I agree with this. However, I will continue to express my disdain for the hard core pimps, pump and dumpers, and barkers And I would defend your right to an opinion as much as I would the right for someone else to express theirs. You understand civil liberties well for a Canadian. Haven't you heard? I'm just crazy. I don't consider auto contrarians crazy.

so wait? is this a joke? tom Brady from Brooklyn mass? I thought it was a joke then emails and user names were given... I think he was trying to be funny. My advice to him...don't quit your day job.

I feel the exact same way when I see ads for Marvel Spotlight # 6. I'm like "2nd appearance of Ghost Rider?" and these day's it's almost always for vol. 2, the 1979 issue with Star Lord. Wacky times... I think majority of us were confused but at least we kept it to ourselves and not rag on the OP. (thumbs u That was ragging? The OP thought it was "brutal"? Man, we got some thin skins around here. At the most it was mildly condescending and justice was served. The guy being condescending made himself look like a fool

Which one?

I'm flattered, but you're not my type. Ouch

I've had about one dozen non-paying buyers in my time here and zero motivation to bring it up for probation discussion. Why? So they can go and renege on someone else? So, what, all of a sudden you're into maintaining a sense of community? You're a grown man, I was just asking a question.

I'd agree if this also counted as yours. I figured that was for your benefit, whoop dee doo You'll see in an earlier post I raised many of the concerns you've voiced over the past couple years, respond to that one, if you can muster an original thought. I need to consult with my Oracle first.

How am I supposed to know which way to vote if the results are hidden?

Board memories are often faulty, when they work, it's usually an exaggerated version of the truth...someone said something, someone repeats it & then it quickly becomes truth. What does the following statement mean to you? You responded to it indirectly while quoting it here This guy has had a shady history almost since day 1. He's been nominated for the PL more than once ( please correct me if I'm wrong ). Someone made a lazy damning statement saying "he's been nominated for the PL more than once" then asked others to fact check him. So...has he ever been nominated to the PL? How many times? By who? Was it addressed? Was it successful (ie - added) The answer is clearly - who cares for most people. Minutes later, this exchange at the end of a larger string. Now with urgency... Agreed. That is the lynch mob mentality in action, since we're talking about patterns. Some people just don't care about the truth when a clearly shady guy is on the path to HOS. If people aren't going to fact check themselves & those agreeing with him don't care about the truth - the intent of the list is for it to remain respected by as many in the community as possible. An HOS full of bad dad & racist joke tellers will still get service here. My fault. He's totally innocent...and has always been so. Clearly I follow groupthink, please accept my sincere apologies. I know dude. Earlier I thought I sat on my remote, but it was my pitchfork. Mob duty is literally a pain in the arse I wish we had a doosh list for the auto contrarians.

But why put up with people like that? It makes it seem like his only crime was getting caught. Nobody should put up with it. I'm just basing my decision on the HOS process as it is now. Pages upon pages of all this back and forth shows that it is flawed. I personally believe that his transgression was worse than the Red Rocks incident. Hustruck openly tried to deceive the community whereas Red Rocks' crime was flipping. I think polls should be open instead of hidden as well (board ids) - this would help stop any favoritism. I disagree completely...and this is why I really was unhappy when the poll was pulled. Stuff like that should not happen. EVERYONE is entitled to an opinion. If the poll got pulled because a few people spoke up about it, won't that influence voting, too? Talking should take place before and after and the polls should be blind, no one should see the results till it's too late to influence people...and I firmly believe they should be in CG, not here. There are a lot more members than just the people who post on this thread. With all due respect, why isnt CGCboy/Hustruck in the HOS and why isn't there a poll back up? I saw a majority vote heavily in favor of having him in the HOS? Agreed.

This guy has had a shady history almost since day 1. He's been nominated for the PL more than once ( please correct me if I'm wrong ). Motive and intent? Obviously he's trying to use the boards to make money..not a crime as I can name a dozen people off the top of my head who do the same and they don't give a squirt about the "community". The issues are with the stream of lies and deceptions...it's ridiculous. Maybe he doesn't belong in the HoS by the letter of the "law", but the eyeball test has HoS written all over this guy.

I agree 100% He is a cancer. To me I feel like our members are a cut above the average collector. If we allow a person to do the things he does,we are just opening the door for anyone else who wants to come here and try the same scams,lies etc. Agreed. Unfortunately we have people here who will go out of their way to defend those people because of the way the rules are set up.

I think most people can spot a doosh pretty easily on here. There are plenty of people who should probably not be allowed to be here but because of the way the system is, they are allowed to commit multiple transgressions. As long as they "make it right", they are off the hook...until the next time they do it. The best bet is for people to make a personal list of who they won't deal with

Any 9.9's?

You forgot "signed" also. It's someone who doesn't really have books that are worth a hoot (until after they've "processed" them). For example: I don't really see anything wrong with it

What is a "manufactured collectible" dealer? Is it someone who gets books slabbed, pressed, flips? All of the above? It seems kind of silly to be calling someone that in a thread that's about what's hot on Ebay at the moment.

He works his BUTT off and subs a ton of books so odds are that he would pull more 9.9 / 10.0 books Plus Onsite grading is the key ! Plus a lot of moderns like IDW books have a thicker stock of cover and interior paper. If he gets first pickings right out of an unopened case, I'm sure it's not super tough to pick out winners. The other dude is saying he wouldn't have any trouble picking out 9.9 copper age books, which are a totally different animal.

Do we really need more low ballers and scammers?

I think capfreak is all grown up by now.GI is what,going into middleschools? Different guy they're talking about. The Captain America fan who kept pestering Oakman was named Justin and he was "slow". Apparently Sharon spoke with his mother on the phone to confirm who he was.
