That is completely absurd, what purpose does it serve by sending such a letter to his employer? This is true?

If true that does suck.

Intimidation and revenge.

Thats pretty sad to send it to his employer. What are trying to do, cost the guy his job because of some posts on the internet. What a messed up hobby this is.

I used to be a consignor with Goldin Auctions. I am not a big consignor, by any means, but this was the last straw.
I started having negative feelings about Ken after reading the shill list from Mastro and when this thread and the Goldin intimidation started that reinforced my feelings.
I considered Ken to be an ally in the fight against forgers. Someone who actually still had influence with the bay.
However, this has gone too far.
Bye Ken.
I am sure you will not be heartbroken over this but maybe this will make others here think about it too. I have already seen posts with similar misgivings.

Gee do you think Greg who posted the cover email with certain names blacked out might know whose names were there?

David I know you recently changed your mind on the issues that have been raised but you obviously don't know me well if you actually think I would be so careless to make a post without fact checking especially when it pertains to a hobbyist who is handing out C and D letters.

It is true. Goldin simply wants to run his auctions and not have anyone question anything he is selling or how he does business or runs GUU. And really in 2012 he went out of his way to let us know we can trust him, completely. http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=155017. Of course those posts were made after he had apparently been shill bidding in Mastro Auctions, according to government's list.

Anyway, here are just two of the many comments he made providing us assurance that all questionable business is in his past. In the second comment though he states he started out in the hobby when he was 11. This article however says he was 12.

My position hasn't changed since 2012



Everybody has to decide for themselves where to draw the line but I know where mine is. Take a stand.
