A buddy of mine called me this week to ask me to find a home for his buck rogers pin. He bought it last year with hopes to fix it, but his doctor told him his cancer is back and he has 6 to 8 weeks to live..

I don't know whats wrong with it.. I think the GI comes up but thats it.. I can take pics of it on monday if anyone is intersted. I think the backglass is just starting to flake, but the rest of the pin looks nice. As for price, I would say whatever you wanted to give him.
 
6-8 weeks.. dam thats messed up. I cant even imagine getting
news like that.

My prayers go out to him. If I was closer...

Yeah, when cancer comes back, its almost always game over.. I had not seen him in about a year.. He is a big guy, like 6' 2", but he looks like he weighs about 150 now down from like 250.. He is a tough old guy, I would bet on him to be around for a while.. He is more upset that he just finished buying off his buisness partner and the next day he gets the news..

Over the last 2 years I sold 25 of his games(2 left to go). I also fixed the 5 he wanted to keep for his kids and grandkids. I know he has about a dozen EM pins that I have not seen, but he plans to keep them.
