Stamp out auctions
Way too many auctions and it's killing the hobby. Conversation about baseball and collecting dosen't exsit at shows - less and less dealers and many more auction houses set up and fill the convention - i'm asked more and more if my stuff is for sale or is it an auction --- promoters are taking advanatge of this by using it as an autograph show and overcharging to get a baseball signed - this once was used to encourge fathers and sons to come out and experince the fun of collecting and create a good time while bonding with their kids. Now they pay $200.00 for a Cliff Lee item signed and pay admission to get in.

BTW... Didn't Dorskind predict that there would be only several auction houses still in business by this time? |
