    Re: O/T: With all the craziness happening around UPPERDECK, should I be worried about the game used I purchase

    I asked a couple of days ago for an email from Vic about what HR balls he has and didn't even get that.

    So a guy that registers his name on the Forum as Vic Fanatic which obviously is a ficticious name should be banned until he proves he is real.

    I think Vic is enjoying being the center of attention and I join in with others who are growing tired of this type of "member".[/quote]


    Who want to be the center of the attention?


    Where did I say I want attention?


    As for your request of the HR Balls, scroll up buddy and read my response about your inquiries.


    I cant even pay attention to my collection and now I need you to help me to be the center of my attention? Wow, really?


    As for photoshop, why would I have to go to that extreme? Unless I want to fool somebody otherwise.


    Oh, just in case, my jerseys are not worth in the $10K as some one mentioned on here. You can still get them for $3500 (Marino), $4500 (kobe), $4500 (Lebron) ... search eB.. you will find some and you can make offer on those too.


    As for being a Fanatic, I am more like a lunatic who willing to spend whatever if my bills allow. So everyone has different threshold. Mine is anything and everything sports related.



    Attached were my playoff game tickets this past year at the stadium - those legends seats were mostly empty during the year, but when playoff rolls around - everyone want to be there. Could have trade those tickets for some really good game used stuff - but hey, you only live once.


    "notice the row?"


    Got two game used balls from that game - got both signed by Mariano and Alex (which I paid $175 and $250 respectively)


    Again, worth every penny!

      I try to not to reply and I DIDNT.


      Your point is well taken ... maybe the rest should do the same, right?

        If a real Lebron or Kobe was available on Ebay for this prices you quoted 1/2 this forum would trample each other to buy them. MEIGray is currently auctioning one of each worn in one game (this Christmas) and the current bids for both are over seven grand with 10 days to go in the auction. A Marino from 1997 obtained directly from Mounted Memories Dan's longtime exclusive agent (he also has a stake in the company) was a late addition to the Hunt superbowl auction and closed at 5,500 before the 15% buyer's fee.

          So fake or not real stuff on eB..? Now that is shocking to hear!


          My jerseys are worth about 75% what I had paid for them - got a dealer come by and make me an offer I CAN REFUSE.

          May be I am stubborn, but I choose to keep my loss then sell them to minimize the loss.


          So again - these are nice to look at, it's more like a reminder how reckless one can be and then.... it's another day!

            People on blogs and random sites scrap my photos from my website all the time. But I consider watermarks to be clutter. Stealing an image is not the same as stealing the actual item. This is why paypal is awesome. If you do not receive an item or the item is not as described, you get your money back.
            You know you can find a code that won't allow people to steal your pictures. When they right click on the mouse the pop-up can just say what you want.

              Stil doesn't work. You can take a screenshot of the image.

                  Or you can search the source code and look for the HTML tagging SRC IMG= and just cut and paste that... not that hard...

                  And just wondering? WHO is this VIC FANATIC everyone keeps talking about? By the way Yankee.Stub responds, it sounds like it's him? Are they one in the same?

                      Vic Fanatic is yankees.stub; they are one and the same. While it's obvious that yankees.stub has contrived an identity, he gave the enigmatic nom de guerre for the forum directory. In case you don't know, you can look up everyone's real name in the Hobby Directory.

                      While I don't have evidence to back this up, it is my belief that someone is playing a prank on the GUU community. I won't mention names, but I find it interesting that Vic's join date is very close to the ban date of the last two banned members. It looks like someone is jerking around the GUU.

                      It's pathetic that some have nothing better to do than to create a fake persona. There is so much to be involved in in this world - politics, sports, social justice, etc. - that I find it crazy that someone would take the time to create an alias and post over 100 posts under a fake name.

                        why would one have a fake name to do a forum?

                        Have any of my post degrade or attack anyone? or just it is what it is? GAME USE stuff?

                        Do I try to sell anything?

                        so again, boy, you guys have alot of time on your hands!


                        this is worst than chat room antics...LMAO... too funny!

                          It is not even about that.

                          I dont waste time with photoshop stuff ... that doesnt do anything for me unless I plan to insure my collectibles.


                          Hey, i just post my crazy playoff tickets .. if some want to steal that, go right ahead.


                          No big deal!


                          So the bottom of these antics are people want to see and I dont have time to indulge and search for stuff to prove a point.


                          The only point I am proving so far with the code of forum - I dont disrespect anyone on their stuff ... I might have fun with LastingMilledge here and there ... Legaleagle for his wits ... and that is all fun!


                          So again, I still dont know what the deal is... but what ever it is.... it is childish.... LMFAO...



                          serious..... check all my posts and threads I replied to... beside some O/T here and there ... they are all related to GUU....
