Default I have not a clue about

Mr. Garo's ability to authenticate items. However; he has been active in the hobby for three decades and has had many big names at his shows when he promoted shows back in the day. Plus; as GS Gallery; he was a big time dealer.

So at least he has old-time experience.

Regards
Rich

Mr Jaffe:
Who is "Marion"? If you meant Marino, Mr Garo was just getting started full time when Operation Bullpen went down. He had nothing to do with the Marino's or any of their dealer outlets and was never questioned by law enforcement. To say otherwise is a bald face lie. Has he made errors? Absolutely but so has anyone else. What is worse? A few errors or deliberately being involved in a criminal organization ripping off people knowingly selling forgeries like you so greedily did.

As for that pathetic, second rate HBO show you're always touting as the Rosetta Stone of authentication, you were so proud of it you used a phony name and hid your identity. A real test would've been to have everyone check the same items, not different ones. Who got the easy ones? Who got the hard ones? I'm sure it was just a coincidence your bosom buddy and chief defender was the "co-winner".

Mr Boblitt

From having spoken to Mr Garo re the major auction houses, his items have been in all of them only under a different authenticator's name. You'll have to ask the auction houses but I'll toss this out to chew on. Demorats and Republicans fight each other tooth and nail. But when it comes to a third party threatening them, they suddenly unite to fight it. I hardly think the biggest names in authentication or card grading want competition.

Default "bluebirds" aka Martin.....banned

I have received information leading me to believe that this "Martin" person is a shill and is a troll. So, with our new registration system I checked everything out. Fake phone number on registration. "Martin" is now banned. Thanks to the anonymous tip I received.....

ps...I don't count this as a banning of a known person since we have no idea who this is.....

He was giving obscure Buffalo Springfield and Fleetwood Mac songs a bad name.
