And I will repeat this; I had someone here relay a message of concern to Huggins & Scott about the Babe Ruth Signed Ticket auction a week before I posted this.

I was hoping that Huggins & Scott would have taken it down and at the least, had it re-examined.

We'll just have to see how this all plays out.

they did have it re-examined by spence and he said it was good, why would they take it down because you said so with no explanation just "i said so"

it might be bad, it might be good, but you just keep the info to yourself, that's ridiculous. why post it in the first place? just to be coy? no one cares anymore if everything is james bond ejector seat theatrics.

when we show boxing, we can explain and will explain each psa or jsa screwup to anyones satisfaction. why, how and in detail just what is wrong with the signature, why can't you do that? do you know ruth, if so, share!!

Chris, what you do is fantastic and appreciated. But we are all hungry for as much information we can get. To me the Ruth sig looks good, but if you say no, then I believe you. But tell us why if you can, or at least as much as you can.

I haven't seen them come here and post something and ask people what they think. In that way what he does is different. And I don't care whether he shares what he knows or thinks he knows, that's up to him. Just pointing out the difference in response to your post.

What I find really amazing is how so many of you are upset with Chris. He says its bad and you go after him like he committed a crime. If you think he is correct good if you dont good. There is not one person on this site that does not know how Chris goes about his work. Enough all ready.

Shelly,

I have actually been very civil with Chris. Even several page back when he said "JSA did not cert this Ruth" and I politely displayed the screenshot showing they did.
The issue isn't Chris the person, but rather the condescending tone he takes anytime he responds. He doesn't know me, so calling me clueless is uncalled for.

Alicia Silverstone and Brittany Murphy are "Clueless" not I.

Chris tells us that the Babe Ruth ticket is a forgery. He is disappointed in JSA and Huggins. Should they pull the item just bc he says they should? I wouldn't. He says he has relayed all information to Huggins. They do the right thing and come on here and tell us in a fairly detailed manner why they believe Chris is wrong. If Chris really believes it is bad, he should post why. If there is general agreement here that Chris is right, I guarantee that Huggins will do the right thing. That is why it is important Shelly. To say "we'll that's how Chris does it" is fine, but it is not a reason for Huggins to pull the item. Up to this point they have done the right and stand up thing; it is Chris who has not.

+100.

Also, as long as you do your man-behind-the-curtain act, don't whine about snide comments. You are asking for them.

chris don't have to tell us, but he can pass what he knows onto huggins&scott and let them make the determination. he said a member here expressed concern a week before the auction started, so maybe we got a stalemate of differing opinions.

That's not what I wrote.

I wrote that I had a member here on Net54 relay a message to Huggins & Scott about my concern about the Babe Ruth Signed Ticket.

Each person who complains and begs for more information, is just feeding the drama - that is all this is about.

OK, I must've entered bizarro world today because I am reading a Travis post that is lucid, makes 100% sense, and I completely agree with it.
