It's kind of why went all out with my post about the high end community. I'm not concerned about burning bridges with people that call me names despite never meeting me.

You just get in the hobby and are defending a guy who AT THE VERY LEAST has shady cards. Nobody can say for certain how he came to own those, or when they became “shady”. What we all know is that they are shady and that eventually they will be sold.
All this thread is here for is a warning to others and a healthy reminder.
What went completely over your head, is that you are actually the mark for these shady dealings. These high-end pieces that have suspect prices are being passed along to you, because you are the mark.
Nobody here is upset with you because of the cards you own. They’re upset because you came across as a tool in those posts, claiming the high horse when most here just look and laugh because you’re the EXACT type of person to fall victim to this stuff.
As long as you don’t ask the forum to donate $1 to you, you’re good. Just listen when some of these guys try to educate you because there are plenty of people well versed in how these schemes go.
