Gary- I still consider you a hobby friend. My only beef is that of your 12 posts on the board, before this thread, 11 of them were ONLY to try to get your money back. You know I tried to help you do that too. You have been collecting for over 35 yrs (I believe), surely there is something you could contribute to the forum other than 1 post in the last 7 months? I see you reading it sometimes and have just had that thought. As for the banner, until ALL Mastro consignors are paid, and I am not sure that has been done, it is not an option...and most likely they won't advertise again anyway because of the stand I/we made. That is fine and it was the right thing to do, given the circumstances. I have been a bit frustrated lately about the board and when this thread got posted I took the opportunity, just as any member does, to give my view. Maybe I am wrong about it but it's the way I feel. I hope you have a happy, safe holidays and I look forward to chatting again at the next National...take care
