Thanks for the question. While I don't feel I owe you or others an explanation of my vague statements, out of respect for the people involved, my respect for NET54 and it's members I'll try.
I don't really like doing business with companies I don't like or trust. I do believe what ML did before and after the facts are not right. Others have a different opinion. That's OK. I actually have stood up against big companies in my life never to do business with them again. I have fired GM (1983-2021-I really wanted that Corvette,
) over a car that blew up after 15K miles (I paid less for that car than I did the 3-baseball cards), Costco and American Express to name just a few.
Currently, I have paid ML over 5K in commissions for goods I do not have. I don't like that I have to go pick up the cards that I'm "hoping" are there. I hope Santa Claus comes down the chimney Dec 25th too. I had 2 choices. Not pay them like a big fat loser and damage my reputation or Pay them and move on. I conduct ALL my business with Integrity, which is why I believe I have this type of $$$ to piss away on baseball cards in the first place. I paid them immediately.
I would not have bid at all on this auction had I known there were still many "unidentified" cards stolen from it so they could continue to run their sham of an auction. I don't really give a sh** the reasons. IMHO, it was not right or just. That's how I live my life. You or others are free to make your own decisions. I've made mine and I will stick to it. I did not appreciate how they handled the cards going into or out of Shitsville. Memory Lane is just that after my pick-up TUESDAY...a BAD MEMORY. I hope that helps?
