T206musueum.com why?

Is it that people don’t care about being ripped off or being lied too or just don’t know any better?

I get it if you want to dig thru what is credible on the site and take the time to decipher fact from potential fiction on your own personal time I get it your choice.

But I wonder in the world of auction houses where scandal seems to raise its ugly head more often than not. Why on earth would you want to tie your legitimate business in any way to a site that has been proven to be nothing more than a front for illegal activity?

"ranked as the 9th scarcest T206 on the renowned T206 Museum listing"

They all seem to do it REA, Goodwin etc.

Trying to bring creditability to an auction listing by quoting or linking to site know for fraud just seems odd to me perhaps I’m alone on this. I would think I would want my business as far away from this guy as I could get.

Surely an auction house of any value has enough creditability to list a back ranking or detail that a back is tougher than others or ranked by collectors without linking to dirtbagscamville.com am I the only who finds this odd?

They even admit on the front page…of course after he got busted stealing 10's of thousands of dollars from people by the FBI.



Just curious how many of you use this site and consider it a value after knowing what it was all about if you will?

Cheers,

P.S. Not a shot at Goodwin or Joe T. both great guys and a class act auction house IMO. But hate to see anyone of value like these guys be associated with this clown Chan in anyway.
