I have a couple of things that I don't like

1) When I go to card shows dealers think or treat me like I don't know anything because I'm 16 but I pretty much know more then them about what they are trying to ell.
2) When people reply in box breaks saying "I need that card" instead of complimenting the person for the break and thanking them for sharing.
3) Pack Searchers

I think that is it.

His father tells him he shouldn't collect who he does because they're not investments. That's why he continuously asks TCCers who he should collect.

Let's see, another one of mine...

And this is a small one that I feel dumb for even let bother me, but when people say they have scans but those scans are really photographs of the product. I keep thinking, "A scan requires a scanner!"

Ugh.

1. Pack Searchers
2. People who are in the Hobby ONLY for $$$ (sorry for the people who are here just for the $$$)
3. People who must trade "exact" BV's and can't trade a $12 card they need for a $15 card I need (even if I throw in a serial #d card of there player worth $5
4. Spammers (I guess that's not with the 'hobby' more just online trading)

Sorry for the rant

Those are all good ones.

I'll add a couple personal ones:

Sellers who jack up their card's value..

People who write on this site (or any collecting site) in hieroglyphics or are looking for a specific player but continually spell that player's name wrong..

Since Im old and eccentric.. and obsessive/compulsive.. I have lots of Pet peeves

10. Kids who mock other video busters with hyped up excitement!
9. Card show dealers that know nothing about sports!
8. Whozit grading Companies at Card shows charging Becketts Price
7. Ebay sellers going thru a Divorce or Heart Attack
6. Customers asking Card shop " have all the hits come out of this box?"
5. Having Ebay ripped photos in your Bucket!
4. comments like "would you take $8 dlvd for the ripken auto? "
3. BECKETT PRICE GUIDES!

and my number 2 Pet peeve

2. "Collectors" and I use that term loosely worried only about Book Value!

And Finally at the top of the Pop list ... #1

I just thought of anohter one I HATE when people try and sell autographs that they got TTM. The athlete went out of their way to sign it so you shouldn't go and sell it. Why do you think none of the big name stars sign anymore? Also I don't see it here but on SCN but I hate when people try to keep other player's addresses secret. If you have a address for an athlete you should share the wealth if you got an auto back from the address.

I don't see these examples on TCC though!

Here are a few more I can think of:

1. eBay sellers who find it absolutely necessary to make a killing through shipping.

2. plain white envelopes.

3. people who try to save on penny sleeves by cramming as many cards as they can into 1.

4. fake patches.

I have only ever gone to one card show, and it didn't happen too much, but it annoyed me as well! I am pretty small for being 16, so it really bugged me when they treated me like I was dumb.

I think it has already been mentioned, but:

People who enter a box break thread and say 'I call so-and-so' or 'I need so-and-so', without offering a 'Good luck!' or 'Nice break!'.
