Man - and I thought my thread was long. From what I have heard and observed, Vic is a guy to be avoided.

The Round-Robin fiasco speaks volumes. He ignores any question about that incident.

He tried to see how stupid I was in a proposed trade - trying to trade $1 chips at face when his was worth $3 and mine was worth $20.

When I mentioned the TCR values, he came back with "TCR - what is that?"

A few weeks later he posted that he had passed the 1,000 chip milestone in his collection.

I asked him how it was he could buy 1,000 chips and not have a TCR.

Naturally he didn't respond.

I don't know if this shipping beef is old, because if so, you aren't the first to feel cheated by Vic.

As others have noted, he is not one to deal with on sales trades or anything else if you can help it.

As far as keeping this sort of thing off TCB - I agree that it's kinda long; however, new members should know who to avoid and in that light, I consider it something of a public service announcement.

Best wishes on the next buy!
