Those auctions that focus most on cards include Memory Lane, Mile High Card Co, Goodwin, SCP, and B & L.

Those that focus about equally on Cards and Memorabilia include Hunt's, REA, Lelands, Clean Sweep, Heritage and Huggins & Scott.

So there are plenty of other options... and I know I omitted quite a few (sorry...)

In all fairness to Legendary, my consignments on the second night did quite well. As a consignor, I really don't like the Individual Lot closing format, but they did seem to realize some good prices in a bad economy. Although they're not anywhere near where Mastro was a few years ago, the quality of the items offered was great. I personally would classify them a "significant" auction house (uh oh - another poll coming?)
