That's all I can say.
When Wes told me he had grabbed the 1/1 autograph of Rodney for me from Select I was left amazed. Nobody had ever gone as far as he had for such a card. His only response other than "you're welcome" was," I couldn't let you miss out on it. May never be listed again."
Amazing friend he has been since we started talking a few years ago. Not just for hobby aspect, but in general. He always has my back and always listens. I always do the same for him. Better friendship then I have nearby.
Enough with the chatter about that, let's check out the card. Stunning and only my second rainbow in my collection and my first autographed one.
I still am in need of the 1/1 Black Select non die cut parallel as my last need overall for Select.
Another quick back story on this card, this was the card I was once offered on Twitter by a guy who messaged me he had pulled it. This was the one I told you guys about on here that went into trade talks into the middle of the night and was within one card of finishing. Before bed I had the one card to offer the guy. I woke up the next morning pretty confident I had it, that's when he told me he had listed it overnight and got an offer already for $80. Said he could get more but would sell it to me for $100 (it went for $87 in the end). I was not pleased that he backed out of the trade first of all and then tried hustle me for more money when I had already told him I had no PayPal to begin with.
But, all turned out well in the end for me. There was a happy ending to this story with all thanks to my brother Wes. I don't know how to repay you for what you did, but I will find a way somehow. Thanks again for this and for being a great friend.
