Im still in shock that he sent me this deck for FREE.
I dont think I deserve it but greatly appreciate it and even though it was a gift, I owe matt a big one for being so cool.
I try to pay it forward all the time and this gift is definitely a motherfucker motivator.
Matt, I cant thank you enough for this unbelievably generous gift.
He sent it to me after the whole deechnz debacle bullshit.
I dont think I deserve it at all and im still in complete shock that someone would send this to me just because they wanted to do something nice for someone.
MATT YOUR THE FUCKING MAN!! THANKS SO MUCH AND I OWE YOU ONE!!
Oh.......and here's the deck. Im sure most people would shit their pants like I did when a deck like this showed up on their door step....for FREE

And Mike (HPW) does pay it forward.
I bought some old iron-on transfers from him. Not only did he give me a super generous SnB discount, he also threw in a free AC/DC one as well, which was a great surprise when I received them today.
Excellent guy. |

Thanks Colin!
Oldbones/Matt is super fucking selfless and obviously super generous.
I asked him "how can you give this to me!?! I don't deserve it!!"
His answer was "easy come, easy go"
How awesome is that? Super duper nice guy!
Their are people on here that would kick their mom in the face just to get a 5 dollar coupon towards a "toe knee hawk" deck! |

Not really random since I was stalking but rad and pertinent nonetheless:

Not nos but it's close!!!
No drilling, no grip, no residue!
Just some scuffs, very light sticker shadowing and barely two plys of wear.
So this is the story. Imagine winning ultra rare decks on some low priced buy it now auctions. Then imagine losing two out of side deals where the decks where being sold out from under you as the rightful owner. Only to win another great deal a few weeks later but this time being stalked to give up the deck that was just delivered to your hands a week earlier. Well, that's exactly what happened to HANDPLANTWILLY.
Guess who the stalker was...me.
From earlier posts, you can see that mkelty had noticed a buy it now auction for the nicest example of my grail other than the one located at NHS. The auction lasted all of ten minutes and completely eluded my radar. Once alerted I quickly found the deck under completed auctions. I began to read the feedback. There it was, the eBay user name and I recognized it from my mental rolodex. The name was one of a skullandbones member.
That person was Mike and he was nice enough to entertain my inquiries even though he was not interested in selling. Instead, like I had feared he asked about trades. I backed off but the deck haunted me and I decided that I couldn't just let it slide. I had to think about a trade. We messaged back and forth as I attempted to give up some offerings. I was beginning to feel that it would be a lost cause. I understood HANDPLANTWILLY had won the deck fair and square and that I wanted to do what was right by Mike. I was prepared to let the idea go rather than harass the man. Mike then said he had an idea but wanted me to answer a question for him first. The question, in all honesty he wanted to know what value I put on this deck. I gave him my best answer...
Guess what Mike did.
He thanked me for my honesty and then proceeded to give me the deck for the extra cost of two whiskey shots in order so he could forget what happened. Mike felt that I deserved to have the deck. It was an amazing gesture; one that you don't find too often these days.
I had to read his message three times before I realized what was actually happening. To think he wanted nothing from me but a promise. A promise to return the deck back to him should I ever find a nos white dip or a white dip in better condition.
Stoked!
The man deserves a medal.
Thank you HANDPLANTWILLY!!
It would be an honor to return the deck back to you some day.
Good on you oldbones!
...and thanks again HPW! |
