There is also the matter of the $20,000 for the list of former major league players and their contact info. Why would an auction house need or care about that?
It is at least a possibility that Kranepool was the victim of a fraud perpetrated by someone claiming to be Goodwin.

How do you think auction houses get all the material they sell? Not all items are offered to them, they go out and look for items to make $ on. Even on this forum there are several members that have ties to auction houses. I know they reach out to people when they post something that they think they can get the owner to consign it to them. You can even look in the BST section and see several wanted posts by dealers/consignors.
I think a list of former MLB players with contact info with items to sell would be worth their time/money.
