Super happy for Daryl, Powell, and the other winning bidders to have the option to close out their deals. Happy for ML and the consignors too.

Plus, of course, that the later recovery of the items does not change that they hosted a fake auction for items they did not have. I’m not sure if folks just do not understand the actual objections or are willfully ignoring the actual objections made to try and frame it as if eventual recovery is contradictory to the dissenters statements and proof positive that those against the undeniable lies are inherently wrong.

I hear you. You’re preaching to the choir. There will still be certain people repeatedly screaming that everyone else is a blowhard without recognizing the irony in what they say.

Default recovery of stolen cards

First and foremost, GREAT news on the recovery of the stolen cards. I
look forward to a much more thorough explanation of events.

Idea for punishment of thief- he must serve all the Old Fashioneds and Ambien
combos to RepublicaninMass before he posts his ridiculous comments. On
second thought, that's cruel and unusual... Jail time must suffice!

Yes we are the world!! Kumbayah!!!

I'm going to peruse the catalog again to see the fraudulent items I didn't bid on, but passionately argue my views on and demand justice!

JUSTICE!!!

Recovery of the cards is great for the consigners and the winning bidders. But it changes nothing about whether or not ML made unwise and/or unethical decisions along the way.

Reminds me of why poker can often be so profitable. Player A turns a straight and moves all in for $10k with one card to come in a $1k pot. Player B has a flush draw and calls the $10k bet. River card brings the flush. Player B celebrates and half the table tells him he made the right call because he caught his flush.

Are you okay? You’re so over the top in this thread it’s weird, invoking religious prejudice, your class bullshit, constant willful misstatement of what you’re arguing against. Why are you taking this so personally and lashing out so nonsensically?

Good news is they have plenty of money now to pay for the poorly scanned Gehrig.

From the SCD article: Jacob Paxton, 27, of Brunswick, OH, was arrested Wednesday and is facing felony theft charges.


Leon, no Net54 membership for this fellow!

Glad they tracked down the cards (52 of the 54) and made the arrest. On a side note, I am positive that Memory Lane has revised their 'shipping to event' procedures.

Pretty amazing. For anyone not interested in the article it sounds like he tried to sell a few to a local dealer.

Memory Lane expects to receive the stolen cards fairly soon and will allow the winning bidders to complete payment if they desire.
