I PERSONALLY DON'T THINK AUTHENTICATORS ARE WORTH A DAMN, BUT YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN DECISIONS ON THAT ONE. No one can stop dumb people from being dumb...<br /><br />Why would anyone buy a PSA/DNA or James Spence "Authenticated" autograph of someone that can be found on an On Card Certified Autograph Insert by any reputable Card Company (especially pre-2010 back to 1991) FOR THE SAME PRICE??? (or for a little more or even LESS!). <br />PSA/DNA & Spence are businesses and these businesses hire employees for CHEAP wages and they train these people to "authenticate" your autographs". Do you want some GREENHORN getting paid $10 an hour (or less) authenticating your autographs? It makes no practical sense whatsoever. And in the rare case that an actual "expert" at PSA/DNA or Spence looks at your autograph, they look at it for a few seconds and make their determination from that & ONLY THAT. IF YOU THOUGHT OTHERWISE, YOU COULDN'T HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG!<br /><br />The ONLY people promoting PSA/DNA or Spence are MAKING MONEY off PSA/DNA or Spence (or are ignorant/dumb followers)!<br /><br />DO YOUR RESEARCH AND YOU'LL FIND THAT I'M RIGHT 99+% OF THE TIME. As much knowledge as I have in all areas of this hobby, I don't know everything & I don't pretend to. I am continually learning to this day. But I certainly will speak out on what I do know & it does piss me off when people speak non-sense from a knowledge base that doesn't exist.<br /><br />What has Beckett taught any of you in the last 10-years about ANY fraud that's occurred in this hobby?<br /><br />Nuff said... <br /><br />Anyone collecting "AUTHENTICATED" autographs by anyone is not logical and I think they are quite ignorant. It's been generally estimated that around 25% of "AUTHENTICATED" autographs are decent forgeries. On the flip side (and much of this research was conducted or reexamined by ME): 99.9% of On Card Certified Autograph Inserts are authentic.<br /><br />Let's see- 75% vs. 99.9%; IS THERE EVEN A QUESTION AS TO WHICH YOU SHOULD CHOOSE???<br /><br />James McCay<br /><br />Always here to help collectors.<br />I'm not like T.J. Schwartz who's:<br />ON HIS BACKSIDE! (I hope at<br />least some of you get that Tuff <br />Stuff joke).

I've had literally dozen...Right there with you. I've had literally dozens of different ID's (with my exact same addy, name & PayPal Account) since 2010 just so I could mainly buy cards cheap to donate to sick kids. However they've never let me sell which is the SICKEST thing since not one person has EVER complained about my selling on my cardcop05 eBay ID or any other. The only FEW exceptions were sellers I went after for breaking all kinds of major eBay rules who KNEW I was suspended and KNEW I couldn't leave any response feedback, and one newbie con-artist who tried to get a 1997 Barry Larkin Donruss Signature Autograph FOR FREE who I busted after they said they returned it with USPS Insurance which eBay proved was a lie. But eBay REFUSED to remove that feedback. <br /><br />As long as you use eBay for scrupulous reasons & within common-sense practices (especially not selling & overcharging S&H) - then do whatever you have to do. But know that eventually eBay will catch up to you and you can still sign-up, but you'll be put in my category: YOU WILL BE SUSPENDED (for NO REASON!) within 48-hours of signing up. So you can buy for 2-days. This is fine if you are looking for specific cards to complete sets. <br />eBay is nothing more than a computer run program at this point with practically NO HUMAN INVOLVEMENT which is why these loopholes exist.

Since Ebay tricked me, I now learned how to trick them as well.

But after reading this article, I know that it is highly beneficial for those who face the problem of obesity.

This is exactly the message I received:<br /><br />Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain.<br /><br />I don't know if thewy blocked everyone not on their contact lists or just me, but this is bullshit! <br /><br />This is the VERY FIRST time I've ever said anything like this about Topps: THEY DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT ANYONE IN THE HOBBY UNLESS THEY ARE DIRECTLY RECEIVING MONEY FROM THEM! <br /><br />I'm done with this hobby. I no longer see any hope for the future of this hobby either. I think autographs will hold some of their value- but don't be surprised if everything else crashes soon.

I showed a doctor's note about my illneses since idiots didn't believe I was terminally ill and cannot walk. I'll show that and more if requested to ANYONE who asks.<br /><br />Those who are very sick like myself with no help can tell horror stories about health"care" because of budget cuts to hospitals/doctors and the impending doom of "Obamacare" that hospitals have already made cuts for over two years ago.<br /><br />Excruciating pain patients get ignored in ER's these days & most have no idea this is going on including doctors who work in the SAME HOSPITAL! I haven't been able to walk or use my back muscles to stand straight AT ALL for over a week and my pain has been no lower than 8 out of 10. <br /><br />So my pain management doctor told me to go to his hospital (Beth Israel) and he will "direct admit" me. That never happenened- and I spent 18-hours in the stupid ER on a very uncomfortable stretcher (compared to my bed) with the pain increasing every hour. The only fed me once in 18-hours as well... <br />I have to adjust my 1 to 10 pain scale for the fourth time after this fiasco. They kept trying to give me Dilaudid (Hydromorphone 6mg IV- which would knock an average person on their ass for a full day) but because I have a thymoma tumor that is blocking all medications (unless I've been taking them every day for years) -Dilaudid does NOTHING to me. <br />They sent me home with a prescription for (96) Dilaudid 4mg. It states to take (4) 4mg pills (16mg) every four hours which doesn't do a damn thing! I found it ironic when I was arguing about this with the ER Nurse Manager when she said "a thymoma won't block Dilaudid going directly into the bloodstream." after she realized I knew as much about pain management as any doctor. So she was basically telling me to inject the pills into my vein when I get home- how else was I to interpret that??? <br />This is where healthcare has gone- TO HELL.<br /><br />And people wonder why I get so angry when people are being ingnorant jerks... <br /><br />James M. aka Cardcophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10553204510522291301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361732106125496809.post-55819816340016204552013-01-13T15:50:57.385-08:002013-01-13T15:50:57.385-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.James M. aka Cardcophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10553204510522291301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361732106125496809.post-52955463007722903782013-01-13T15:33:27.981-08:002013-01-13T15:33:27.981-08:00Since I don't spend hours each day posting on ...Since I don't spend hours each day posting on blogs or message boards like you, I have to make judgements based on what I've seen in the past. There's a HUGE difference between a wrong assumption and a lie- if you don't understand that then I'm wasting my time. <br /><br />In the past I spent some time on message boards and found it to be a waste of my time because most of you think you know it all, BUT DON'T EVER POST A SOLUTION TO ANY OF OUR HOBBY'S MANY PROBLEMS! That's almost all I do... Funny how you didn't complain about anything else I said about you which pretty much proves I was correct about you- doesn't it? <<>> & I use that term loosely.<br /><br /> Frequent posters to one board are almost always posting on other boards which is why I made the statement I did.<br /><br />People do care about other people and if you think the opposite then you are wasting our air <<>>!<br /><br />JamesJames M. aka Cardcophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10553204510522291301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361732106125496809.post-33746169946022297022013-01-13T07:41:16.124-08:002013-01-13T07:41:16.124-08:00Just for the record, since we're calling peopl...Just for the record, since we're calling people out as liars, I didn't bash you ALL OVER the internet. I corresponded with you on ONE platform. ONE website sir. amd that was it. I apologize if you can't comprehend that. Don't exaggerate things. No one feels bad for you. If they did, I might have received AT LEAST one email for my supposed bullying of you. I have received none, sir. <br /><br />Grow up and try to enjoy what's left of your life.
