Us Marshall cancel auction JJ Jr. items
 

Just to make it clear to Robert.
JJ jr. was arrestet and had all of his valuables taken by the Marshalls office. Some of those items where up for auction. I wanted to get them removed.
I got in touch with reporters and the Marshalls office in D.C. I contact Marshell Gonzales head of that division. I gave them background of the two authenticators and the seller. I also told him the Bruce Lee pieces where from Marino. I told him who I was and what I had done. I felt that made him trust my opinion. He took down the items from the auction house.
Give them credit where credit is due. They did the right thing.
Here is the qutoe from the reporter to me.
Well, you were right. The auction came down.

Very good work Shelly, and if more people were doing this type of thing the hobby would be a lot better off. Glad to see how much you can do.

If you see something do something, don't just ignore it.
Lots of us do something, some just sit on their butt and just go tsk,tsk.

Congrats
Good job Shelly!

Kudos to you for having the fortitude & conviction to do something very positive!

The usual great job, Shelly!!!

Congrats Shelly. I hate those guys giving the auction profession a black eye.

Not there fault. They are told by the U.S. Marshalls office to sell the item no questions asked. They wanted to take them down but need the Marshalls office ok. I guess they are one of the real auction houses the U.S. uses for getting rid of merchandise that has been seized.

I get it. What a terrible position to be in professionally.
