Not if you shift all the risk onto the consignors.

mastro/legendary has had plenty of opportunity to pay their consignors. They choose not to. And it stinks.

This explains why, despite some collectors' applauding of the practice in the names of quick shipping and good customer service, I never thought it such a great idea for an auction house to ship winnings before receiving payment.

I am far from a Mastro apologist but Madoff ruined hundreds, if not thousands, of folks financial futures. I doubt Mastro has ruined 1 financial future. Not quite the same. Punishments generally do fit crimes.

Please name all of the people, other than maybe internal people (which I doubt too), who Mastro Auctions ruined their financial futures? You may start with the letter "A". I know the starting letter is kind of difficult to figure out. That's my 'ole community college kicking in for ya'!!
