You then told an absolutely moving origin story about your friend getting you into the hobby by telling you he made $4k flipping Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook cards, but that proved to be false! You're still here and you love it though! It's kind of crazy that an extremely high-end bobble-head mover like yourself would fall for such a story.
Congratulations on your new friendship, btw. I know you spoke of a petty axe to grind with the guy that didn't know you existed, but it seems we have a genuine bromance brewing here. It really does make me feel warm inside, Garnet. I'm happy for you.
I do genuinely hope that the "high-end crowd" lets you feel like you belong. You're a clown with such a yearning to belong. It might change your life. I'd encourage you to take a step back and realize you already do belong to a community, though. You fit in so well with the overall theme of sycophantic behavior in this thread by a small subset of the forum. Complete sympatico, like you read and dream about! I hope Eric helps you get some cards you want.
Eric owns a lot of trimmed/altered cards that are not disclosed properly. There is no proof that Eric was involved in the process of altering them. There is proof that Eric is very-well versed in the high-end market and the cards that populate it. I'd go so far to call him an expert, honestly. It's almost disrespectful to suggest he didn't know they were altered.

This return was a year and a half ago and I have transitioned into mostly high end. I like the cards and the economics of the cards much more. You are still not telling that story correctly but I get that you're just trying to make me look bad. The high end community has been much more easy to deal with and I have really enjoyed it. The people are older, mature, professional and there's no name calling. You can follow me on IG but I don't post everything.

I see you don't understand

I don't look down on people that collect $6 cards. You inferred that. You can believe me or you can assume I look down on people. It's up to you. In all sincerity, I'm sorry that I came across that way. I very much do not believe in being BETTER than anyone.
