And are you a consignor in Goodwin auctions?  I'm not.
 
I've got no hidden agenda unlike many people posting on this thread.  And if I recall, you trash Mastro as well -- let me guess: you haven't consigned there in some time?
 
Woops, I didn't want to forget this oddity: http://www.goodwinandco.com/LotDetail.aspx?lotid=3293 | 
	
 Exactly Jeff this is not a criminal courtroom.  It is not a courtroom at all and so it should not be used as one.  
Again, I am not speaking for Goodwin so stop twisting my words.  I said it sounds like a hidden reserve and if it is, I have no idea what the law says about that kind of practice and was not speaking about if it was appropriate or not. 
I do trash Mastro but compared to you I look like one of their supporters.  Big difference between us in that way Jeff.  I prefer not to be lumped in with you in that way.  
Thanks for answering my questions.  Your silence says it all.
