==========The Morning Thread==========

I know I've asked before about shipping times from Canada, but it's going on a month now. It's a bit annoying.

Bruce I received a card today from Canada that I paid for on November 23rd. the seller never responded to my emails and received 3 negatives in the last month and hasn't posted any responses to the negatives. also the seller hasn't listed any item in a few weeks.

I am sure you have but have you checked with the seller for a ship date and have you checked their recent feedback for other members who haven't received their items?

Well on that note I'll gve it a little more time. This seller has well over 10k feedbacks, almost 3000 in the last 12 months and 26 negatives as well. There have been people mentioning slow shipping. I have no other choice than to wait really. Thanks for the reply.

unfortunately I think waiting is the only option right now. the Canadian Post is
very slow all the time and even more so with the holidays.

Dont forget about the snow, that is your real factor with Canada Post at this time.

Scott I have used Emergen-C before and it always works great for me.

 

[scotty21690]

Ha, sorry everyone who is waiting for me to keel over....Dave just claimed my whole collection. :mrgreen:



Any new Bay pickups recently?

got this beauty in the mail today. I bought it off FCB'er Anthony. he is unloading most of his Khalil Greene collection.

 

[Pinbreaker]

OK, just finally finished reading all the whatsabout that is going on..

Charlie, hope AD gets in this year..

I do too Kev...I think. :?

Here's what I told Scott earlier.

Charlie, how do you think Andre will fare on Wednesday?

I think he will finally get in this year, either by himself, or with Blylevin.

I do have to say that I am quite torn though as strange as that seems,
because if he does get in, my collection will be on the back burner for most
of this year, I'm guessing. I expect to see a big price jump from all of the HOF
collectors for at least a few months, which is unfortunate because he is in at
least 2 products releasing this month. The good thing is, he very well could end
up in more products than usual this year.

Idk, I may actually sell some of my doubles if prices go higher than expected. :?

Charlie, you see this little nugget (outside the MT of course ::facepalm:: )............

The Hawk was one of the most overrated players of all time. Couldn't get on base, played on horrible teams, and honestly if it wasn't for that one fluke MVP season with the cubs he wouldn't get 50 percent of the vote. Blyleven shouldn't make it in either, never lead the league in anything.

Yup. :lol: Here is my response in that thread...

You know, I could spend a lot of time typing out all his stats that show you he is top 50 all time in most offensive categories, tell you how the bolded actually helps his case, tell you he was ROY & MVP(the only one ever on a last place team, btw), tell you he won 8 gold gloves, had 8 all-star games, and 4 silver sluggers when those things actually meant something. I could also tell you that he had a cannon for an arm, is one of only 3 players in the history of baseball to hit 400+ HRs and steal 300+ bases in their career(one other is Willy Mays, and the 3rd is a cheater). I could also tell you that he is better statistically than most of the right fielders currently enshrined in Cooperstown.

I could do all that, but it's much easier to just tell you that you're wrong.

Btw - I will seriously **** my britches if Alomar gets in on the 1st ballot, after the deserving guys who had to wait 5-8 years to get in.

I'm holding you to it and will come down and ustream it.
