If it comes to that maybe we can get you a discounted rate with Mastro to consign your cards to? I am sure you could live for at least a few days on the proceeds. Otherwise, I know some restaurants you could buy cheaply? Seriously, if Mastro, or any auction house, is caught doing anything illegal they should be punished. End of story. Mastro, or any auction house, should also be innocent until proven guilty. You and a lot of the board prefer them to be guilty until proven innocent. You say you think they are greedy. I would argue it's the nature of "for profit" business and capitalism to be greedy. I like how they are so greedy they are charging to their live auction and donating the proceeds to charity. Personally, I think this reprinted old article was Okeefe printing something else to sell more books. Maybe in another year he will dole out some more hearsay and start all over again? Maybe it won't take that long?
