I am not going to post pictures of my collectibles, Retard Joe.

My collection contains many cards that you could never afford and will never own, Senile Joe.

But taking pictures of them and posting them here will not happen.

...a vintage Hockey Card from 1952 I'd recently purchased @The Prowler:



Perhaps you have others rarer on in better condition than that?

I have at least 15 of his cards in much better condition, Senile Joe.

Think about where he was born, you dumb ass.

Now think about his last name, stooge.

Now think about how closely I might be related to him, retard.

Uncle Milty would be pissed if he knew a goof like you had one of his cards.

Yanno, Ya seem like a German @The Prowler.

Cuz you gotta really harsh bombastic streak in ya.

Not saying all, but I notice a lotta Germans are like that.

That's what they say the Kaiser was like.
Hitler too I suppose.

From what I understand, Kitchner was once called 'Berlin' owing to its German heritage/immigrants, Prowler.

That's where PM Mackenzie King was born, eh

Yanno Prowler during WWII, my mother said many German POWs visited her Dad's farm in Alberta. They'd 'escape' for the night and come on over to drink tea and have dinner. Apparently, a lotta 'em were relieved that they were taken Prisoner and didn't have ta fight (and probably die) on the front lines and battlefields of Europe. They were well-fed in Canada, which took good care of them and highly regarded in the local community for their hard work, eh? I think many of them were exceptionally well-behaved because they were afraid of being sent back to the front. apparently they were model 'prisoners'.

The German POWs were useful during harvest time when my Mom's Dad needed help.

You are probably the bastard child of one of them, Senile Joe.

Do you feel proud or ashamed of being a German, Prowler?

I mean what your ancestors did to the Jews in WWII seems ta cast a shadow over ya Prowler.

I hope you can accept your past, Prowler.

You loser, Joe.

My family has been here since the 1700's.  All my ancestors since the 1800's have all been from North America.

Every troll/flame you try is way off the mark.

Do you get sick of failing, Joe?

Honeybunch, I thought you loved my German ancestry.

So Joe have you opened the box yet?

Case of mystery ice hockey cards found in Canadian basement fetch $3.7m at auction



An unopened case of ice hockey cards found in a basement office has earned a family in Canada $3.1m USD ($4.2m CAD; £2.4m) at auction.

Inside there could be more than 20 "rookie cards" of Wayne Gretzky, one of the sport's greatest ever players.

The family who discovered the case hidden in their Saskatchewan office were "ecstatic" at the sale, an auction house spokesman said.

The winning bid was made by a Canadian who is choosing to stay anonymous.

With a 20% premium on top of the purchase, the final amount the Canadian bidder will pay is about $3.7m.

Heritage Auctions, which is based in Dallas, called the discovery of the pristine 1979-80 cards from the now-defunct O-Pee-Chee candy and trading card brand, "the greatest unopened find of the 21st Century".

That characterisation is based on the valuable trading cards - Mr Gretzky's rookie card, in particular - that could be inside. Rookie cards are the first that depict an athlete as a professional player, and many collectors will pay a premium for them.

An individual Gretzky card can fetch anywhere from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Heritage Auctions sold one 1979 O-Pee-Chee card for $3.75m three years ago - a record.

Heritage Auctions said in its lot description that because there are 396 cards in the set, there could be about 27 physically pristine Gretzky rookies inside the brown cardboard case.

"And, I mean, there's no guarantees, but it would be a pretty big statistical anomaly" for it to deviate greatly from that number, said Jason Simonds, a sports cards specialist at Heritage.

....and you know who the main draw is and always is?

Gretzky! Gretzky! GRETZKY!

Ferget everyone else.

Every other player in the modern NHL is a nobody. Mere dogs.

If her gonna collect Modern post 1975 hockey cards always buy Gretzky. He's the only one of the moderns whose worth anything and sells.

You could collect only Gretzky & yad never lose Ollie! He's the only one who sells above asking consistently & could make the collector of modern day stuff a profit.

Just specialize in Gretzky!

[TheProwler]

They overpaid, IMO.

There are a lot of examples of people making better deals.

Here is one:
