Sorry brother - you are out of luck here. I am going to keep posting. In the future, if you have an issue with what I'm doing, a PM would be much more appreciated (flies/honey/vinegar and all that). My suggestion would be that if you have an issue with my frequency of posting, then to simply not click on my threads ... problem solved!
After looking at the off-topic board here, I see that I do have several links on the front page here, so apparently this category doesn't move as quickly as the others, so it does look like I post a LOT more here than compared to other places I post.
If the admins have an issue with this, then again, to any admins out there: if the Net54 audience doesn't find my content valuable, please feel free to PM me and I will gladly cut back/stop posting altogether. I post because I get the feeling folks enjoy reading what I write, and I enjoy hearing about their positive feedback.

Maybe the price cut will spur an offer.
Also got a Frank Thomas 1994 Donruss Gold Leaf Stars (/10000 for $6) and a 1964 Curtis Flood (one of the original hoarded cards) for $3.

Holy cow! I can't believe you actually pulled something like that. It still blows my mind that Vizquel/Galarraga are such huge deals. If it ends up going for $2k, that would almost be like pulling a higher grade Nolan Ryan rookie. My, what a marvel the times we live in are.
I recall hearing about the Flood being hoarded. Do you have any idea what you can expect to get out of it? As a child, I always had this "what if?" scenario if someone hoarded all 87 Topps Bo Jackson rookies, and burned most/all of them ... what would happen to the market for them. Little did I know that you could probably collect every single one you came across in your entire life, and there would still be 3.5 million of them out there left LOL!
