Thank you to Sean Bassik

[Gradedcardman]

I wanted to take a moment to thank Sean Bassik for helping me secure a new card for my collection. He is a man of his word and that is greatly appreciated.

Why the hell isn't Sean helping me?

Did you ever communicate to Sean that you were in need of help? He isn't a mind reader.

Yes, I send him emails every day and leave messages on his phone with my requests. I think he's avoiding me.

I tend to be sarcastic at times; Sean's a good guy and has actually been very helpful to me.

Any chance we can see the new addition? I am curious what spurred the thank you on the big board.

EDITED TO ADD: I completely understand if you would rather not post whatever it is, but I had to ask.

Adam is a one of those collectors WE NEED!! ADAM is truly a legend in this hobby.....my "Circus" would not be what it is if it wasn't for Adam

SOMEONE should be giving you a shout out ADAM.....THAT PERSON IS ME!

If the rumors I heard are true, it is this little beauty...

Purchased many 52's from him on eBay lately. Super fast shipping, fair prices and accurate grading.

Adam is prob one of the best guys on this board hands down!

this guy does not gloate, he is a silent soldier! truly the word integrity

[CW]

I would comment on the OP but I don't know him from Adam.

You are so weird!

surprised your not into the scraps??? freaks??? ghosts??? are you???

I picked up the T206 Clymer color variation he posted on the boards as show and tell. Great card and getting re-slabbed right now. If someone knows how to work the net better than me they can post a pic.

Agreed, Sean was a big help when I was looking to consign my fathers 52 set. He put his own interests aside and introduced me to a different dealer/auctioneer.

I also witnessed him pay significantly more for a walk in card from a kid due to it being under graded. Card got a bump and a collector witnessing the transaction was so impressed with how Sean handled the purchase he lined up a sale for the card.

Thank you again Sean.

I've made some of my bigger purchases from Sean and I couldn't be happier with how they were handled. That is a really special card, congrats Adam!

Sean (hi Sean) is a good guy. He stumbled out of the gate a bit but understands his mistakes and learns from them. I have never had any issue with Sean and think he's good for the hobby. We just need him to be a collector too!!

I actually do collect wrong back sets now. I am working on a 53 Topps and about 15% of the way in.

Thank you everyone for the kind words. I really appreciate them and have made a huge effort over the past few months (years) to improve my attitude and let my business do the talking.

We never really own any of these great collectibles, we're simply the keepers and care givers until the time comes to let another care for the pieces. Some people care for the pieces for 50 years, some people care for the pieces for 50 minutes.

Kind Regards,

Sean Bassik

Congrats Sean on winning the chocolate eating contest!

I've only met Sean once, but I have sold him several lots of cards in the last year. Frankly he has used more words in this post than in all of our transactions combined. Usually its "price?" "scan?" or "I'll take it." In spite of his brevity I trust him. He is a man of his word. I look forward to doing more business with him in the future.

Best regards,

Joe

Sean,

Just curous on a wrong back set, how do you base what you need? Do you try for the numbers in order on the back of the card or do you sort them by the number they "should" have on the back? I've always wondered about that.

Thanks and take care,

Mike
