Avoided is the right word. Not a chance you would approach me because things are a bit different in person and i would have told you to F off if you would have started in so you knew that and just kept to yourself.
Also note you are wrong about the question i posed to O'Keefe but what else is new. I asked why talk about a trimmed card and negative topic at a Net54 dinner. I totally understand he has to write about drama for the paper because that is what sells but why talk about it at a dinner and especially to folks that already know the story of the card. The point i was trying to make is that the National is about dads bringing their kids to a show and buying cards for their sets or collectors buying type cards, the show is not about a 3 million dollar trimmed card that garners way to much attention or some hobknob reporter that nobody cares about. The other point i was trying to make is several dealers lost their ass at the National and the constant talk about trimmed cards and negative topics did not help. Alot of those dealers are going to skip next year so great work keep up the negative chatter and soon their will be no National.
All of us on the inside know O'Keefe was physically removed by Bill Mastro from his office so he has a Napoloeon complex and has fixated himself on one card and one company. Also anyone who does not give him info he attacks and all you have to do is take one look at the guy and you know what he is all about.
