Carl, I have no idea of what took place in your eBay auction, not do I care. That is between you & the high bidder. I DO have to take exception to your comment about the chipping community filled with snakes that lie in some sort of snake pit. I for one, have been involved in this snake infested community for the last 6 to 8 years and have NEVER been bitten. Our club has some of the finest & most honorable people I have ever met in my many years of collecting, trading & buying all kinds of stuff. Your statements apprear harsh & uncalled for, & I do take exception!!!!!
