Has anyone gotten their LOVE OF THE GAME auction wins yet?

No email received yet--hopefully one tomorrow.

FWIW- There should be ZERO concerns with Al/LOTG. Top shelf all the way.

Thanks for the support guys, but yes, it's definitely been slower than I typically like. Things are definitely getting back up to speed, though, a large number of packages went out today (and I'm making more right now). Remind me not to schedule an auction the week before a show!

Bobby, to answer your question about the Edison show - it was slow, but it was a brand new show on a gorgeous weekend in June. I am hoping that Rich keeps it going, maybe moves it to the early spring or late fall. It's a really nice venue that isn't easy to find, so it's not like casual collectors will happen upon it and drop in. People need to know about it, and I think that's the kind of thing that happens over time. Also, they had lots of autograph guests, but only one baseball player - a AA player in the Yankees organization. I think some veteran Yankees and Mets might have brought more people out.

All that being said, anything that brings collectors together to talk face-to-face is fine by me.

My feelings as well. I got my email today, and am excited to receive my winnings. Always been happy with LOTG's great auctions and service.

This little hobby of ours is served by an array of felons and bigshot douchebags and the occasional good guy (hi Leon). Al is one of the latter. He's a one-man show, busting his rear to run a great auction. Be grateful for guys like Al (and Ryan C and Robert K and Lee B and Joe Y and Dave S to name some). You don't need to worry about him.

Super +1

I have only consigned twice, and once was through Al, simply because he is such a likable guy and clearly hardworking and honest. Looking forward to tossing a few back with him this year in Cleveland. You too, David - be there.

I won a lot at LOTG and it was my first auction win!! I noticed that he preferred payment by check or MO so I mailed off a check as soon as I got my invoice. Now, I haven't received my items yet but I know that checks take time to clear, so for me it is no big deal. I am excited to get my stuff and am looking forward to his next auction!
