Goldin income verification

[ValKehl]

Not that I ever would, but if I were to consign a very valuable card or cards to Goldin, I'd first require Goldin to provide me with a copy of their insurance policy.

I've had consignors ask to see my policy.

Totally understandable. You don't hand over the Carl Fryslinger collection without doing due diligence.

Not sure if you're being snarky but Carl was a personal friend who approached me when he got his terminal diagnosis. He was well-known to our original live auction crowd, so I wanted them to know which items were his. Plus due to the donation in his name that we are making to the PA Food Bank we needed to set those items apart in the titles. His is not one of the larger consignments we have taken on, but regardless of the value of a collection to the rest of the world it means the world to the consignor and I try to be understanding.

Especially if they seem likely to ship, in willy-nilly fashion, the card(s) to a Best Western Plus.

I guarantee they wouldn't be personally offended by the request. :cry:

Can I ask for their bank statements too? Will Ken send me information about his home value?

Proof that consignor funds are held in escrow would I think be more relevant and equivalent.

You can ask for whatever you want. They may decline, as you have the right to do. But they won't be personally offended.

You might be surprised. Some people get their dander up pretty quick.

Give it a rest Ohio, if you want to pass out your financial information to some AH so you can spend $10,100 like a two bit whore on quarter night that's up to you but don't denigrate many collectors here who don't buy into that, I'd ask you to have a little respect but clearly you're lacking in that dept.

Sometimes we find ourselves in these playground shitshow threads but this is a collectors sub which I'm way more interested in.
That being said, I'd be interested in you posting your favorite top 5 cards in your collection. I'd rather see what you're interested in as a collector and form an opinion of you based on that.

Not a dick measuring contest but there are a whole bunch of old school well endowed collectors who choose not to weigh in on dumb threads like this that defend some "hey, it's just a rule to protect corporate profits" so get in line and put on you grey jumpsuit.

No thanks Brother.

I'd rather know you by your collection than your insults.
