I would advise against sending her in for grading. Women are better raw. Where's Mr. Wakefield to back me up?!

Are you setting me up for an instance when I might prefer 'slabbing'?


IF it will do any good, Jake let her know I love her too. I have for a day, now. 2 year anniversary will be 10-6-10. I'll be waiting!! Let me know if she needs my mailing address.

This is a funny thread. I met my future wife when I was 29; a few months later she threw me a surprise 30th birthday party (in which I was truly surprised -- and almost didn't show up as I was on trial at the time). Amongst the presents she gave me was an autographed Jim Brown helmet which is still one of my favorite pieces. A few months later we were engaged.

No need to elaborate.

My future Mrs. and I first met in the back of a police squad car many years ago. But in our rowdy youth, we went out with a group of mutual friends who chose the wrong house inwhich to toilet paper the trees (after an emotional, hard-fought high school football game). Unbeknown to us, that same house was visited the night before by other rowdy youths with a similar idea. Needless to say, our timing was less than ideal. On the bright side, I couldn't have picked a better partner in crime (or partner for life). If only O.J. could have been so lucky.

Congrats on the Mantle card; seems like a great girl!!

Back in September 2003, I was on my second date with my future wife at a Red Sox game. (She said she liked baseball on our first date, but I didn't know to what extent at this point.) When Bill Mueller came up to bat, she started cheering loudly for him.

Pam: C'mon Bill, you're my favorite player, get a hit!
Naive me: Why do you like him so much, do you think he's hot?
Pam: No, because he's hitting .328 right now with 42 doubles this year, that's why.

I'm surprised I didn't drop to a knee on the spot....

There's no distinction in criminal cases...so he was innocent and not guilty!

This card was sold in the August Mile High auction.

If anyone can't find it, email me and I'll send you the link, but I don't want to post it here, because it might be interfering with a genuine B/S/T transaction.


Edited to add - The auction was actually the September/October Mile High. Their header on the page says "August" but it was the one ended 10/1.

Yes, I am the one who won this card off of Mile High Card Company on October 1st. My user name for Mile High is mickeymantle24. I believe thi guy is lying to all of you and has now been caught. I am actually the owner of this card! Thanks Mike

Maybe Jake can say something about the matter, so we get to the bottom.

I sent him an email last night, before I posted on the other board, and he hasn't responded.

Do you own it or not. Is the guy trying to sell a item that aint his?

[Archive]

Posted By: Jake Dahl

im not sellin nothin i own a card similer same auto same grade card is off center/trimmed at bottom and right, i needed a scan to show off thats why i took it off the photobucket the way i did

[Archive]

Posted By: Brian

So the scan you posted to start this thread is not a scan of the card you own?

[Archive]

Posted By: Jake Dahl

its a similar card to the one i own

Posted By: Brian

Michael,

Good luck with the sale of your card.

You cant make this stuff up.

im not

Posted By: howard

Jake, you ought to go on the b/s/t to clear things up. At least one person interested in buying the card posted that he still wants more proof that it actually belongs to Mike.

but isn't the psa # different?

Posted By: leon

It's pretty easy to do but I think I am confused. Where's Peter Chao when you need him anyway?

[Archive]

Posted By: Jake Dahl

yes the psa number is different

[Archive]

Posted By: peter ullman

These 2 cards are definitely the same...definitely some monkey business going on here!

Posted By: Mark

Jake - what's the PSA/DNA and PSA number of the one you own?

[Archive]

Posted By: DJ

How about another scan of the card...maybe the true owner holding it up to today's newspaper. j/k

Someone is def. lying here.

Who? If it's this thread owner...why?

Ok
This is what i think he is trying to say. His girlfriend bought him a mickey mantle signed baseball card. He must not of had a camera to take a photo so he took the photo from Mile High Auction because it looks alot like his card. I believe this is what has happened but im not 100% sure.

[Archive]

Posted By: howard

Just read the thread guys. Jake at this point is definitely not claiming he owns the pictured card. Whether he owns a similar card or not is of no real consequence other than to satisfy our own curiousity.

"then she tells me to close my eyes and when she tells me to open them i see this golitah card, scan below"

IMO, Jake is FOS. Busted.

And this thread doesn't belong on this forum to begin with. fooey

Hey Jake, I accept your apaulogy, Just next time please if you do not have a scan of your card, please do not use another scan of it. I had people that were questioning if I had this card just because you used the scan of the card I am trying to sell.
