Jason-Perlman9...He has emailed me out of the blue twice letting me know of a few awesome justice items that he found for sale.

John- UGA-1... He is a great guy who shares the love for Justice with me. I enjow talking with him about our collections.

Greg- dcGreg25...He is a fair moderator and does a great job at supervising the board. He always congratulates me whenever I post a new justice pickup on the forum and it's good to know that someone else on GUU has love for justice as well.

Mark Sutton.

Long time forum member Mark Sutton recently opted to leave the game used hobby. In doing so, he opened up his collection (which must have taken a couple of decades to put together) to the many friends he made over the years, with the intention of not making a single cent off of anything. Truly a classy move by a stand-up guy.

I wish Mark all the best in his future endeavors and hope that he will not be a stranger to GUU just because he doesn't collect GU items anymore.

Brandon Allen. Today I received a large box in the mail and it was from Brandon Allen with 2 mint old hickory bats autographed with a letter enclosed. What a super individual and a down to earth person.

Also a shout out to those members who were very active when I first joined, but have decided to no longer participate. I can honestly say, many of them I miss. Their posts showed their tremendous knoweldge and passion for the hobby.

Pat Durkin
Brett Herman
Bob Koppel
Tim Byington
John Taube

and probably a dozen more I have forgotten... the point is that there is a ton of great people out there that love collecting and really do care about helping others

I hope I have just been able to pass on a little of what I have recieved

There are also those quiet, behind the scene indivduals who help others, but aren't so out there and obvious to everyone.

I agree that the list is long, and everyones efforts are appreciated.

Re: Who Do You Want To Give A Shout Out To? Juan Iglesias

Anyone here ever have a not so good experience with Juan Iglesias?
Be curious to know.

Pablo

From what I have read in the past Juan is one of the best.

Why would you ask that question?

I would have a difficult time believing so. Juan Iglesias and Andrew Lang are to individuals I would trust with my life! Both of these guys are in a class of their own!

Re: Who Do You Want To Give A Shout Out To?

I am unsure if there are many of you out there who have not dealt with Tim a www.hofbats.com, but I cannot say enough good things about him.

Tim has been very helpful to me in this hobby as I have been putting together my collection. He is the nicest guy in this business and each of you would be hard pressed to find someone with better service.

He always has several great bats available at fair prices, puts together a great LOA and has authentication services.

I just wanted to mention this because it seems that there are so many people in our hobby that are hard to deal with, but rarely do the good guys like Tim get mentioned.

Re: Who Do You Want To Give A Shout Out To?

Would like to give a shout out to Pat Durkin. I purchased two pair of Palmeiro batting gloves from 2005. The gloves show amazing use. I also picked up my favorite unique item, a sealed bottle of champagne from the day Palmeiro collected his 3000th hit! It's signed and inscribed by Palmeiro "3000 hit 7/15/05". Pat was very generous in his pricing and allowed me to pick up the items in person to avoid any damage to the bottle of champagne. Couldn't have asked for a more smooth transaction.
