David SmithLet's see; a convicted con artist is running a sports card and memorabilia business and auction (an unregulated business). His latest auction does gang buster business, setting "record" after "record".
To me, this has shill written all over it. Why? To get great headlines and better consignments. That way, in a couple of years, JP can either sell the business for BIG bucks (the business will then fail unless the new owner also shills auctions) or JP will take the company public and again fleece an unknowing and unwary public.
If you can steal money from people in the guise of helping injured and dead policemen, firemen and children, I see no reason why trimming a card or shilling an auction is out of bounds.
