Re: Top 5/10 Hobby Good Guys
No particular order....
1. Tim Byington
2. Mike Specht
3. Dave Bushing
All of the above have been very helpful for me in the last few years. Tim and Mike have always been great answering emails. I cant even count how many times I asked Mike for a players records, or Tim his thoughts on my next purchase. I also have respect for Mr. Bushing. They all do a lot behind closed doors that a lot dont see. But I sure appreciate it!

Re: Top 5/10 Hobby Good Guys
I would have to say my number #1 good guy i have came across in the game used buisness is milt bryon.He is the best guy that anyone could ever meet and do biusness with.I can not say enough good things about the guy.I am not really into game used items as much as i am into autographed items.And i would have to say that hot corner sports were the best for me saying i am a steelers fan.And as far as this board goes,i have had the pleasure of dealing with what i think are two of the best-jason edelman and bob koppel.They are two of the nicest people i've ever had contact with on here.And another nice guy is the owner of bbdiamonds are forever.

Re: Top 5/10 Hobby Good Guys
All mentioned so far are assets to the hobby. I would like to add Mark Hayne (Gridiron Exchange) and Jim Yackel (Jim's Jerseys) to the list. I have purchased from both and have learned a lot in the process.

Re: Top 5/10 Hobby Good Guys
My list of hobby good guys is pretty long ... yes, there are some bad eggs, for sure, but there are many great people in this hobby. A few greats that pop to mind are, alphabetically, Brian Bayne, Chris Cavalier, Denny Esken, Mike/FraudFinder!, Barry Meisel (and others at MeiGray), Eric Stangel, Warren/BTPH, Howard Wolf, and many more. I'm sure I'll be kicking myself for having momentarily forgotten key people as soon as I post this.
Always looking for top NBA game worn items of superstar and Hall-of-Fame-caliber players (especially Kobe, LeBron, MJ, Curry and Durant). Also looking for game worn items of all players from special events (e.g., All Star Game, NBA Finals, milestone games, etc.). Please contact me at gameusedequip2@hotmail.com. Thank you.
