Their last auction was not spectacular, but the next auction is

eye popping. Obviously some consignors are not too worried. I think they'll survive this.

I'm not so sure. That list of Net54ers who are boycotting Mastro/Legendary was pretty long last time I looked.

Yeah, but I gotta strong feeling that in this hobby the *stuff* outweighs just about everything else. I'm not questioning the folks who have said they'll boycott, but there's a lot more folks reading this board that didn't sign that list.

Dan, turn off your computer's sarcasm filter.

It's possible that they may survive the hobby's scorn, but they may not survive the FBI and grand jury.

Quite possible, but I gotta feeling whatever shell game they played to turn Mastro into Legendary somehow protects their new venture. May not seem fair, but that's business in the US and A....and to be fair it's the same game that two (maybe more?) big clients of Mastro's played in order to keep and not pay for the items they won from Mastro.

You can learn so much on internet chat boards. I, for one, am thankful for them.

Hey, I said "I gotta feeling"...I didn't say that I know.
