Mantle auto in LOTG Auction; Lot 850

[Al C.risafulli]

Hi Brendan!

The lot in question has been pulled. Unfortunately we had several "Willie, Mickey & the Duke" baseballs in the office, and when I was putting this auction together, I mixed up the LOA from lot 381 with this one. As a result, this one wound up getting photographed and inserted into the auction. Apologies for the confusion, and thanks for pointing it out. I always prefer when things like this get addressed and resolved before they actually impact a customer!



Fuddjcal: I do not know who you are, nor do I understand why you would feel the need to attack me or my company personally - we've never done business together, we've never met in person, nor have we ever had any dealings whatsoever in any way, that I can recall. Please understand that I started LOTG specifically because I've been in the hobby for 30+ years and wanted to provide an alternative to the kind of unethical shenanigans we've become accustomed to in the hobby. Mistakes, however, will always happen, and while I can promise I'll always do my best to make them right, I would never promise I won't make them.

What I would never do, however, would be to publicly disparage a person I didn't know, or a business I had no experience with. Doing something like that would be irresponsible of me.

I've been operating Love of the Game for nearly eight years, and sold nearly 20,000 items in that time, including quite a few of the most interesting pieces of history you'll ever see. Perhaps instead of taking time to disparage me on a public message board, take a little time and review my auction and the items in it. Maybe you'll see something you like.
