Its been a great run but its time to move on. As some of you may know my new bouncing baby boy just came into the world. Baby Raoul Dave Cory Garcia FuckthatguySteve John-Pound was born happy and healthy just this past week. Life has been crazy as you can imagine, not much time for....anything really other than baby lol. My wife decided it would be best to not have all the space, time and money tied up in hobbies. Its sad to leave behind but its the sensible thing to do she says. So I'll start listing my collection here till its all gone. This isn't a money making deal, I'll post and average price then get whatever offers I get then move on to the next thing. If you had an eye or suspicion of something it will pop up and be sold so stay tuned. I'll start posting in the next day or 2 but the quicker its all gone the happier mamma "the boss" will be. Really its for the best she says so no hard feelings. Man, this is a massive bummer. We need guys like you in the hobby, not leaving it. Congrats on the baby though. It'll be a fun ride.

Bummer Tommy, but your long named little dude is top priority. I know mine resulted in a slowing down of picking stuff up!

Bittersweet news. First, congrats! But, you add a lot to these boards, so your wit and knowledge will be missed. Once you sell everything and get settled, I hope you come back and build up the collection again. Oh, and you know what I'm looking for...PM will be sent. Best of luck!

Thanks to all the well wishers, I didn't expect this much outpouring. But without further adieu lets get this show on the road. Here we have a simply stunning piece of GPK memorabilia, top shelf icon Flamin' Damon on his original card in the mighty 9th series from waaaaay back in 1987!!! This beautiful gem is an easy PSA 9, or dare I say PSA 10? Not sure your collection can handle such a grail? Well it makes the perfect gift! Not just GPK collectors but people that collect 80s memorabilia, playground equipment fans and especially slide enthusiasts will get endless hours of entertainment from the legendary card. Not only do you get the card but included is a penny sleeve keeping it contained and stunningly mint. So how much for this grail? Starting offer is the low low price of $50.00 (plus 19.85 shipping and handling). May seem a bit high at first but how many of this legendary card pop up in the wild? maybe 1,000?? How many 50 dollar bills are there? About a billion so you can see the rarity. Go into any bank and they have stacks of 50s, but do they have stacks of Flamin' Damon??? Do they even have 1? NO! This card isn't even available at the top retailers in the country, Walmart, Target, Piggly Wiggly??? None to be found! So lets do this! Who will be the lucky winner? Lets come together and get this bad boy sold, I have so much more stuff to list but need to list one at a time so I don't get overwhelmed. Faster we can move through this the happier the wife will be. I'm actually a bit worried that some of these could take a while to sell and I could have this collection for decades to come.

It’s exactly what t is. Outpour. Most still prolly don't know. But after this magical piece being offered for the first time since someone bought a series 9 set or box. ( 1 might of sold yesterday ). So not so often in the same day do we see this being displayed for auction. Conclusion: So maybe your pulling and early April’s fools joke Not “selling out “ to the man !!!! Downsize if this is all true , not evactuate

He is just hallucinating at the moment. Insomnia mixed with new baby. Maybe I’m just trying to convince myself that

When he starts packaging up Cracked Jack, he will wake up from the nightmare and end up packing up his wife and sending her to Mexico.

Soooooo I haven't had as many offers as I thought regarding the Damon sale. I think a lot of you are on the fence whether you think your collection is even worthy, let me say you are worth it! Go for it! Also I think it might be a technical issue, can everyone see the gem photo? That could be it, you might think this is Flamin' Raymond instead of Flamin' Damon and really who wants OS10 trash so I get it. This is the exact card you will get, OS9 Flamin' Damon. Stunner!!!
Just to sweeten the pot I will include a wrapper with purchase! Not sure a wrapper of what but I'm sure it will be great trust me.

Alright, enough Mr Nice Guy. Put the baby down, stop teasing us, and tell us what you're selling!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Besides that really awesome Flamin' Damon.
Or, are others right that this isn't true. Is this some grand conspiracy!? Oh, the horror.
