OK, time for me to chime in on things, not that it matters....
I don't know Mr. Mastro, probably never will. If he broke the law, that is a decision he made personally and he should suffer the consequences.
Is it sad to me that he is selling his collection. No. Collections are always being sold , that is how we, as collectors acquire new items. It is an ever evolving circle. It is life, when we have wealth and health, we buy things. When we don't have those things, we sell.
To me the only times it is sad is a) selling because you are preparing your estate as your time is coming. or b) some greedy bitch is taking her half of something she doesn't care a damn thing about and just wants money!!
Now i don't understand why this thread has turned into hostility, i didn't read any posts that suggested attacks should be made and it turning personal. 1 of the two should just be the bigger man and not comment further, then the problem is solved. Or keep poking each other if you are enjoying it!
But its not making for good reading.
