Default Problem with John Ward Four Base Hits

Posted By: Corey R. Shanus

To say BOTH the consignor and the auction house have acted entirely above board in this charade is analagous to saying 2+2=7. In regard to the consignor, I don't think I can overstate my skepticism that he BOTH made full disclosure to the auction house AND expected that this information would be included in the catalogue description. In regard to the auction house, if in fact it never had any intention to mislead prospective bidders, then I would respectfully recommend that it take a time out from the business of auctioning baseball cards to acquire some basic knowledge about card doctoring/restoration and telltale red flags (e.g, why wasn't this card slabbed) that suggest that something underhanded might be going on.
