Re: To The Vulcan Who Banned Alberto
Actually, you are probably right that the hardest thing to believe about that story is that I, at one time, had a bunch of friends. In fact, I thought your comment was so funny I called all my current friends to take a look at your post. Unfortunately, he wasn't home when I called

Re: To The Vulcan Who Banned Alberto
Hello everybody ! My suspension ended today.
I try to see the positive effects:
1-How many friends
2- I must be more serious
But i want you to know that i was so angryfor the suspension that i unstitched the patch from the lower part of the jacket and i re-sewed it on the left sleeve so it is ready for the next GF auction.
True..not true...you know me better now

Re: To The Vulcan Who Banned Alberto
I am glad Alberto was reinstated! I think his original post just goes to show how doing ones homework can save thousands of $$$. Not saying that the GF warmup is not authentic but by looking at Getty It would seem that the warmup with the patch on the arm was worn more often than any other. One would have to watch every game from the season that the warmup was worn to rule out the GF patch placement.
This hobby is an expensive risky one at times and sadly so. Many of these risks can be avoided by linking up with fellow collectors and experts and by doing extensive research. I am never afraid to call an auction house and ask questions and if I get a vague, evasive answer then the question itself is answered!
Alberto has a great collection and is a wonderful resource for BB collectors. He should be applauded not banned, although i do see why he was suspended.
