes on out here on these boards!!!

I have met Rube (well, online here at least!); a real nice guy that tried to give me some pointers. He told me he started a thread for me, but do you think I can find it!?!?!?! ... also, Rube, I saw I had 3 new messages, and they were all from you. However, once I read it (and didn't immediately reply) it seems that since it's not NEW any longer, that I can't get BACK to it/them TO REPLY!??!??!?!?

Anyways, I hope to join in on these chats - to provide some thoughts but more likely to get some education!

If anyone has any pointers, bring em on!

(FINALLY got me a '52T Mantle ... PSA 1 ... beat to crap, but about a month ago I stumbled upon a Buy-it-Now for what seemed like a fair price ($3200) - so I got MYSELF an xmas present!!!)

Get lost you moron..............

I mean Hey welcome to the boards!!

(I do trust that you know I was only kidding with the first comment)

stormsurge · December 26, 2008 4:16AM

First congratulations on the 52T Mantle!

As for Rube, I think I should tell you to always stay out of knife range!! (joking, great guy).

I have no idea who you are but I'll be glad to help out. You're a invaluable member of this forum.

Don't watch Rube while he's eating.
Never buy wax packs from anyone named Gary.
Don't make bets with joestalin.
CDsNUTS really is nuts.
Fandango and Fandang0 are not the same person.
There is no secret Santa Clause.

That should get you started.

CDsNUTS really is nuts.
Fandango and Fandang0 are not the same person.

Dont make Tonya mad.
Dont stand near Rube when he is blowing up stuff
Don't fake your own death (we've caught onto that scam now)

ehazuka · December 26, 2008 4:31AM

That's ok. I can take a joke. Heck, I've met your son.

ehazuka · December 26, 2008 4:33AM

fattymacs - yeah, I'm beginning to think this was a MISTAKE!

I'm being beaten-down rather quickly!

Blackborder · December 26, 2008 4:37AM

Oh and I almost forgot. 6-40 centering is still a 9 by PSA standards.

Oh that journey. Yeah, that was one of the first threads I read out here a while back .... sorry, but if he ever gets, say, a '52T Pee Wee in PSA 8, I'd entertain the trade ...

Alan Nicely?!?!?!?

Blackborder · December 26, 2008 10:35AM

Seems odd that you joined 15 months ago, and just started posting today.

ehazuka · December 26, 2008 10:52AM

Decided to make some time to fumble around. Suffice it to say, work was slow today so here I am.

Blackborder · December 26, 2008 10:55AM

Snowed in the last 15 months?

ehazuka · December 26, 2008 11:05AM

Browsed but didn't contribute. Began today.

If you give me Santa, I can do that deal

ehazuka · December 26, 2008 10:17PM

MickeyMantle24 ... when you ask if I'll give you Santa, too, for the PSA 3<--> PSA 1 Mantle trade, I don't SUPPOSE that you meant this "specimen"!??!?!!?

bman90278 · December 26, 2008 11:09PM

Welcome to the boards, but I wouldn't be bragging to the whole world that you know and like Rube.

Just kidding, welcome!
