For the record I did not find the Spano comment to be offensive, I only would have if I were in that type of moral realm. I am not, so it didn't bother me. I have had more scrutiny than most people here, I have always conducted my business with fellow board members with the professionalism that each of you deserved, my generosity is done because I love this hobby and this is my escape from the riggers of real life and I have been fortunate in my life to create the opportunities that allowed me to pass on my good fortune. I am not selling every card, I am keeping some unopened, my 52 set will continue to be built; my 52 mantle is not being sold. I am not leaving the boards, or buying cards in the future. This is a baseball card board, period. Some of you take it as gospel in life. I come here to get away, interact with my board member friends, see collections/cards, make deals, have contests and PSA put this board up to allow us to be able to do that. There are lines I won’t cross as there should be for all of you. If Mr. Fogel, or Mr. Spence came on the boards and decided to sell would they be questioned? Would Davillios collection? (Oh yea he’s changing his sets names). I am meeting a board member tomorrow to do a rather large transaction, I offered him the chance to come to my home, (he declined and wanted to meet at a public place) which is fine. I guess when we meet, and he sees I am actually a woman, that conspiracy will be finally put to rest as well. (Even though I have spoken to some board members on the phone) I appreciate all of you, I really do, and I wish you all knew how much you all mean to me.
Why do you get so much scrutiny?Is it because you are a female in a mostly male hobby or jealousy over your finances?I guess it doesn't much matter.Good Luck with your new endevor. Mike

exactly!
plus i thought "felicia" was outed as a man but i could be wrong....
Like Felicia, I come to these boards to get away from work. These boards have been a place to hide and talk about cards. Nothing more....nothing less. So who really cares who is a guy or a girl.....black or white.....young or old....yadda, yadda, yadda..... As long as we are good people (and Felicia and the huge majority here are) thats really all that counts.
Thanks for the fun and the opportunity to get away from life for awhile by reading these boards. Felicia, I am happy you are able to make these moves to better yourself. Good luck to you and when you needs a HR person in your company!! I am your man!! Good luck to you in your business venture.

Felicia, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to meet you in Vegas for our rendezvous from October 22-26th. That is the first full week of deer season in Louisiana and I have to keep my priorities straight. Maybe next time.
This board is so jaded but unfortunately, it's somewhat understandable.
Being in the real estate business as well, I can totally empathize.
A wise man once said, "Take care of your stuff now and there will be opportunties going 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

It's probably that "forward" thinking that got this lady some success.
Agree cards can be replaced, opportunities cannot.
