Mods, please allow me to indulge if this should be in the Buy/Sell section, if only for a few hours, as this thread relates to a gift that was given from Gyre-Viper and I just really feel the need to sing his praises here.
A week ago, I expressed interest in a really rare item that I missed out on and had no channels or possibility of obtaining. While I've been here for 2 years, I don't consider myself as well known or popular per se as guys like Gyre, Arash Tat, Classified, Headman (God forgive me) and some others. In fact, I don;t think Gyre and I really interacted much at all prior to this transaction. He contacted me by PM, we chatted for a bit and he asked for my address. A week later, the item as well as some loose extras, show up (he also understands my OCD of having one sealed, one to open) not only insured, but inside of a plastic tote. The shipping ALONE on this item was $27. He had no reason, nor anything to gain by this other than doing something nice for a fellow collector. It is very rare to see this in our hobby and I just wanted to share this wonderful experience. Thank you Gary...I am indeed paying it forward with a new friend I made in England. Brian |

Awesome story man. I have seen threads of the Gary giveaways and we all know he is notorious for helping people out. +100!
(I still stand by my post in stating I don't think he is human, and while I have evidence that proves this claim, again , I will not be posting it for obvious reasons.)

Nice.
You do realize he only does this, so that if he ends up in prison with any of us, he gets to pitch.

I haven't been here that long, but he has shown to be a real stand up charactor. The world needs more people like him...
There are others here, this is a great community to be a part of.
