JJJ started riding a broom around in a cape, black pointy hat, hook nose and dared us to look. In all seriousness, your attitude is the same as a lot of us had early on with the Jason Ewert/FF 3 affair. ‘It can’t be Ewert, he’s a well known and respected member of the hobby. No way he trimmed that book.’ As the board detectives dug further, though, it turned into: ‘Holy , it was Ewert! ‘ Y'all won me over. Seriously, I thought at first there was some ghost chasing going on. BUT... history has taught me that some people cannot get enough of a place and return even when no one wants them around anymore... so... yeah... totally buying into the idea that JJJ is DD.

kav Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I admired JJJ for years. I'm not really sure how I feel now. For me it was when someone PMd me to ask him what he thought of Cupcak. They said no way will he say anything bad about Cupack because he is Cupcak and he just cant do it. I said naw. But thats exactly what happened. Then the thing with the pics-sure a pic wouldnt necessarily prove anything but not posting a pic in my opinion did. greggy and The Lions Den 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here, mate, and it feels like you're throwing it back in our faces. Why use a money order when you know we'd be looking for something like PayPal so we can verify your ID when sent/received, whereas a money order gives us no info, and you know that. Work with us here, or you're making things look worse for yourself in the court of public opinion. Speak for yourself. I’m not giving him the benefit of the doubt. I’m not going to ask him for proof he’s not DD either. I’m 100% certain it’s him. Those of us that have been around long enough to see his board shtick from Day 1 all know it.

That's crazy talk. Buying from or selling through Heritage, Link, Connect is crazy? I've had nothing but great experiences. And between those three alone, the selection and service is unequaled, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just reviewed all of our PMs since Halloween. I can't find a single one where you asked me what I thought of Cupcak, Cupack, or whatever spelling you want to use to refer to the seller KellySH. Not a one. Can I copy and paste all of our messages in the name of transparency, in chronological order? Or is that against board guidelines, I'm not sure on that issue? Or you can post my response to your question of my opinion of this seller if it indeed exists as you say it does. Be nice to have a chance to review because it's not in my PMs and I don't erase any.

shadroch Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Did Kav mention PMing you? Not that I see. As I said, you best move is to slink away and return under yet another shill id in a few months. But we all know you won't do that. Your ego won't let you.

Addressing the autographs, since that is what we were discussing when you asked. His level of expertise at forgeries: "I think if he was an autograph expert, he wouldn't have been arrested for forgeries. How bad at it did he have to be? How obvious to get arrested when guys like Tonfulle have been selling tens of thousands of dollars of horrific forgeries continuously, right out in the open on ebay, year after year?" Matt and I were discussing forgeries and you interjected, "What do I think of him" immediately after a series of posts about authentic and inauthentic autographs.

I would expect you to say screw that guy not 'well I dont see anything wrong with his current listings'. If Tonfulle had some listings that looked legit to you would you defend him?

Then, later I mentioned that it's disappointing that I can't even say that these are all good, which they are, IMO, I collect HOF sports signatures. Never made a secret of calling myslef an autograph hound, did I. So I should jump on the bandwagon and say, Look at these forgeries this fiend is selling. I hope he dies 1000 deaths", when IMO they are not forgeries? C'mon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
