anthonyi remember reading about someone having their award stolen at a party once and it said that it is almost impossible to sell because of the rules set by the academy. my understanding was that "only" the owner or "academy" could sell their award. and if one is up for sale, the academy will always consider buying back. i think that they were contacted by mastro to verify the authenticity of the award. in this case i dont think mastro did anything wrong.
