Anyone hear from Bob Beerbohm lately?

detroit "wouldn't of" traded fielder if he "could of" [for you, mitch] hit that pitch more consistently.

 

If you try to express yourself more clearly, maybe I could understand.

Remember that english is not my first language (and I have considerable difficulties expressing myself, no matter how it might appear), please. :foryou:

 

cecil fielder is an american professional baseball player who was recently traded by the detroit tigers to the texas rangers; a "curve" is a pitch in said sport. i was just having a little fun with your "curve of unforgiveness" usage.

 

the "wouldn't of" and "could of" points were a dig at mitch, who cannot be made to understand correct grammar. i made the dig at mitch because, well, i can't help myself.

You seem like a nice chap vaillant, but please, get off your sanctimonious high horse.

 

Yeah - that's my horse pardner!

 

I just haven't paid for it yet.

 

I paid for mine. But it hasn't shipped yet....I thought Shetland ponies could fit in a mini-van? (shrug)

 

Hmm let me chew that over...

 

:idea:

 

Ahem, you're confusing my sanctimonious nature with my short-legged intellect!

 

Ha, take that, Bembridge scholars.

 

Nothing of the sort. Short legs make the trip last longer.

I’ve been horseriding only once, and I still have a nice memory of it, but won’t be trying again. :)

 

Horses or not, you have gotten my point. If it helps' the case at hand, someone could try to contact him, but it seems it’s easier to laugh. :baiting:

No. in this case laughing is much harder - but sometimes it's necessary.

Did you read the entire thread? The OP has been texting, calling, emailing and screaming out his window to the guy for months.

I don't recall laughing. ;)

 

And my point, which you should've gotten by now, is that you were simply reiterating what had already been said in somewhat patronizing terms.

 

Not to mention that you were judging other boardies who have dealt with, or have known, Mr. B for decades.

 

It's jolly nice of you stick your oar in, however redundant your contribution may have been. But in future before you rush to take a stand, either for or against anyone, I'd suggest you remind yourself that there is a vast, exhaustive amount of knowledge on this forum regarding every single player in the GA market.

Bob Beerbohm is a literal piece of mess. So is Mitch Mehdy aka Saul Goodman defending him (I believe they got their law degrees at the same school).

 

Beerbohm ripped and pissed me off so many times at cons over the last 10 years I've lost count. Never buy a raw comic from that SOB.

 

Mitch,

 

Never once was Matt a crybaby, he just stated his case and you went on the attack, even after I PM'd you and shared the facts. You are on your own with this one.

 

BTW: Not always does it matter whether a person has one post or ten thousand, as it is not the quantity of posts, but rather the honesty, integrety, and intelligence in them.

 

Dwight

 

If you read Pat, its innocent until proven guilty all the way. Not defending anything but trying to find out the truth. It is posts like these which make ""rush to judgments"

a dangerous thing. The evidence is clear now, that BRD bob appears NOT to have honor a deal…a big deal of $3600…..and its a crying shame.

 

and to the poster….if he ripped you off many times over 10 years…why would you ever buy anything after one?

Any respect Mitch "had" on the boards was "minimal" I think it is now "negligible" :screwy:

 

To try to get to the "truth" kill the messenger…..if that what it takes here, so be it…But everybody who knows bob,should believe he deserves a fair investigation for the truth…..and in this case it appears board members have been wronged.

Sorry Dwight. I didn't mean to drag you further into this so much as state the facts on the boards here. When Mmheady started really going on the attack path without letting me explain myself at all, I just defaulted and told everyone to ask you if I'm real. Like I said guys. This guy has stolen from me. To Mmheady your questions 1. Because I like to buy pulps behind the scenes. Most of that 22,000 in feedback is from selling non-pulps. I dont tend to sell them anymore. Most of it is from selling appliances and electronic accessories. I never bothered signing up on the board because I had no reason to talk to any of you. Don't take offense. It's just that I'm introverted. I tend to buy pulps more then I enjoy conversation about them. And I've been aware of the board for about a year and a half. But when you have a guy who has done what Bob does, even though I'm sure Bob will continue down this track and I wont see my money again, I do like to make sure he doesn't do it to other people. Lastly, instead of doing the whole equivocating "claim" thing you seem to be fond of, and is clear that you keep falling back on, why instead of flinging continuing questions at my credibility, why don't you just pm me through ebay. OR call up Bob and ask him. I'm sure he'll at least say something about it, even if he doesn't admit to the transaction (which I've already proven on these boards took place). 2. If you look through the pages of this post, I first copy and pasted a paypal transaction showing the deal, and when that wasn't good enough, I have already posted a screen shot of it again. It shows payment. It shows who it was to. It shows what is was for. Everything you want. Unless you think I have the ability to hack paypal, this question is moot. 3.He said he had misplaced the book and would mail it along with the others. At first the guy was perfect with communication. Courteous. Apologetic. And he loves weaving tales about his woes. When he used the right names for reference (because I did business with them to on a regular basis), I felt there was absolutely nothing to worry about. Basically he traded on his daughter's story, and his three decades old car crash (which sounded as if it happened last week when he told me about it), some sort of nearing surgery for something else that was to save his life (it got confusing here trying to follow him and my eyes glazed over a little) and most importantly some of your reputations, in order to make the deal. And yes he's still selling on ebay. He ignores all my calls, emails, messages through ebay, and texts now. He even changed his number to one where he lets the mailbox get full (but I'm unaware if it's to dodge me, or for other reasons). As a lawyer mmheady (as I'm almost certain you are one at this point by the wording of your texts, even though I know nothing about you), instead of trying to convince the jury of your peer group here that I'm a fishy suspect with eyebrows like Groucho Marx and hunched over like "I spy"., talk to your friend....ahem client. *cough*, and see what he has to say about it? If I seem to be a little harsh at this point, that's purposeful. If you have a question to ask that hasn't already been asked and answered, shoot. I'll do my best to answer it. But continuuing attacks like this should be below you as a mature adult. Thank you for your consideration. - M

 

 

Matt, Matthew, M, or Rookie......

 

If you think you can come into this fourm and post ONE TIME and accuse a 40 year historic collector/ dealer of fraud....a criminal offense....and not get asked some tough questions and then CRYBABY about it in the above post, then you have a lesson to learn ...."Sonny"

 

Let me begin by saying..".I believe you" ...NOW.... At no time did I attack you on a personal basis, you took it that way because of a lack of experience on this board and the high standard that members' post are held to, But since you are a newbe, and you were not aware of all of the tricksters, pressers, flippers, liars, etc on this board as well as in you life I am gonna give you a pass this time.

 

Bob is not a friend of mine, but I have know him for many many years and I want to set the record straight as far as I am concerned. He has never stolen, committed fraud or anything else in the dealing that I have had with him in the last 30-35 years. That is a lot of history.

 

I am not ,however, Bob's babysitter. It appears that Bob needs to "man" up and return the money plus interest or send all the books and still give a refund of some sort for al the trouble he caused you. I hope he does for everybody.

 

You treated me in your post, like Bob treated you.......less than a mature man...you called it.......time to grow up.... "Sonny"

 

 

You've been on here for two years and only have just over 2000 posts - that's pretty lazy don't you think?

 

I have taken back things before I have said over the 2K posts, but for the most part this forum is very unforgiving when it comes to making charges and then proving them.

In this case, it appears to be that Bob might have delegated his business operations to other persons whom have become either overwhelmed or are just plain lazy. I do not believe Bob would defraud persons from the get go……I just cannot believe that…..

Way too harsh. Valiant appears to have been trying to effect some sort of solution/reconciliation/whatever here. It doesn't appear there is one short of BB starting to make amends by sending the pulps (if he still has them and the buyer still wants them) or refunding the money. Even then, this episode is a body blow to his reputation -- at least in my eyes -- unless he has some plausible explanation for what happened. If the facts are as they have been presented, a plausible explanation seems hard to conceive.

1. How in the world does it matter whether he "delegated his business operation to other persons?" It's his name, his business and his history of ripping people off in one fashion or another through delays, outright failure to delivery goods or undisclosed restoration.

2. Who cares whether he intended to rip someone off or not? He's clearly avoiding the people he owes $ or books.

Mitch, I've tried to remain sympathetic to Bob's situation, giving full weight to his family's health issues, but the mounting evidence of unacceptable business practices sure seems to outweigh the mitigating circumstances.

 

To be fair, I'm probably not be the best judge of Bob as a dealer having only had that one brief encounter with Beerbohm Charities, Inc. but, I'm requesting a powdered wig and black handkerchief from Flex Mentallo as I want to be ready when the verdict comes in.

And FYI I defended you, in the last email which we exchanged, because he is really convinced he has all the right, while he clearly has not, but he does not see it.

 

Unless BLB has concocted yet another fantasy scenario (which is certainly possible), I presume that conversation was about a The Atomic Submarine #1 lobby card.

 

After I filed the complaint with ebay - and provided them with the link to his re-listing of that very same lobby card that BLB was claiming I had "stolen" from him - he suddenly ended the listing.

 

Strangely enough, the "stolen" item is - as of 1 minute ago - back up for sale in his ebay store. Go figure.

Like I've said before, it never ends with him (just ask CGC).
