And I hope you had enough coquitos for all them guys. Recycling guys picked up my buckets today. They dumped and I watched from the window as they did a double take seeing an entire container of nothing but canned coconut tumbling out. You realize this will get added to string board right? |

What argument? What rumors did I absolve you of again? If you are hearing a different story, then SOMEONE is absolutely lying and I will try to dig up the old CGC post that I posted 8 years ago in Comics General to prove it, because if he'd had a problem with it then, THAT would have been the perfect time for them to 'out' me.  Not for at least six months you won't. |

Also, we may be thinking of different cabals as there have been so many. I was thinking of the Central Florida Posse cabal....is that the one you were thinking of? Yep. They openly admitted to it more than once. And I was friends with some of them before the cabal AND after the cabal, and they admitted to it as well. It wasn't like they were a criminal organization or anything, but they absolutely went out of their way to try to make my life miserable and admitted it. Back then, I cared. IDGAF today. Or maybe you are as insufferable as perceived. People who refuse to concede will always be insufferable. So be it. I'd rather suffer for the right thing than be guilty of the wrong thing. I never compromise my beliefs. |

Screwball thinks he's a founding father or something.

I didn't know the grade I was going to get any better than anyone else. I was actually pretty surprised at some of the grades as I had expected lower. We already know CGC is inconsistent some times, Is that my fault or CGCs? One of the books got a much lower grade than the rest. Should I have asked for a refund on that book? |

For someone who doesnt care what people think he sure seems to care what people think-he will argue endlessly with people that think things about him  |

Screwball thinks he's a founding father or something. The funny thing is, if he's just been like the guy who got over on the dealer for a .25 book that was worth over $1000 it would blow away....that guy just kept his mouth shut after that and let things cool down. It's amazing to me how these things keep happening to Vintage, for no other reason than people have it out for him. Normally when I dislike someone there is a reason, not just "because". |

Well it is for no reason and has nothing to do with his actions or words-refer to string board for more explanation. |

Right, so you hade zero idea what the books might have graded at and you didn't think for a second that he might be undervaluing those books by a LONG shot. Somehow you've made yourself the victim yet again. Amazing. |

And for everyone here who wasn't around back then, the whole Central Florida Posse cabal thing was a joke in the sense that they knew he was paranoid about NOTHING and played into it.
Yes, he has been this irritating ( on the CGC boards ) for almost 2 decades. I'm sure he was irritating before that, but I wasn't aware of him before CGC.

Also, it's funny you mentioned that if Borock had been asked to give his opinion as a grader he would've done so...implying otherwise he'd get over on the guy like you did. Not the Borock I personally know, but YMMV.
It's also funny that the same dealer at the same con opined to someone I'm friends with who at the time worked at one of the grading companies that he wished he had asked someone else to take a look at them first.
