My only personal experience with Mr. Rosen was in 2014 when I called the number listed on one of his ads to ask advise.
I was first shocked that a secretary did not answer - then, he was very pleasant and patient with my novice knowledge.
He let me know that the price I was mentioning was a good one for the item I had in mind. That, along with my own limited research, let me feel comfortable enough to make the purchase - and since then, the sale prices of the same item in the same condition have appreciated quite a bit.
I did not ask too much of him, just his honest opinion as someone who has been in the hobby for many years and did not have a 'stake' in the transaction.
He was also reputed to be involved in my 'White Whale' story, but when I asked him, he did not remember it.
THANK YOU, SIR!
Rest In Peace
- I regret never calling him back and thanking him for his input.
