Default Mastro and FBI

Posted By: Dan Bretta

O'Keeffe may indeed have it in for Mastro, but there is a serious pattern going on here that is disturbing....I just don't buy the fact that Mastro didn't get MEARS opinion on the jersey in time...this is BS. Those guys all know each other and they're located in the same city. Mastro even did the press release for MEARS online!!!!

When the Behrens boys and I flew to Chicago to go over the DiMaggio streak bat where do you think we met with the guys who now run MEARS??? That's right...the MastroNet office.

What's really disturbing though is that these types of "mishaps" continue with Mastro knowing full well that the Gameused universe and Net54 are watching them like hawks. If they think they can get away with it they're wrong because these two forums and Michael O'Keeffe have become the watchdog of the industry.

And anything with a Lou Lampson COA should be as questionable as an autograph with a Frangipani COA.

edited to add: that Doug Allen surely knows that Lampson's COA isn't worth sh!t anymore and there shouldn't be any kind of time pressure in his business when it comes to making sure you get it right the first time...the jersey should have been held back for the August auction if there were any doubts...you don't put something in your catalog that is questionable.
