Since this is the discussion thread, why don't we get some feedback about what everyone would like to see posted? (Teams, HOFers, Players, Chrome RCs etc...)

Might help facilitate the thread...

Btw Krom, I thought the first nine card lot that you posted would have been right up many collector alleys on here. Surprised no one claimed that one...

I'd love to see anything Cubs or Bears posted up.

The one Cub card that was posted I claimed but I never received. I'm just patiently waiting for another one to go up

I'd love to see some redsox stuff or BC Autos. with the number of prospectors on the boards, there have got to be a ton of them floating around! I'm also a fan/collector of refractors, so love to see those!
[MENTION=4703]Krom[/MENTION] - I would love them! They will go right into the stashes of refractors I keep. When I get enough to think crazy, I start thinking of making sets!

The lot I took was by no means intended for profit. Not the point of this tread. Already had 2 of the 3 RCs. I feel I posted nice cards in return but some people had their own opinions. I would by no means sell thise cards. Most people here are nice and mean well. Others are in it for greed. Sad!!! I'm a collector, not in this for profit. 30 years doing this and sold 9 things on Ebay. I have a nice lot I wanna put on again, assuming we can have more than one PIF going at the same time.

I was considering instituting a rule that would give the GIVER some power over who gets the card.


Example:
Say I put the AARON up for grabs.
Two people PM me wanting it.
One says they have a Joe Montana slabbed RC to post.
Other says they have McDonalds coupons to post.
I approve the Montana and the thread continues.

THOUGHTS?

I think that is a solid rule!

Sucks that it has to be this way but I think it's a good idea to keep the bargain bin cards from being on here

Nice rule but what if the choices are a McDonalds coupon or a Burger King coupon?

We've had a hard time getting people to claim cards, and we're all interested in keeping in moving quickly. This seems like it would inhibit those ideas.

I like this. I was actually thinking that the giver could also be able to make a couple specifics about who the card(s) could go to, which is exactly what I planned to do the next time I post something.

Some examples:
1) Only people with at least 1,500 posts or 1 year of forum membership
2) Agree only to replace the item with something of equal value and $x is the value I place on this item (should go without saying, but I'll say it - don't be a moron with this - check to make sure you are being reasonable both as the giver and the person agreeing to the terms!).
3) You have to show me what you are going to replace my item with before I agree to let you have it.

Something along these lines. It is your thread though so I didn't want to bring this up; however, you appear to have opened the door to this type of discussion.

Not sure whats better the coupon or a single card that sells for less than a happy meal.

Possible, but if the quality of the card rises, things will move quicker.
