Can we assume that you are the only person behind T206museum.com?

"What happen to the Lipe?
It was on eBay solely for showmanship ...."

"Why did I consign the Revelle to REA?
First of all, the Revelle was the only other one that left my possession after being graded by SGC. The reason I consigned it to REA was to make their 2009 auction more "completed" ...."

These are my two favorite lies. Patrick, you really display much altruism towards REA, I'm sure Rob was appreciative of your efforts to make his auction more "completed." And ebay is not a museum, it is a money-making venture, period.

I'd have to agree that you probably should shut your pie-hole at this point and consult a lawyer.

Not sure why he would need a lawyer. No charges were brought against him and he's supposedly made restitution. Personally I think this case needed some kind of charges brought. The damage that something like that brings to the hobby deserves harsher penalties than an apology and restitution. The next guy will think he can get away with it too.

Default to sum up

He made them just for fun.
He encapsulated them just to educate the grading services.
He put them out for sale just to show off.
He consigned one just for the benefit of the auction house.
He sold/traded one, but he made restitution.
And he has sincerely apologized.

I think HE is the victim here.

I don't really get the whole thing about making the cards "for fun". Nothing good can come from creating such things and obviously nothing did.

All very silly.

If we are to believe this guy's explanations are made in what he feels to be good faith, then he truly displays psychopathic traits.

--No remorse expressed until he was caught

--A convenient, scapegoat-like answer for everything

--Excuses so laughably ridiculous in their mock complexity that a person would have to be a psychopath to believe them.

Default What a nutcase

I think he should go to jail for that. I also think that it's a strong likelihood that he will never try to do anything like this again, but this guy not being held accountable will only encourage the next A-Hole. Anyway, you never answered the question about how you did this. What sort of equipment to you have? And for crying out loud, what kind of name is Scott Bob?! Idiot

Billy Bob and Joe Bob were already taken.

Dan, I'm assuming you wrote this tongue in cheek because obviously one doesn't need a lawyer only after charges are brought; by then the horse may be out of the proverbial barn. And making restitution doesn't make one immune from a criminal charge either especially if the only reason one made restitution is because one was caught. If that were the case then every time a bank is robbed and the thieves caught all they would have to do is return the money to avoid prosecution.

If this putz's story is true and only a few of his frauds hit the market then I'm not sure it makes any sense for criminal charges to be brought. However, considering he made one apology yesterday and continued his fraud on this forum, and then made another apology today replete with more lies in it, it's difficult to know what the truth is. At the very least he should be banished from Net 54.
