They have a bunch of raw cards, and then some in KSA, and BVG holders. Just curious if anyone has dealt with them on raw or crackouts?

TIA

Have bought from many times. He has a large following for his hockey cards, and quite often realizes strong prices. Has some good stuff and also some unique items.

Careful though; his descriptions are sometimes either vague or downright deceitful, and he clearly overgrades. He will usually accepts returns, but this depends on his mood. He is seldom gracious--mostly I have found him to be surly.

For example, I bought a lot of blank-backed OPC inserts from him once and he scanned the back of every card except the two with pen marks. Another time I bought a lot of Parkhurst cards only to discover that about half of them had transparent glue on the front (not really visible on the scan and he opted not to mention it in his ex++ description).

Hope this helps. Eyebone

I have bought from him before and will never again.

Hope this helps.

Ted,

Like the above said, guy is a serial liar and important info omitter. Have bought from him a few times until last year/year before, got tired of getting bent over on his descriptions. He made my "Never..And I mean Never... buy from Again" list in 2008 I believe and of course will never see my money again...Ever!

Steer Clear!!!

Think of him as the "Canadian Larry Fritsch"

Look over scans good, ask questions.

I buy Raw from him all the time, I have 2 orders on the way right now

They have some rare stuff, ie R314 type5, V300 etc.

I once had a lost package from him about 2 years ago and he refunded right away.

No probs.

I bought a raw card from him a few weeks ago. I'd say it was graded accurately but the card didn't present quite as well in hand as it did in the scans. He shipped it very quickly although it came in a PWE (luckily no damage). Overall, I got a good price so I can't complain.

I have bought many 1936 WWGs and V100s from him over the years. Almost everyone selling "raw" cards on ebay overgrades and he is NO exception. I factor that in when I bid and I have never had a problem.

He is from Quebec need we say more about is surleyness. Have bought from him before and never again.

just about every single (52 topps) card looks trimmed to me, just curious if I am paranoid....Guess I am steering clear

Bought a bunch of NM-MT and MINT 1969 OPC hockey cards not too long ago. Looked good in the scans.

Received a bunch of EX and EX-MT cards.

Downgrade the expectations by 2 full grades and you might be happy.

I've bought twice from him. The first was a NM/MT 1980 OPC set. He did not mention that every team card was marked on the back. He did offer a full refund. The seconds purchase was 2 complete sets 1985 and 1987. Neither was packed correctly and all the cards had a nice corner ding. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!
