Posted By: <b>andy becker</b><p>most knowledgeable and most helpful are two different thing. john has a point. the most helpful people are on this board....leon really stands out. others too. i have, many times, just emailed a person....who doesn't know me from beens. greg ecklund was my last victim <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> ....btw, thanks again greg for your help!<br />as for three names...lew, rob lifson, and bill mastro. <br /><br />best advice goes to bruce....<br /><br />"I would say the most useful thing I've learned is that when you get a chance to acquire a nice piece that you've never seen before, grab it because you may never see it again."<br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>john/z28jd</b><p>I'll second that advice by Bruce and back it up with an example. I passed on an old judge card(a specific pose) at the 2003 National and i havent found that card since and its bugged me to this day.The reason i passed was because i was leaving the show and had to spend all my money(like i always do,so stupid!) and i couldnt find another card to match up with that card(he was asking $240) to equal the $400 i had to spend so i bought a card for $400 exactly.Now the card i bought was one i wanted but ive also seen it for sale 5 times since then so it wasnt exactly tough in an old judge sense.<br /><br />Ive learned since then and now know cards that i wont pass on for the right price,but it was a tough way to learn.Now id pay 5x the original asking price if i could find that specific card<br /><br />Sorry to take it off subject but its a great bit of info to know
