Peter,

I agree. There is too much anonymity with auction houses. However, I don't think it is fair to assume that just because the opportunity to be dishonest exists that the person in question is taking advantage of it.

I will stipulate to the fact that it would be possible for a person to be deceptive and maintain ownwership and dealer status simultaeously.

My point is that I do not believe the owner of SGC is doing that. I also think if someone is going to make such a claim that they should provide some evidence other than a link to a 4 year old beef.

That is not a slam against Tom but rather a general statment.
