Truthfully there’s a real card Peter Nash tried to con me to invest in for $250,000. It’s so crazy and over the top you will never forget it and I think we can all agree that Peter Nash needs to seriously get professional help. It’s very sad that Nash actually thought I believed in his conman scheme. Here’s the true story:

January of 2007, Pete and I where at the Fireplace Restaurant on route 17 in Paramus, NJ. After we ate Pete tried to pitch to me an investment that would make me millions. Pete wanted me to invest in the 1912 Red Sox first pitched baseball that he had purchased for approximately $140,000 in auction from Sotheby’s. Sometime thereafter buying the 1912 baseball Nash needing money consigned the 1912 baseball to Robert Edward Auctions and borrowed a large sum of money from Robert Edward Auctions against it. Nash wanted me to give him $250,000 for 49% ownership in the 1912 baseball and most of the money would be used to get the 1912 baseball back from Robert Edward auctions. He would then have the baseball cut up and take the string from inside the baseball and have the string cut into 2 inch lengths. Nash knew the full length of the string inside the baseball and how many 2 inch pieces could be made. Then Nash would have a professional company take the 2 inch pieces of string and put them onto a baseball card. After that he would make a deal with the Red Sox and Memorabilia shops to sell this 1912 Red Sox first pitch baseball cards for $20 each. Nash had this crazy conman proposal all figured out showing a gross profit of $28 million and a net profit of $23 million. At the time I was friends with him so I didn’t want to laugh at the idea and tell him how crazy the idea was so I told him my wife, Lisa probably won’t go for it. So then Pete went for the second pitch to get money from me. He asked me to invest in a bunch of Joe Jackson bricks that he acquired from Shoeless Joe Jackson’s house, I’ll leave that story for another time.

Peter Nash instead of writing a bunch of crap on your website and wasting your time. Why don’t you do something constructive and do a nice write up on all the collateral we have of your so we can sell it and apply it to the Judgment we have against you. As you are aware we have a Court Order to sell this collateral in a commercially reasonable manner. As you are aware we have moved our judgment to NY State and filed it in Saratoga County where you live. Remember any money we spend on legal fees going after your assets, we will make a motion to the court for you to pay those legal fees. The interest on the Judgment is over $100 per day. So why don’t you help yourself and pay down on the Judgment by helping us sell your collateral we have been Court Ordered to sell. Our attorney told us we have many options, asset depositions, wage garnishment, bank accounts, personal property, including attaching your website and selling it to the highest bidder. I hope you will help yourself and send me that write up on your collateral.

Selling $28mil of old baseball string would be quite a feat. I'd love to hear the Joe Jackson bricks story.

Let's see....28 million bucks divided by 20 Bucks for each card=1,400,000. cards.

2 inches of string per card= 2,800,000 inches of string.

There are 63,360 inches in a mile or enough for 31,680 cards....but we need 1,400,000 cards

So one would need over44 miles of string to make 1,400,000 cards at 20 bucks a pop to get 28 megabucks.

Are there 44 miles of string in a hardball?

My research says there are 363 feet of string in a baseball, and 744 feet of yarn. I dunno maybe my math is off. Anyone?

The way Nash had it figured out he would take the string apart and use the thread of the string to make the cards. I guess I should have explained it better. Besides trying to con me out of my money I sometime think maybe in his delusional mind he may have believed in his crazy scheme. But of course using somebody elses money. Peter Nash is so delusional he thought the documentary movie he made “Rooters The Birth of Red Sox Nation” would make him a net profit of $600,000. In reality he lost money making the movie.

Pete you need to get a real job. I remember Bekim Laiqi telling me you’re not the same person he use to know. Angela Thomas told my wife and me that you owe Bekim Laiqi and his cousin $300,000. Did you pay them back? I heard you pawned off the collateral they had to a pawn shop. Do you have any memorabilia left? Or did you give everything to Bekim’s cousins when they paid you that unannounced visit.

Peter Nash where exactly are these bricks? In your deposition you said there in South Carolina but where exactly, you need to give details.

Hey Pete, why haven’t you told the story about the Joe Jackson bricks on your website Hauls of Shame? What, why would you be embarrassed, the Joe Jackson house had some real merit. Oh, come on Peter just because you were embarrassed by the joke Richard Davis, from “Flip This House” played on you. Playing that joke on you with the Shoeless Joe Jackson shoes would have made great TV. You could have use the TV show to promote the bricks and made some quick money. You should have let it go, but instead for about one year you went back and forth like a fool editing the film. They got tired of your silliness and cut you out altogether and aired the show without you. I told you to leave it alone. The joke they pulled on you would have made great TV and it would have given you great provenance to promote the Joe Jackson house bricks you own. How foolish to blow an opportunity to make some real money when you needed the money badly. Just think, if you had allowed the TV show to air their way your whole life would be much different. Your pride and arrogance and stupidity have led you down the road of destruction. Where are those bricks now Peter Nash? Rob Lifson has a Court Order to attach and seize any property, personal of real, which belongs to you and the Order specifically names the “building material/bricks from Joe Jackson’s home” among many other items, including the 1880’s Radbourn Providence Silver Trophy Baseball. But you said in your deposition that John Rogers has your Radbourn Sliver Trophy Baseball because you’re working it into a business deal. So does that means John Rogers lied in his affidavit saying all of his loans to you were unsecured? Peter what happen to that signed Joe Jackson baseball that Legendary Auctions had of yours. I was told John Rogers bought it for $15,000 and as you are aware any proceeds of that ball was supposed to be sent to Rob Lifson, minus any commissions owed to Legendary Auctions. You and Rogers have a lot of explaining to do. You better tell Rogers to send that Radbourn Silver Baseball and the money for the Joe Jackson baseball to Lifson because you certainly don’t need any more legal problems. But Pete don't be delusional the bricks are not worth what you think they are, although you could have made some money with them. I certainly hope that place in South Carolina still has the bricks because you certainly need to pay down on your debt.

On which items? The website or the collateral. The website I guess I can start it at $1.00 and see where the bidders take it. I’m sure there's a few companies or people out there that would want to bid on the website.

If Nash doesn’t give provenance or a write up on the collateral maybe I’ll sell all the collateral items in an “AS IS” auction. I can start the bidding at $1.00 and see where it goes. My problem is I hope some of the collateral I have wasn’t stolen from old lady Katherine Dooley in MA. Her attorney Jeff Roberts told me last year they considered going after Nash. He asked me, where is the Hugh Duffy bat. I told him John Rogers bought it in an “AS IS” auction along with a lot of other stuff that came from the Dooley collection, including the signed Babe Ruth mitt that came from McGreevy’s bar. Jeff Roberts, Esq. told me that Nash was allowed to take some stuff from Katherine Dooley’s house and get it appraised but they were never told what those items were. Nash never came back with an appraisal. The law firm did give me a bill of sale of 54 items Peter Nash did buy for $25,000 from Katherine Dooley plus 2 scrap books from sportswriter John Drohan, that Nash paid $1,000 for. But the bill of sale does not include the Hugh Duffy bat nor other McGreevy items like the King Kelly bat, Cap Anson Bat and the signed Babe Ruth mitt and so on. They did give me an inventory list which had the Hugh Duffy listed but the bat was not on the bill of sale. Maybe this is why Peter Nash pleaded the fifth dozens of times. The bill of sale did include the 1898 Hugh Duffy trophy but why didn’t Nash show Robert Edward auctions the bill of sale of the Hugh Duffy trophy. Instead that trophy was part of the “AS IS” sale. One of the law firm’s attorney’s was 50% executor of Kathrine Dooley’s estate. The law firm has a fiduciary responsibility to tell all the heirs what happen with the memorabilia. I wonder if the FBI was searching for the Dooley items at John Rogers properties. She died in June of 2009 so I guess the statute of limitations are good. By the way Legendary Auctions sold the 1898 Hugh Duffy trophy for $36,000. the Hugh Duffy bat and King Kelly bat are now in The National Pastime Museum. legendary Auctions sold the Cap Anson bat in August of 2012 for $53,775.

Peter Nash you should know that just a few months ago that Katherine Dooley’s law firm was deposed. The lawyer said a lot of interesting thing about you such as you returning a baseball that was missing and giving it to the attorney at Katherine Dooley’s funeral.

Seizing the website is an interesting idea. I would definitely look into wage garnishment and possibly going after any ownership interest in his music.

Robert - have you considered Nash possibly not being able to give provenance on some items unless he confessed to fraudulently making them himself? Such as taking something like an old ribbon, attaching it to an old bat, and making something completely (new) out of something old? Kind of like 1 +1 = 3?

Lifson already went after the music Royalties and got nothing because the IRS got there first. The surprising thing is Nash’s Royalties are extremely very small less than $1,000 a year. I don’t know how Peter Nash makes money. Maybe he’s on John Rogers payroll? I don’t think he makes any money with the website because I don’t see any advertising. Maybe John Rogers pays Nash to run the website. I heard that John Rogers may have funded the Hauls of Shame website but I don’t know if that’s true. Rogers should speak for himself and not have Nash do his bidding for him on his website.
