i didnt ask him that question because i think any of the ozcard dealers do that i wouldnt know ive never bought any boxes off anyone here i just asked him because ive heard so many people on here complaining about it i thought it was a question that had to be asked i,m sorry if i offended anybody
cheers
Add me to the list, i stopped and said hi while there was noone else at his counter...he looked me up and down and then went back to looking at his phone without saying anything back. I'm a normal looking guy, not sure what his problem was.

Hi mate
can you give me a link to that video i think its same guy that shunned me
As a collector (and one who worked in a card shop years ago) I hate it when sellers are rude and treat the collectors like s**t!! I would rather spend the extra few dollars and buy from a friendly seller ie: Gary Westriot (need a discount now Gary lol) !! 
seriously though the collectors/buyers control the market and I dont care if this dude has his cards at 50% off he can go shove em with that attitude. anyway it's always good to catch up with fellow collectors at these shows.

cheers for the link mate
If the guy in the video is the rude seller you are talking about, then I agree with you that every time I was at the show, he has always got this snobbish attitude that didn't make me want to go near his store. Unfortunately, I believe he is one of the people who organized footy players to come to the shows and sign cards, because he is the only person who is selling those APCS autograph cards.

From my experience of going to card shows, I don't recall this guy's card ever being cheaper than Gary's.... unless he is really having a 50% off sale. But I will always buy cards from Gary, he is friendly and knows how to do business.

Hey Brian, I totally agree. Never meant my post to say that Gary is expensive to buy from just saying that it's always easier and better to buy from someone that actually gives a s*** and is easy to talk to... Like Gary!!
I know exactly what you mean, Gary is a great guy to have in this hobby... I think he is the only one at the Sydney show who still does box breaks at the show, he also actively films others' breaks and post them here.
