When I walked in there a couple years ago, I couldn't stand to be in there for more than a few minutes because it smelled like throw up. This guy is a joke.

Yeah, I love how he's trying a different tactic in hopes of duping someone into buying his junk. I also love how he uses the word "mint" to describe his games. I guess mint means something else to him than it does to everyone else.

I have to admit that I was really hoping that this stuff would be auctioned off so I wouldn't have to see his ads any more on CL. I guess that's not going to happen.

I was in there last month. The place is really disgusting and the pins are really beat!

Since when is Adams Family "rare".

Sick of this GUY! And this GUY:

4K MNF?

Hate to see if he gets an Aspen? I'm sure it's 1k all day!

Since they only made 20k+ of them!

Didn't you know that!

Couldn't agree more. Contacted this joker a year ago about a pin as I have a decent collection of comics and was looking to unload some as part of a trade. Let's just say it was a complete waste of time. Not surprising to see the same list of pins a year later.

Know what else is crazy about this guy? He's just downright mean when you talk to him. You'd think with the crazy high prices he wants he'd try to make a sale by being nice, but he's a real jerk to talk to. On the phone he'll hang up on you if you "ask too many questions" (2), he'll get testy if you ask him any questions (1). In person he's no better. "Yes, I know it's out of order. Yes, I know it's been out of order for over a year. That's my price, if you don't want to pay it, you're wasting my time, I have other things to do". His wife is a better/nicer, but she immediately defers to him on any questions, so no real help there.
