Long Time Lurker, Finally Joined
 

It feels weird to introduce myself as a new guy when I've been lurking here so long (I love the New Directory of Collectorisms by JollyElm, and I've enjoyed a lot of popcorn reading threads of scammers defending themselves poorly), but you've never heard from me, so here we are.

My name is Brian, many of you know my brother Scott (Aquarian Sports Cards). I work with him on tasks that don't involve interacting with customers (after years of managing pawn shops, not dealing with customers became my dream). My PC focus is "not very" but I'll probably spend most of my time in the football cards section, though I'll sometimes be in here, boxing, or memorabilia as well.

I look forward to actually joining the conversation sometimes.

Welcome aboard Brian, we've saved you a seat.

Hi Brian, welcome!

Hey Brian. Welcome.

Welcome to the forum. Is your user name from the famous Japanese Ronin?

Welcome Brian.

Yes it is.

Hi Brian, this is Brian. Your brother chose my entry from a contest he held on here for the name of his auction company. Coincidence? Or is it just some sort of Collector Connection?

Here is a football and boxing card (not my usual collecting fields) to welcome you aboard.

Welcome to the Net54, Brian!

And thanks for what you do for Collector Connection. I always enjoy their auctions.

Jump in, the water...I mean cardboard...is fine!!!!!

And let's hope you don't suffer this fate...:D

When someone starts a jovial, well thought out ‘new member introduction’ thread and ends up receiving scant few “Welcome aboard!” replies.

Great to meet you, Brian. A very hospitable group!

Welcome to Net54!

As pretty much a career lurker, I hang around here for the knowledge, insight, wit and sarcasm. I am but a mere piker in all these respects. Welcome aboard!

Welcome Brian.

Welcome, Brian. Popcorn threads can be entertaining. Good luck in the quest too. I don't collect football but here's a postcard.
