Don West memories thread

[BBCgalaxee]

I mean, where do I start?

I used to watch the show every Saturday night, pure entertainment!

Although Don had many sidekicks, no one was better than Kenny goldin.

Rarely ever actually seen on the show, you always heard his screaming bellowing from his phone proclaiming how insane he must be to put that deal together.

The XXXX those two hawked over the years is amazing. Each time easily making the garbage seem like '52 Topps.

Although I think their autograph deals were "ok", I honestly can only think of a few card items which seemed like steals, and that's over a decade or so.

One con job they sold were what claimed to be 1982 Mark mcgwire cards from when he played in Alaska.

While the cards are legit, they were actually issued the late 80s, something Don never mentioned.

So what's your memories?

I watched it whenever I could. It was like crack to me.

I loved the Blue Chip special. God how I wanted one, even though we ridiculed them while watching them.

I liked how he would get so excited that he was actually trembling while holding up the "steals" in front of the camera.

Also, after he picked up something from the display table, he would replace it all crooked and weird.
