Great post, RJ ... hilarious and true. 
Reminds me of a convenience store hold-up. The criminal after taking the register’s cash demanded some cigarettes before he left. The clerk said that it was state law for him to check ID first, and the criminal complied and gave him a drivers license.  Needless to say, the criminal was arrested at home within the hour. LOL

 Back on topic, never dealt with this trader but very happy to see that my fellow board people are on the ball and Floydtown is on patrol. Thanks to DiMarco for outing a potential problematic trader. Good job!

I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

RE: BEWARE TRADERS
Just a bump to let others know and remind them of this guy. He posted what is more than likely a fake Nolan Ryan RC for sale on a reddit forum. Potential buyer researched and found this guy with it listed on FB Marketplace. The "seller" on the reddit group was female, or at least using a female name, but provided the same card pic as in the guy's marketplace ad and they apparently both have the same address or something like that. Claimed they needed money badly for their kid's Christmas or something and was looking to sell for only $300.

Story is kind of convoluted but I came into it a little late. Someone posted a link to this thread on reddit talking about how the guy got blown up on here. So, he's apparently still out there scamming away. Just a heads up in case he ventures back here.
