I've bought a fair amount of stuff from Dan and have never had a problem. The only time we ever got even remotely sideways was when he took something I said differently from how I meant it, probably because I didn't say it very well. That was quickly ironed out. IMO, he's as straight up as they come.
I would never have any hesitation either buying from Dan or asking him a question. I don't think I would ever get less than a completely honest answer. Just my personal experience for what its worth. Best to all, Kenny Cole |

There are certain people I would say that to on a daily basis if I had the opportunity.

Kenny- defending a guy who is always bitching about trimmed cards??? The card he has on ebay is thinner than don knotts. And talking to people like they are red-headed step kids? Glad you have a tolerance for such......

Well, lets just say my experience with Dan is different than yours. And then, I'll add that I suspect Dan's done more in terms of working to make the hobby clean and safe, for years, than you have. Then add that I imagine he has graded about 1000X more cards in his life than you have, and I don't really have too many problems "defending" him, although he really doesn't need anyone to defend him. But, that's just my opinion. You are obviously entitled to feel differently. Have a nice evening.

Guess it slipped by SGC too. Two shitty graders missed it, but you didn't. Grats for catching it. Keep up the good work.

Between my own careful look at it and SGC I'm 100% certain that it's not trimmed. And it is narrow, about as wide as a typical American Beauty. To call the card listed on Ebay trimmed with only a passable scan to go by is ridiculous. Steve B |

Not quite all the facts but neat thread...and nice try.
“Dan needs to be more politically correct imo. To tell someone to f***off and call them a pussy is ridiculous. Funny how he hasn't chimmed in yet.....”
Kevin Dan did chime in. He told you that you were a waste of his time and a nobody to him. Then he told you to pound sand. You were the one who felt the need to take it off email leave out some facts and post it here. Kevin I guess what you're trying to say is that Dan needs to be more politically correct than you and your comments to him in your email and I quote "And by the way, Stevie Wonder could see that the card is trimmed. My God man, look at the gap between the holder guards and the edge of the card." Simple you got snarky and then got spanked. Then you come here to cry because he was a little hard on the Beaver and throw Dan under the bus. Gee what a surprise you fail to mention your snarky comments to Dan when you fired up this thread.  Kevin as an FYI not everyone will take the politically correct position of… “Dear Mr. Customer I respect your input regarding the card but it looks ok to me and SGC, but thanks for your input and concern kind sir.” Some people upon hearing Stevie Wonder comments about their cards go straight to F**k Off. In terms of the card in question I too have some narrow T206’s that are fine. Also not every SGC holder is exact in terms of inserts I have some that have space and some that are super snug. Dan is a gruff no nonsense SOB, and that’s what I like about him. Not to mention he has a collection/knowledge that makes me feel like a started collecting from the 7-11 down the street last week. In terms of his prices no crazier than any other BIN on eBay or web museum. He like anybody else slaps them high because he knows he’s going to get low balled case in point right here above. "Granted it was a lowball offer...." Translation I offered a price I knew the seller would find insulting and was shocked that he wasn’t more gracious to me for trying to take advantage of him. You just can’t win with some folks huh? Cheers, John Last edited by wonkaticket; 10-27-2012 at 01:47 AM. |

back in the 90's Mckee told me I was selling a baseball bats Lajoie instead of an Orange Borders on ebay. I thought he's on mt rushmore of card collectors with Olbermann, Charlie Sheen, and that guy from legends of Curley's Gold.

The holder doesn't help the look of the card it makes it look smaller than it actually is. Kind of like an optical illusion. And if the biggest complaint we have in life is arguing over a card we don't have then I'd say we're all doing pretty good with our lives.
I have bought from Darby's and have had no complaints. I don't really care if he called me a b1tch or an a$$ or a drug dealing mule.. as long as he gives me my damn cards I'll be happy.

Not confused at all....

He has a card I want but it’s listed too rich for my blood. I can’t negotiate it down because what I’m willing to pay is still far from market value to most and will be taken as a low ball offer. So since I’m bitter at the fact that I can’t score this card on the cheap. The guy selling it is a taking advantage of others…because in my world I set all prices for cards within our hobby. Too expensive don’t buy it. I know Dan is high I have a SGC 50 common T206 I bought from him a few years ago…about 12 more payments and it will be mine. This board is a mess Jeff only cares about murders and criminals, Dan is ripping folks off and is a vulgar drunk, Leon was Pablo Escobar, I’m mean to the elderly for no reason and Sloate hates T206’s and the hobby. Why does anyone come here anymore?

This wasn't even the card I wanted, I was just using this as an example. But I can't imagine fair market value for a Hindu backed Griffith(that would grade at a 1 maybe 2) is close to 1800. I could be wrong, but I doubt it. |
