Scott, I add my plea that you do not hold the actions of one person against the card collecting peopla as a whole. I have traded with Brian, and met him in person at the Ann Arbor and Chicago collector's events, and he seems to be a nice guy, but just has a fatal flaw in the area of organization and getting things done. Many people will note that they have problems getting ahold of him when trying to finalize a trade or close an auction. He promises to do more than he seems to be able to handle. If you sit across a table from him and do some trading, it will be a great time. But over the web or in the mail, he sometimes just never gets to do what he plans to. I thank him for one thing. When I am late in getting something mailed or answering an e-mail, I am prodded in getting my ass in gear because I know how mad people get at him when things don't go right.
