Default kudos once again to Barry Sloate..

Posted By: ockday

After having just completed another batch of Ebay consignments with Barry..I have to say that there is probably no one better to deal in this hobby. Honesty, integrity, speedy payments and even pick up service if you're in the neighborhood...what more would you want when selling.The same goes for when I've consigned to his regular auctions.
I'm sure most of you know this already but for those that don't, Barry Sloate is incredible to deal with.
Thanks Barry!
Alan

Plus I offer a free pair of oven mitts to each new consignor!

Thanks Alan, but you didn't have to do that.

Wow, those would really be great in conjunction with my hand-modeling career!

"who is barry sloate?"


Joe D,

A board troublemaker of sorts. Last week he was invloved in a dispute with Marshall. Just yesterday, he was advocating a "bash PSA" thread! I think he's one of those hated "Liberals", too! He might even be French!

Billy Mays and Shamwow guy are both rumored to do strange things with cards. There's no way that just using a Shamwow can improve the centering of cards.

Is Art VanDelay Auctions a wholly-owned subsidiary of VanDelay Industries?
or do they fall under the Collectors Universe umbrella?

Barry is an alright guy. Most folks don't know this but he was originally the sixth and founding member of NSYNC. The band had a falling out with him in the late 90's because they felt they didn't need an accordion player...their loss.

Did I ever tell you about the time Barry and I went horseback riding, but there weren't any horses around? Anyway, Barry throws a saddle on my back and rides me around Nebraska for three days. Well, wouldn't ya know it, my stamina increased with each day, and I develop tremendous leg muscles. So anyway, Barry decides to enter me into the Breeders Cup under the name Turkish Trophy. And I'm running in second place, and I'm running, and I break my ankle. So anyway, they're about to shoot me. Then someone from the crowd yells out, God bless him, Don't shoot him, he's a human.

I'm sure she deserved it. That woman was a one person crime wave! If we had forced her to stay home in Cabot Cove, the murder rate would have dropped across the rest of the country.

Steve,

I think the tears curing gout is a miracle.

Dan,

Scissor kicking Angela Lansbury and riding you around Nebraska aren't really miracles.


Can someone please find another miracle so that we can have the Catholic church consider him for Canonization? Of course, that would be up to Barry if he'd want this honor. But Barry, think about it, you'd probably be the only guy in your Synagogue that can make that claim! How cool would that be? happy.gif Wait a minute, on second thought maybe that wouldn't be so good because I think there was something about having an exemplary life and DEATH to be considered for Canonization... ok, we'll find the miracle but postpone the Canonization until a much later time...

He starts with Corvalay, and as he plays with it it morphs into Vandelay.

So anyway, Barry would put on a white tie and tails and walk his cobra through the park on a leash. He named the cobra Beverly, and he taught it how to fetch and dial a phone. But then one day it bit the maid. So with tears in his eyes, Barry had to shoot the maid.

He then tied an onion to his belt, which was the style at the time. He had a nickel in his pocket. In those days, nickels had pictures of bees on them. Give me five bees for a quarter, wed say.

For a board full of guys who do not like self promotion,horse racing and such this thread was right on the money. Keep up the good work. The thing i liked the best in this thread is that Barry responded first LMAO it was almost like taking a bow before the audience even clapped.

Smiton's Bay is in the 5th tonight but she is so lazy that i may have to drag her out of the barn but she may grab a small piece, watch out next time however when she is dropped into 6 furlongs where she belongs because she will be boxcars which is just the way you like it.

Dan- I've been out of the SNL loop for the past few years, so if you could be so kind as to fill me in, it would be appreciated.

Edited to add, I know that routine. I remember he was very drunk and always spoke about that Brasky character. Got it.

I always thought Alec Baldwin would have made a great regular addition to the SNL cast. I think he's always been my favorite guest host followed by John Goodman and Steve Martin.

Dan- if memory serves, Baldwin, Martin, and Goodman have hosted the show more times than anyone else. I think each one has done it at least 15 times. Martin hosted recently, and I think he is in first place.

Besides the obvious cowbell routine, I loved the suave character he played who was always serving champagne and talking to some invisible guest.
