What a "collection".... What a "collector"...
For admirers of rdeversole's "collection" shown off here as personal collection "highlights" last week, he listed another of his personal collection highlights:
From my perspective, there is nothing wrong in America with being a small scale entrepreneur... just own what you are... a dealer.
To answer the question "where is the love"... I feel our board is abused to have just been shown his "highlights" last week in anticipation of him marketing them on eBay. It more or less killed what had been a well liked thread here. He did the same thing in another thread recently which I won't draw notice of until after that auction ends for fear of giving him more free advertising in an auction environment.
The particularly strong need to be observant here comes from my experience observing this particular dealer habitually portraying himself as a communal collector when in practice he is a (non-forthcoming) dealer. I need to be careful not to tell broader stories which could be perceived to bemoan the person's character. But the collecting community deserves to know the truth about posting practices for the person who is constantly on here trolling for new inventory and giving people the impression that he is generally just one of us collectors.Comment

Beautiful Bat And So Is The Helmet On MLB Auctions! I Disagree Kind Sir, Wouldn't A Dealer Only Deal? A "Hoarder" In My Book Never ISells Anything! Collectors Change Their Mind All The Time. Maybe Next Year I Want To Collect Camo Jerseys So I Sell All The Jerseys I Have Now To Make Room. That Makes Me A Dealer? I'm Just Kind Of Confused By Your Definition Of Collector And Dealer? Maybe The Votto Collector Wants That Helmet On MLB Auctions And Needs Some Extra Cash To Make The Purchase.Comment

Re: Joey Votto Player Collection
Why do you keep hating on JDEVERSOLE? You mention that this WAS an enjoyable thread. Who says it still isn't? Just because you don't agree with something he is doing doesn't mean everyone feels that way. He isn't breaking any forum rules. Leave the guy be. As another member said, maybe he wants to keep the cash flowing so he can get something else he wants. Either way, you look bad for posting about him. Then to do it twice or more makes it look like you're stirring the pot.Originally posted by dplettnIsn't this the same pair of cleats available from eBay member rdeversole today for sale that GUU member rdeversole showed off on this very thread as a "highlight" of his collection this week?

I'd like to commend JDEVERSOLE for NOT responding to the negativity and not getting involved in the drama.Comment

Re: Joey Votto Player Collection
Hating is the wrong word. Where Eversole and Eversole's ways are present, I simply try not to be there. So I guess I can only say he ruined this thread as a place for me to share my own Votto collecting.
To answer your question more generally... when I first met Eversole he convinced me to doubt the negative things I'd heard from others about him. I gave him the benefit of the doubt and learned over time the reason that Ryan was so convincing is that he believes himself that what he says is true irregardless as to whether his statements are 0 % true or 5% true.
Is it breaking a GUU rule to show off your collection in a highlights thread and then list it for sale very, very shortly thereafter? Well... is it in keeping with the spirit of our fine forum? I don't think so.
I apologize that my own outspoken nature regarding certain folks and certain practices are not to your liking.Comment

Re: Joey Votto Player Collection
Happy to have added this recently...2013 GU Team Canada Batting Helmet. Really wanted to add a "new style" Reds batting helmet to the PC, but after seeing what the 2013 Reds helmet of Joey's sold for I decided to add this one on the "cheap".
