I recall a couple years ago there was a one color LBJ that was in pretty bad condition, could have been a bgs 6..then sold for relatively cheap and resurrected as a bgs 8 or something.

I was into the high end market for a while and then I essentially lost 100k on a card that that turned out being trimmed. Pretty much ruined the hobby for me. Met quite a few people in the high end market during that time and they were all pleasant and the nicest people you can meet. Came to realize they are just buttering you up to get a good deal on your cards. If you don't have what they want anymore, they could care less about you.

I'm interested to know how good a friend can you be after just a few conversations about cards... Enough to have their backs when they are obviously in the wrong? I dont know, reminds me of when I was a kid and people were only your friend because you always had the newest toys.
