I don't have an opinion on the Ruth bat in the Feller museum, but I did see it last year and took lots of pics and posted them to the memorabilia board.

So because he wont admit to do anything wrong we should not look at what he has to say. Dan do you have any idea how many items have been proven not to authentic or stolen because of him. He does not only go after Rea. In the last few weeks it has been Huggins and Scot, REA and Heritage. I dont think he has any favorites.

Reaction to the 'new' Nash is going to differ widely among collectors. For me, I have no use for him until he admits his wrong-doing publicly, on his site. Even then, until he quits stealing information from this board (and I assume other places as well), I have no use for him - in addition to being a liar, he's also a plagiarist.

That's just my own thoughts about it - I realize that for some, as long as he's providing useful information today, all else is okay. I do read his site, and I do find useful information there, but I'm not patting him on the back.

I think attitudes toward him might mellow a bit if he had cards for sale that people wanted or needed. Just a hunch and I'm probably wrong.

Information given freely and publicly, can not be stolen.

If one also publicly states that he has no use for someone, then uses what that person states or does, one has the appearance of a hypocrite.

As for others seeking a public shaming to appease their sense of right and wrong, then let those others publicly confess their misdeeds first.

I have a pint glass with Homer Simpson quotes that is more useful than the above.

Ben, the guy called me a hypocrite and said it's okay for people to plagiarize other people's work. Quite honestly, I could throw virtual haymakers at that guy all night long. And I'm drinking beer tonight, not coffee.

I have a great time on Net54, but while the card forum and the non-autograph forums involve my primary collecting areas, I come to the autograph forum purely for entertainment. Not to slight anyone, but I really don't learn much here. Anyone who has anything useful to share does so via phone, email and PM. And if I can say that, and I'm no expert at anything related to autographs, you can imagine how guys like Jim must feel.

When anyone with anything worth sharing says that they are "leaving", they just mean this forum. The people in here who cause such events are the only ones missing out - everyone who is actually serious about exchanging information and knowledge will continue to do so, just not here.

Leon - please do not EVER merge this sub forum back with the others. You've allowed those who choose to, to ignore it altogether. That's a great option to have.

LOL. I believe Scott and I share the same credo: I (we) don't suffer fools gladly.
(I actually used that phrase in my Match profile. AND got a wife out of it!)

Haymaker? Scott tosses pipe bombs as if they are cigarette butts.

And before anyone gets their panties in a wad, I am NOT calling anyone a fool. Publicly. Yet.

See, what you did here, you didn't respond how someone wanted you to, so your reward is a snide remark. Been happening way to often over here recently.

I think the cause is "I'm-so-full-of-myself,-I-think-everyone-wants-to hear-every-one-of-my-witticisms,-ramblings,-and-bitchslaps"-itis. We're in the process of running off the intelligent people out there so we can fill the forum with "That's fake because I said so" and "I've got the biggest d*ck on the internets" threads.

Ken

PS: I've set the timer to see how long until I've been hit with a virtual haymaker!

no, you are right.

If I bought a card from him I'd be afraid it was fake.

I don't own any cards Mastro owned (always got outbid in his auctions), but I do own two Nebraska Indian cabinet photos that Rob Lifson helped me obtain by sending someone who contacted him to me.

It's hard to know if what he's posting is true or if it's vendetta. He was heavily involved in fraud in this hobby and he's out there lobbing bombs at everyone without so much as a sentence on his own crimes. He's the Jimmy Swaggart of the baseball memorabilia world...until I hear him tell us how much he sinned he's just another charlatan to me.
