Very entertaining thread.
I think zone's enthusiasm is very interesting - enough so that I've largely ignored his earlier off-color comments. I'm sure others have not and that has influenced their responses to his zealous posting, his minor insults of other forum members' cards and his unhidden pride in all aspects of himself. I wouldn't call such responses to zone the result of "low self-esteem". Lots of thread police lately.

I did not even know it was his Mantle card any 52 Topps Mantle owner should be proud of his card....I simply said I prefer the look of the PSA 4 I purchased but I am 100% sure that there is someone here with a 3,4,5,6,7,8 or a 9 and maybe even one of the 3 known 10's that looks better than mine and I am OK with that...maybe they even paid less than I did...but that is fine with me. No grudges here the guy should be happy with his Mantle as I am happy with mine.

I am truly happy with my purchases and that will not change no matter what. I am going to continue enjoying this hobby that is for sure!!! Thanks for ALL the positive comments and even the negative ones at least we are talking about cards are we not!!! You guys are ABSOLUTELY right our favorite card does NOT have to be our most expensive one.....that is very very true!!! Personally I prefer the Old Judge (MUCH more history than modern cards) cards and the T206 cards over post war cards....any day of the week!!! I always wanted a 1914 Baltimore news Babe Ruth or 52 Topps Mantle ''rookie'' since I was much younger BUT I can't afford the Ruth so I purchased the Mantle it is as simple as that. Sold some coins I owned and transferred the funds towards cards. By the way I grew up poor (with no parents...not like lots of people) like lots of people BUT worked my ass off for what I have got in life and I am proud of that....hence not a SHOW OFF...but simply proud of my accomplishments in life. I worked as a janitor for many many (at 8,50$ per hour) years but put myself threw school and pushed very hard to get a career afterwards and still work hard every day!!! So for those who think we all get the silver spoon treatment when we have some money that is NOT the case some of us worked our buts off every single day like most of you do.

Thanks!!! I had about 3-4 cards I truly wanted and have purchased them all so far except the Bill O'Hara T206 error (a nice PSA 2 would be just fine with me) card after this card I will be going much slower to find some other cards I may want to buy and yes at the BEST PRICE I can find...just could not hold myself back for those 3-4 cards (some of witch I only heard about a few weeks ago like the E90-1 Caramel Mike Mitchell I think that is what makes me look kind of nuts is going after a card I did not know anything about except that it is rare).

I quite drinking on April 26th 2010 (3 years next week...I use to party a LOT from the ages of 14 to 22 and then from 27 to 30) but you can buy me a soft drink with ice (Ice-T or a diet coke) and I will be just as happy with that. ![]() I will look into the national show for sure just have to get a new passport done.

I just like his 52 Mantle...I havent the funds to buy one..but i may be on a spending spree at REA.....I may reach the moon.
All i can say, if i had his $$$....i being going after some rare cards myself. I just reccomend...do research and price comparisons...and do as much of it as possible.

Thanks...by the way I am in no way a millionaire yes I have some funds but not like the big whales like you guys call them. I will never be a millionaire either and that is simply a fact of life. Last edited by Zone91; 04-18-2013 at 10:11 AM. |
