I do agree with Dave Schrader. I always feel comfortable in his auctions.

Al C. (LOTG) is as good as they come.

This exercise doesn't give me a warm feeling. It's not that I disagree with who's listed here -- I think I've managed to bid in all of them at some point -- but if you had done the same thing in 2008, Mastro/Legendary would've been near the top of the list. In other words, who knows who's up to what?

I see only one (1) person mentioned Goodwin. That might be curious. Anyone want to guess why they don't get mentions?

Another thing - the BST on this board isn't auctions, but there is some obscene price gouging there by a few enterprising types. Are they fellow hobbyists? "Good guys"? Or predatory types who are taking advantage of a free board?

There is a auction section on the BST section and yes several predatory types, some with prices that make Dean's look like a bargain bin at WalMart but just like on eBay those types can be easily avoided.

Stone Cold used to have a slogan:

that said I trust about 3 people off of this site and 2 of them know who they are.

Sure, we can avoid anyone and anything. Just like most of us now completely avoid eBay, which used to be the single best place to acquire cards. The fixed price format is a disaster for collectibles if you 'sell' stuff at ridiculous prices.

What I see on the BST now are too many wannabe dealers who are using this forum are their free marketplace. It didn't used to be like that.

Buy, Sell, Trade

Yup, why would anyone wannabe there to sell a card???

Absolutely,

But I tend to treat people with respect and kindness Irregardless (I know but I'm making it a word).

You never know when that person my come into something you do want and...

It would be great if some of the houses actually stood by their recognition.

There are definitely a couple I see mentioned in this list that are undeserving because they condone it. It would be great if the hammer came down and got rid of these houses or shed some light to dry up their consignments.

Joe's Vintage is a very good choice. Many dealings with them. No problems at all.

+1. Have always had good dealings with Memory Lane and Clean Sweep too

Kevin Savage....in my book is one of the best in this hobby. I have acquired cards from Kevin since 1981 (directly,
or thru his auctions).

His integrity and his interpersonal dealings with his customers is tremendous.
