Good morning he's been banned from our show in Fort Lauderdale. We actually had a process server, trying to serve him with paperwork at our show, he wasn't there because he allegedly sold a counterfeit card to a guy who decided to sue have you can always check public records in Broward county Florida
He owns BMG company and essentially grabs common cards of players that are popular and slabs them
Unfortunately, there are collectors that are not educated with grading cards and assume any gem mint 10 slabbed card is valuable so there's always a market for it. I'm assuming that the merchant man company doesn't care what their customers sell in my opinion, but then again, it's not like the hobby has regulations
I always believe karma will catch up to people like this
Back in the day he sold me an OPG rookie Wayne, Gretzky, and I graded it a year or so later, and it turned out to be counterfeit. He promised me a refund, but I never saw it. I always gave him the benefit of doubt on the card because I had no reason to believe that he would knowingly sell a counterfeit card like that, because not many people know the nuances with that card and at least I didn't at the time the fact you never refunded me and there are people looking for refunds who have had to sue him is a red flag
I believe he does live at that address with his girlfriend hope and unfortunately process servers are being frustrated by her saying he doesn't live there, which makes serving him a little difficult
