Wow, this has been talked about as a possibility for so long, it's somewhat surreal to finally see it happen.

Both Allen and Theotikos are currently executives of Legendary Auctions, based in south suburban Lansing. Mastro, Allen and Theotikos will be arraigned on dates to be determined in U.S. District Court in Chicago.

Ouch -- I have sold Bill many items. Always appreciated his business -- I wonder if he will be at The National in Baltimore later next week?

Auction Houses that engage in hidden reserves, back door deals,salting their auctions with things they own, certain items being " protected"!?!?

PSA holdering a card and looking the other way.


These practices will certainly not make it into Letterman's Museum of " The Hard to Believe"!!!!


I'm shocked. Not.

I take a reality pill every morning..but thats just me.

CR


BTW for you folks in candyland,Did you know that lots of Collectibles dealers actually sell counterfeit items and Repros? ( Shocked right? ) ( Smirk )
