Default REA v. Mastro

Posted By: Alan

I agree with Barry. One thing that you have to remember is that Mastro has a huge staff & REA is just Rob & maybe a few others (?) so you might tend to get personal service more from REA. However, as Leon pointed out, REA doesn't set up at the National. I wish they would too.

Now, I was extremely impressed that Bill Mastro himself took the time to come to my car in the parking lot during a show to look at my stuff for possible consignment. And, even though it wasn't "Mastro worthy", he never degrated me or my collectibles.

Another thing to keep in mind is that REA concentrates more or less on baseball cards & memorabilia whereas Mastro has thicker sections for all sports cards & memorabilia.

These are the two best sports auction houses in the business, so arguments will be endless...
