Gotta Have It Auctions
 

Ran across this auction house and was wondering what the consensus was here / what were members' experiences?

Never bid there but here is some info:

I've heard of them of them before, and would guess the deal in genuine stuff.

Never heard of them either. Patrick good to see you pop up hope you're doing well.

Cheers,

John

I would not have any worries about them

Hi Patrick, they are legit, they have a shop in mid-town Manhattan, with some top notch items. They are rather expensive however. For the longest time, they have had a relationship with Mickey Mantles restaurant, and have many things on display there for sale. Good luck!

They've been around for a number of years. While I don't follow them closely and haven't dealt with them personally, by reputation I know they aren't some new fly by night auction house. Simeon Lipman used to work for them, and he's a respected sports memorabilia veteran-- used to work for Lelands and MastroNet and you see him on Antiques Roadshow.

Gotta Have It is Pete Seigel. Pete is big time and a class act all the way. He bought the Ruth bat for close to a million, among many other things. Also a nice guy, and if you're looking for restaurants in NYC, ask him first.
