The guy came here for some advice. Why must you insult him?

Do you mean, Mr. Atkatz, the same way you insulted Shelly about dyslexia?

Or the same way you insulted me about my low-end Tom Tresh collection?

For the millionth f*#king time, Chris. It's Dr. Atkatz, to you.

Nah, not the same way at all. The three of us--you, me, Shelly--know (and despise) one another. We'll be insulting one another--as far as I can see--until one of us dies.

Sportscollector is completely unknown to Shelly. The insult was totally uncalled for. (And, BTW, it's not the first time he's insulted some newbie whose only "crime" was not being as educated as Shelly seems to think he himself is.)

[David Atkatz]

Chris, does anyone have a high-end Tom Tresh collection?

To the OP:

You may want to start another thread, or perhaps just deal with a few people in this thread through private messages. As you can see, you've got three members on here whose juvenile squabbling will drag this into a cesspool. It's happened many times before.

What's wrong with Tom Tresh? I have 3 signed magazines and a signed topps card of him that I love to look at.

[Runscott]

My first baseball card purchase had a Tom Tresh in it - 1965 cello rack pack. As far as I was concerned, everyone in that pack was a star.

Not sure if it was mentioned already, but those 'leaf executive' slabbed cards, to my knowledge, are NOT from Boxes/Pack pulls. If you have a JSA or PSA certified item, you can sent it to Leaf for like $40 and they make it into a card and slab it. If your player is the first, it's a 1/1 masterpiece.

They take advantage of the 1/1 craze, along with creating the illusion that these are pack pulled, which they are not. Pack pulled items seem to go for way more, like Historic Autographs or UD Leg Cuts.

When I was in the hunt for a Ruth auto, I was watching one particular auto that sold for $2700 w/ TPA. A month later, it was a leaf masterpiece and at auction went for $4300ish.

why would grading increase the value? we all have eyes and can see the boldness of the autos. grading of the autos is as big of a scam as the custom made 1/1 cards. dont trade one scam for another.

That quote above was about four hours ago. I said a sucker is born every minute. I should have said a scam is born every minute.

If anyone wants to take the time he gave a plus one to exactly what Travis wrote plus agreeing that spending money to get an autograph graded is stupid as well. I guess he forgot how you can hurt a newbie's feelings, his only "crime" was saying something he thought to be true.
Just so you know I dont hate or even dislike you. I just feel sorry for you. Why someone has to go out of there way to hurt someone for just for there own pleasure is a very sick man. By the way. How did you treat Scott F when I said I it is nice haveing someone looking from the outside in. You have no idea what his back ground is yet you thought he had no idea what he was talking about.
I did promise I would not do this . But four hours later the PhD is now Mr Hyde.
I found out from my other friend Richard that I no longer have to see his comments. So my dear Jekyll. dyyn ʼa gʼanẕ tʼákʻs lʼák
