There is a short article in todays Chicago Tribune that states Mastro "scammed hundreds of customers of Mastro Auctions by fraudulently jacking up prices on memorabilia through shill bids and hiding information that might have lowered the value of the merchandise."
It seems to me that with this admission there should be a hell of a lot more outrage in the collecting community.
