What ever happened to........

Jasondr91 · 06-20-2017, 12:19 PM

Some great members of the hobby that seemed to disappear? Maybe from the other hobby sites such as.....

Dylan the CP3 collector from Houston? He was quite young but had a phenomenal CP3 collection.

Gary I believe, his old name was JimNortonisacomedicgod. I used to swap lots of high end with him, out of Vegas. Used to buy Luol Deng.

Mike Swift out of NY I believe? He broke tons of high end Exquisite, also sold on ebay under mswift.

Just curious about these guys, I miss them around the hobby!

Mswift was in Maryland and had another eBay name that will come to me later.

Dylan not sure but I felt like he said he was getting out but I could be mistaken.

Norton I was just thinking of the other day as he was a great guy and placed bets for me at times.

Whatever happened to Bruce? Wonder where Paul is lurking these days too.

Gary was an exceptional member. gman71 or something along those lines was another one of his IDs. Made several deals with him back in the Beckett board days.

TWard · 06-20-2017, 12:36 PM

Ah, I remember all those guys as well. The Dylan dude had an impeccable CP3 collection.

SPauthentic84 · 06-20-2017, 01:00 PM

Probably sick of bickering on here and not enough cards

MSwift was, I believe, out of Texas. Him and I share the same birthday......

You are correct sir. I like Mr. Swift. Anybody remember the Chris Paul Exquisite /99 rookie fiasco he had when that card released....and non other than Paul got it?

I remember Dylan being pretty young. Dude had an insane CP3 collection TWard....

Which screen name was Bruce? Another cool cat was kidsensasian, out of Houston, TX as well. Dan and I are friends on Facebook, but I don't see him in the hobby anymore.

Also...where's Brandonlec?

Jasondr91 · 06-20-2017, 03:28 PM

I'm willing to bet money Paul is still around. He is/was too active in the hobby to accept a ban.

Dan's Bosh collection was unreal. He had the 4/99 Exquisite RPA, correct?

Another one for the list...Nismo68. That dude must've written some kind of program to snag BINs immediately, cause every available steal went to him within seconds of auction go-live.

Bruce was kromeace

Kidsenasian got into jerseys and autographs for a while and then fell off I believe. He had the best Bosh collection hands down.

Oh crap...THAT Bruce! He was from Sacramento! I do remember him as kromeace!

Dan's Bosh collection WAS nasty.

BigZigBoom · 06-20-2017, 03:47 PM

Pretty certain I have bought MJs from Swift on eBay. What happened to Tristan?

He actually does still post from time to time. Dude had a pretty awesome celtics collection, still would like to grab some off of him if he ever moves them

Yep that guy, I am surprised he never came over here.

It was very telling when Dan left the hobby where it was going IMO.

I think nismo changed his username to lieutva_labas........

TWard · 06-20-2017, 04:43 PM

There were a lot of good people on HK.. and a lot with amazing collections. Luckily some HK leftovers are still on here. I've often wondered if some of the people on there with stellar collections sold off everything when they got away from the hobby.

Btw, I was Ty on HK.

Also, I can't remember his name, but who was the dude that collected the Sofolokis Greek dude?

Ha, could very well be the case given the roll Nick's been on.

But back in the day when eBay allowed you to see what other users were bidding on, I vividly remember looking up Rod's completed listings and thinking "how the f*** does he get EVERY SINGLE STEAL?!??" He was an animal.

TWard · 06-20-2017, 04:45 PM

Also, whatever happened to Damian, aka INFINITE1? He and I used to talk all the time on AIM but then I got out of the hobby and lost touch.

Is HK still around?

Someone should have told JDC to make the jump.

Was Damian the guy from Chicago that started it or am I misremembering?

He did start it but I think he was from California if memory serves correct.

Deekin was from Chicago and was a Super Mod or something.
