Re: Some Hall of Famer Cards You Don’t See Every Day
This strip card is the rookie card of Ross Youngs, even though it says Pep Young. Very confusingly, because there is another player named Pep Young, but Ross was also sometimes called Pep, and the “s” was often omitted unintentionally by card companies. But Pep Young played after Ross retired and never played for the… -

<< <i> << <i>How is freezing my funds and denying me access to MY MONEY protecting me? >> By your own admission, they did not do that until after you refused to cooperate.

Re: Why ?

Re: A new, thought-provoking ethics question...
Based on the way the question is presented I don't see this as a question of ethics...it's a simple buy/sell transaction. The seller sold junk silver, the buyer bought junk silver...both unknowing of the actual contents, both entering into a transaction willingly, both receiving what they consider to be fair value at the… -
