Default Problem with John Ward Four Base Hits

Posted By: rmacpa

i am the consignor of the four base hits ward
to mile high. the fact that the card was restored
was disclosed to brian drent when the card was
consigned during september 2006.

below is brian's 9/28/06 e-mail to me concerning
the card:

"Roger,

You have brought up some very good points and I think that you are
right
the card may very well do better being offered without a holder but
fully disclosing the restoration in a manner where we underscore the
restoration (while disclosing it) but focus on the extreme scarcity of
the item instead. We are not open on Saturday so it would be better to
send the card out Monday for a Tuesday delivery. When I have received
the card I will email you to alert you of such and greatly look forward
to working with you on this great card.

Regards,

Brian Drent
President
Mile High Card Company

on december 23, 2006, i received a call from a long-time collector
and friend who told me he was able to access the upcoming mile high
auction (which wasn't scheduled to be online/live for a few days)
by clicking on the category view link on their website. i followed
his instructions and was so dissatisfied by what i saw, i immediately
sent mile high an e-mail demanding the return of ALL of my
consignments and threatened litigation if this was not done.
mile high did not, and to this day has not, responded to any of the concerns
i had raised in that e-mail.

on december 27, 2006, i retained a respected colorado law firm
to represent me in this matter and am currently in the process
of exploring options.

for the record, in regard to brian drent's contention that he has sent
me several recent e-mails that i have not responded to, i have not received
even so much as one e-mail concerning the four base hits ward nor any
of my other consignments from brian drent or anyone else at mile high
since october 17, 2006.

i have forwarded all relevant correspondence (including mr. drent's
false assertions) to my legal representatives who had asked me to refrain
from making any public statements relating to this matter. but i refuse
to sit idly by while my character is defamed by mile high.

as much as i would like to comment further, i dont believe it would
be prudent to do so at this time.
