Tom Boblittinexperienced bidders that can afford to buy something in Mastro's auctions anymore....given the current average lot sales prices......
I support pretty much whatever Leon does with this although I support transparency if possible on what revenues it's bringing (or at least what's being charged per ad or per impression). I also think that Eliot and Bill should be compensated although Leon does more now probably than they, so 3 way split might not be equitable.....
I would rather see MULTIPLE ads sold at a # of impressions, so one single entity doesn't really 'control' (I know they won't control) all the advertising because I would be more inclined to agree with Jay at that point that it would look like we were advocating a single entity out there. Most of us bid with most, if not all, the auction houses (large and small) and many of us use multiple grading companies (if we grade).
As Dennis Miller used to say.....Just my opinion, I could be wrong....
