I miss your great auctions Barry. I remember when I would call you in extended time and ask you what I should bid on to win. I took your advice everytime and all turned out to be great investments. I never heard of Just So tobacco before you. Collectors are always seeking education on items they collect or want to collect. Turning to an auctioneer isnt always a bad thing even though they may be bias a little bit.

This is different though than actively discouraging a buyer from purchasing a consignment. The fact that Brent is so blase to mention it openly during an interview for Forbes Magazine is shocking.

Thanks JC. My auctions weren't large but I admit I did have interesting and historic material. I always focused on baseball history, and rarely had high grade cards. The hobby has changed a bit since then.

I recall that you had a nice Plank in 2004 or 2005. I bid, but didn't come close in the end.

That is doing your duty to the consignor. Telling someone not to bid is not.

If a buyer asks me specifics about a card, of course I can be honest about the card's qualities.

And yes Sean, I had a couple of Planks over the years and remember them well. I had an SGC 50 that set a price record that held up for many years. Today, it looks like an incredible bargain. Last edited by barrysloate; 05-04-2019 at 04:01 AM. |

Quick inner net search says
"*If*the retailer does not*collect sales tax, the purchaser has the obligation to pay use*tax*directly to the state where the property is used as long as the item is taxable. ..:" Awfully thin line there

I must say that I'm enjoying the bit of discussion between Barry and Scott.
It's always nice to get the views of someone who has or is actually in that business. Let me rephrase my thought on recommending against bidding. Lets say there's someone who is spending loads of money every auction, and buys stuff looking at quality and investment. And their question is something like "what do you think of card X? should I go for it?" Now lets say the card is a 9, but not a great 9 and the auctioneer knows that buyer won't ultimately be happy with it OR, a card that they feel may have peaked and should be available for less in a year or two... I think that saying either of those things is the only honest answer. Plus, while it may not serve the consigner best, someone who regularly spends a lot may over time generate far more for the auction house. Or, I could be entirely wrong. I'd love to hear the perspectives of people actually doing business at that sort of level. |

I think you have to be honest, that's the answer. And I know as an auctioneer I need to be careful.
If I told that hypothetical bidder he might not be happy with the card and he chooses not to bid, the card is still likely to sell for a retail price, and bidder, consignor, and auction house should all be happy (hopefully). But if I tell the bidder falsely thst he will love the card, and he gets and not only doesn't like it but wants to return it for a refund, I have a bit of a disaster on my hands. Then I might not be able to pay my consignor if the underbidder doesn't want it. So best thing is to tell the truth. It might cost the consignor one extra bid, but IMO that's the best way to resolve that problem. Last edited by barrysloate; 05-04-2019 at 02:52 PM. |

"No comment" is both a lack of an answer and an answer at the same time. Maybe that's the correct response.

What would happen if Oregon suddenly passed sales tax legislation?

"The asset?" Oh no is Brent-speak contagious?

Taxes being due and taxes being paid are two different things particularly where the state doesn't know what you bought, I would assume. Whereas if it's collected at the time of sale, there's no payment issue.

Just keeping with the spirit of the thread. I am curious if any tax professionals or CPAs know how if there is an amount of time something shipped to and kept in Oregon needs to stay there so that it wouldn't be legally taxable when transported out of the state.

If I buy a car in Oregon, register it there, and leave it there for 6 months I can then drive it to CA legally and not pay sales tax. Not sure about cards though.

Are you sure you wouldn't then owe use tax to CA?

21st Century Tulipmania
382 years ago I invested in tulips, but lost my shirt when they couldn’t be stored and then restored. Everyone knew they were altered.
My question then is: Will the PWCC Vault be able to store my tulip bulbs as well as my other assets? According to the tenets and definitions, I would think so. What goes around comes around, eh?

A trimmed asset that never leaves the vault, how stupid can people be? Very stupid apparently.

Not from personal experience but people with addresses in both states do this all the time. You can even buy a car in ca and transport it out of state to avoid the sales tax. But if they catch you driving it in CA during the next 6 months you can be charged back for the tax.
