I'm pretty certain Peter is more in the mid-range grade in that department. Perhaps a VG++++. Like the description on the label it sounds awesome.

Hey Jeff - it's Fred Dunlap. Nice pick-up.

[BTW - in resonse to a few communications - I have to make it clear that this was a joke - the point was to show how easy it was to find a ballplayer that "resembles" almost any given photo.]

Thanks Mark!!!!!!

trustworthy?
 

I'm new to collecting, and am just wondering if you all consider it safe to bid with Legendary.

Thanks!

Hi - welcome to pre-war! What do you mean by "safe?" You will get what you win if you win something if that's your concern.

Yes, I do.

Thanks for the welcome and the quick replies! By "safe," I mean: are their descriptions/assessments correct? In terms of identifying the items correctly, and condition.

Some of the descriptions seem to lack the proper amount of detail (especially re: condition) that I might like for an internet auction.

If you have an issue with a description you can call them and ask for more details. I've done it many times and they have been very cooperative.

Thanks for letting me know, Barry. I will be sure to call them.

My experiences have all been positive since the split with Mastro as well. I understand the various criticisms, but also think that many on this Board have put them under a microscope, with far more scrutiny than any other auction house (except for maybe Coach's Corner).

But from my personal experience, everything has been exactly as described and shipped securely/promptly. Hope this helps...

No problems with Legendary other than their sending me a G/VG 1955 Bowman set instead of an EX/EXMT 1955 Bowman set (which I won) in the same auction. When I called them they apologized and took care of getting the right set to me.
