We have long stated
Trust no one Double check everyone It is disappointing (and criminal) that consignors have not been paid by certain auction houses. Given the time, energy and money that long-time collectors have invested in a hobby, when it is time to sell, it is imperative that said collectors are treated with dignity and respect. The Board should dedicate all its efforts to removing any auction houses and/or dealers who violate their legal and moral obligation to the collecting community. The Board should publish a list of auction houses that do not pay on terms and distribute at the National. And their practices should be reported to the Post Office, FBI and local law enforcement. Perhaps there is a few extra rooms in Mr. Madoff's prison to house hobby thieves. Just think by the time they get out their 2009 Topps cards will be more than 100 years old. Perhaps, then they can pay their debts. In the interim, it is time to severely punish the hobby thieves. |

I guess grammar is taking off for the three-day weekend as well ![]() Barry -- I know buddy -- was just giving you a hard time; after all; due to my and my wife's surgeries this week -- we've had the M-I-L over as a guest and you can imagine how that goes on a full time basis ![]() Rich Last edited by Rich Klein; 07-03-2009 at 01:42 PM. |

Great to see Bruce back posting again. Lots of really insightful points in his latest effort — and none of the self-congratulatory stuff we used to read.

He's actually been registered for 2 months and has posted a few times but those posts were in the BST. Perhaps he has been practicing restraint.
