Collector to Collector Classifieds

Re: Collector to Collector Classifieds

Bottom line is.......


This wouldnt be in issue if people wouldnt have posted comments on his for sale thread.


As far as multiple identities....no idea and I dont care. But I do know that a lot of you egged Scott on by posting comments in one of his classified ads.

I couldve cared less if he bumped his thread every week. The man is trying to get some extra cash, it happens. If you want your item at the top, bump it up.

Its not like Im seeing Rose or Mantle bats for sale anyways. We are talking about $10-$60 items. Let it all go and move on.

This is a pretty good reason why I dont post on here anymore, but again, I thought I would give my 2 cents on the matter....

AGREE 100 % ON ALL 5 POINTS

THAT IS WHY I ALSO STAY AWAY FROM POSTING . IRONIC HOW THE SAME PEOPLE WHO AGREE WITH CHRIS' POST AND USE THIS BOARD THE MOST ARE THE SAME ONES WHO BREAK THE RULES . WHEN IT GETS SHUT DOWN THEY WILL ONLY HAVE THEMSELVES TO BLAME

Re: Collector to Collector Classifieds

Chris:

As long as no rules are being broken, I have no problem with Scott's posts. If I decide not to buy anything, I just hit another post with something I do have interest in. If the items aren't particularly valuable or rare, who cares? Not everyone one in the hobby collects high-end items. And the name-calling, on both sides, was getting a bit old.

Agreeing to disagree about the value of Scott's sale posts is one thing...sniping in the manner that has been going on is quite another.
Thanks, Chris, for making policies more clear.

Chris ,
This is what I was referring to. Just so you know.

While I appreciate your opinion (there's my PC'ness for the day) you are absolutely incorrect. This would not have been an issue had Scott/Jays1fan used a little common courtesy in bumping his many, many posts in which he relisted the same items over and over. Also, had he kept his listings to 'game used' items and not five and dime earings and necklaces we would not be here either.

I myself am a low end collector. I collect on a very meager budget. I would never begrudge anyone for collecting inexpensive items. This was never really an issue of dollar amount. But Scott cleary circumvented the rules any which way he could. Had he used a little self control he wouldn't have become such a nuisance.

Re: Collector to Collector Classifieds

And the nonsense continues...this is none of my business and I'm done with posting anything in this thread, but it just gets so rediculous. There never should have been a piece of jewelry that had NOTHING to do with GU memorabilia what so ever posted in the classifieds. Just wanted to get that out, and I'm just going to watch.

TA (aka Doug) -

If you prove you were wrongfully accused, I will make a Public Apology on the forum to you...

But do you see the pattern you have taken? Maybe just bad timing, but:

1) Jays1Fan gets Banned 2/2/10
2) TransAm becomes new member 2/2/10
3) Your FIRST post is in the thread that got Jays1Fan banned (this is date and time stamped, so this is not theoretical)
4) You take offense to a statement aimed a member you claim not to know
5) You ask how this member was banned if he didn't break the rules (how do you know he didn't break the rules)

Unless you are one in the same or you are a friend/family member, it doesn't add up...

Prove me wrong and win an apology... not being argumentative - just laying out the facts and the timeline...

- Chris

Chris ,
You and a few others are going to owe me a BIG Apology.
1) + 2) .. Same Day , so is that my fault ?
3) The post you are refering to is THIS one. It does NOT mention Jays being banned.
4) I already Explained that AND said I was sorry to NYC. What more do you want ?
5) MOST importantly .. I was refering to what SOX83 Said.
Prove you wrong ? Who are you Roger Clemens ?
I never through shots at you , you did to me remember ?

Re: Collector to Collector Classifieds

Read my previous posts. You are Jaysfan1, if you need me to prove it I will. I think the other members will agree with my proof.

I reread your previous posts as you said to do. But you are still wrong about me being jaysfan1 and YES , I would like for you to PROVE that.
I already said I was sorry for mis-reading NYC's post. I thought it was at ME. Now , I expect an appology after you do not prove it.

Joel -

My bad on the B-Day... mine is my B-Day. Maybe I just presumed (never assume!) that other's filled out their profiles too... didn't know it had a default B-Day.

Anyway, still thinking one in the same - and wondering how 'Doug' thinks NYC's post was directed at him when NYC quoted Jays1Fan post - NOT TransAm's post???

As I said before, for a newbie - seems pretty defensive of a boardie he claims NOT to know - and the other thing that throws up a red flag for me is this:

HOW does he know that Jay1Fan didn't break any forum rules or not if he's new unless he is either:

A) one in the same with Jays1Fan
B) friends with Jays1Fan who built a new account on different IP

Just way too many things don't fit for an old Loss prevention / Risk Management guy like myself...

Again, my .02

I agree 100% but would rather not make any accusations, yet.

Re: Collector to Collector Classifieds

My Mistake !!!!
Sorry , I just re-read it and saw the Jaysfan in my quotes and thought you were talking to ME since I was the next post.
And to all the other guys here , no I am not Jaysfan.

my 2 cents.

Re: Collector to Collector Classifieds

Transam,

Please re-read before getting all worked up. I never said anything to you. In my post I quoted Jays1fan. My comment was directed towards him, as he was the one who cursed me out. I'm sorry that you misunderstood. Nowhere did I say anything to you.

Welcome to the forum btw.

Re: Collector to Collector Classifieds

Is Scott ( The guy you are referring to ) also Jays1fan ?
I just noticed Jays1fan is Banned.
I know I am new here and all , but if he didnt break any rules , why the ban? I just got attacked from some guy who doesnt even know me.
I hate to see whats next.

Transam,

Re: Collector to Collector Classifieds

I'm sorry, but am I the ONLY one who noticed that the 'new' member (who joined TODAY by the way) took offense to what NYC said in reference to JaysFan post??? But took the defensive stance like NYC's comment was pointed at HIM (TransAm that is).



And then he asks this 'rhetorical' question:



I don't think TA is necessarily new... maybe just recycled...

Jays Fan - BDay on profile Jan 1, 1980 (30 yo) - BANNED today
TA = BDay on profile Jan 1, 1980 (30 yo) - NEW today

Hmmmm.... and for being NEW, he sure is defensive about a member he apparently doesn't know (see 'rhetorical' question quote above)...

Semms kind of odd to me... maybe mods should check some IP addresses...

Just my .02
