What you mentioned in regards to wrongs done in the past by American Memorabilia are indeed in the past. If all of that happen before their first auction, that was nearly ten years ago(I have heard different verisons of your acusations, some with you on the receiveing end.)I am always cautious in sliging mud, I tend to get some on me! I have done business with them in recent years and I have been very satisfied. I was cautious in my decision to join their team. I can tell you this, If I say something will be done it will be done. I am putting my name and experience in the hobby as a partner with American Memorabilia.I feel if you look into any ones hobby past you will find some questionable decisions, me icluded. The difference is I have always gone out of my way to make things right, and that is what I will do at American Memorabilia. Just as you do with your successfull business.
They say that you can tell alot about a person by their enemies, If Victor has attracted you as an enemy it is a good sign. Your operation is one of the best in the business; And if you are at all concerned about American Memorabilia it is indeed a good sign.
In regards to pulling the auction, I have yet to hear anything that gives me difinative proof of a problem with the items. All I hear is lore,"this person saw that, and this person did that...
I will bring the proofs with me to the fort washington show, if any one wants to inspect them, and tell me the error of my ways I am open to that.
I am not above saying I am wrong and loosing revenue. Like David said it is a good sign if an auction house protects it's customers. I just need a factual reason and I have yet to hear it.
Warmest Regards,
Nick Martinez
