  1. ya that was it... I vaguely remember that we also had a real pogo with the stick spring as well. I've seen videos randomly of course where people do flips, mine where never that powerful even though I might have only weighed 110 pounds Ah childhood. The Lord remembers. Those toys were of a time, but right after the age of doing those well, kids where then getting bikes in a time-honored tradition, and that was all she wrote!
  2. Does anyone remember those pogo discs that looked like that in the 80's to early 90's? with an air bubble on top of the disc to hold with your feet that went through the disc and was bigger on the bottom to then "pogo-on?" Idk why I asked for that toy, more surprising is idk why my mother said yes! I can still hear her now, why do you want this? And the subsequent days of washing dishes with her staring out the window with the "pogo" on the porch, and me saying something like, "after we're done, I'll see if I can still do it!" Just to either prove a point or make her happy I forget which hahaha. Just to see her face and hear the "uh-huh!" but of course I did. Problem is, you didn't go "high nor was it very hard to do" and there weren't many "tricks" that you could do with it and etc.
  3. I submitted grades last night, it doesn't show responded as recorded, I can give a time stamp screenshot if needed? Also when you tagged everyone in this thread, I didn't receive that notification either
  4. I AM MAN IRON~ Osborne Ozzy backwards Man bat man
  5. Unfortunate that it is only replacement cost of the book and not funds as well... With the extensive market of the past couple of years. Maybe a receipt helps prosecution with just how much damage the scammer caused? I can see it help investigation, but not sure how it deals with the cgc guarantee. Idk
  6. I saw you post that elsewhere , awesome pickup!
  7. Suppose I could use them as a handkerchief or belt or swag like and attach it to my wallet 😜
  8. I thought about trying to rotate that 90 degrees but it wouldn't work, and I think that is the point of the contest. Problem is the family member had socks, but they'd be too small for me. I plan on making a hand puppet or idk, just said to be wearing them and didn't say do it proper. I wear chuck Taylors anyway, or sandals would be equaling shaming.
  9. Flannels yes, even checked a thrift store or two and was met with "we don't have an argyles section!" And "we only sell women's 2nd hand clothing" Found plaid even, but Argyle is pretty specific! I tried and did find some, a nearby family member had some
  10. Do you know how hard it is to find something Argyle at the last minute? Flannels yes, even checked a thrift store or two and was met with "we don't have an argyles section!" And "we only sell women's 2nd hand clothing" Found plaid even, but Argyle is pretty specific!
  11. Do you know how hard it is to come up with some thing argyle at the last minute?
  12. Slow boat modern 4 books Delivered late 1/29/24 Received sfg ?? Gei ?? Qc or shipped ??
  13. The thought is... Crack a slab enough to pull out inner well replace with other inner well from other slab, send in as reholder or mechanical errors, cgc not noticing the tamper or that book looks different than the assigned grade and going through with the reholder. Cgc essentially missed the tampering and was resealing it for the individual among other stuff, under the guise of reholders, even directs became Newsstand and etc things obvious that cgc missed
  14. Basically all that, but there was a common denominator between the slabs, of a certain submitter, that called into question all of his submissions. That is how they narrowed it down to tree fiddy in slabs
  15. I'm not sure that you're missing much, here is the official statement, beyond that we have thoughts to a submitter seller This is what cgc has stated though, I haven't reread over it on a while
  16. I shouldn't have called it "chump" change, in any "pr" funds that is still very generous given the impact and scope of things, I just do remain hopeful that it makes sense to the powers that be at CGC, but could be why they haven't made a blanket statement as to "compensation" and that maybe relying on the same word of mouth for those affected will be in good Faith. I hope anyway
  17. @DC# I'm not saying you're wrong I'm just saying it wouldn't be out of the question if you could prove it with a receipt
  18. They should do it in good faith to save face, it is exactly what a near million dollar to billion dollar company would do, given they're sticking to only tree fiddy books. That is chump change, the least they could do, provided you can prove it with a receipt and aren't just trying to take advantage. He didn't say no. that is all I'm saying. Some people didn't over pay and what other "case by case basis" would there be? Why wouldn't he just state replacement cost then?
  19. hence the need for a receipt Also to add that specific question was in the videos... Matt Nelson didn't say "no" just that they would assess on an individual basis.... I wouldn't stop the discussion just because they asked in a preliminary way for a receipt to gather their bearings is all
