More bad news about Nate Sanders:
Beware eBay buyer "collectiblesbuyer22"
We placed two items on eBay: a John Steinbeck signed book (sold for $1,000+), and a bar stool used by Frank Sinatra in all of his performances in the last years of his career, including his very last performance in 1985 (sold for $6500+).
They were purchased by eBay buyer "collectiblesbuyer22", email address
lljohannes@gmail.com two weeks ago.
The email address corresponds with one Laura Ytema, an employee of the notorious Nate D. Sanders Auctions of Los Angeles. Someone here said she was his wife or fiancee, but he showed up a year ago here with a hot Chinese girl on his arm so maybe that's not the case.
Anyway, Nate soon got cold feet. The stool was described as being accompanied by signed letters of provenance by Sinatra's stage manager and producer. After the sale, "collectiblesbuyer22" demanded new letters of provenance picturing the stool. We obtained them for him. Today he demanded more letters, with two spelling errors corrected, and the letters notarized. We refused to bother the executives any further. He reneged on his obligation, replying "Pass". This from the man who sold Oswald's used coffin.
BTW - Many of you would be amused to learn that a few years ago, we discovered that "Nate the Snake" stole our trash in an attempt to get sales leads. How do we know? Someone in his organization ratted him out, and we "salted" our trash with names otherwise totally unconnected with autographs - then heard that he contacted these "plants. For good measure, we also sprayed the load with some nasty stuff called "Liquid Ass".
