Mastro/Legendary Article in Today's NY Daily News

Joann,

I hear where you are coming from, but remember - if you take something and don't pay for it, that's stealing. It's illegal. Mastro may have enabled it, but the people who did it, still did it. It was Forman who took items without paying, and has caused great grief and stress to the people who need the money the most - the "small time" collectors. It is stealing. You can say what you want about the possibility of shill bidding, but if Forman never paid and took the cards anyway, then it's irrelevant.

Anyone who sides with Forman on this matter, I think, I wouldn't have a lot of interest in buying cards from them on the B/S/T board - cause who really knows if I'd get my side of the deal?

also dont forget that dave formans brother ..steve is a dealer....he is around philly buying all the time. does he submit cards to sgc? does he sell cards for dave? i could go on, way way to many questions here. he may be not guilty, (dave) but way to many questions where there shouldnt be!

I might be the only one here, but I'm most intrigued by the comic book debacle. How do you "LOSE" a collectible worth a couple hundred grand?

Doesn't pass the smell test.

Plus was it a raw Action Comics No. 1 or a CGC9.6 Marvel Key such as Amazing Fantasy No. 15, FF No. 1 or Spiderman No. 1?

In others words a raw Golden Age Key or a very High Grade (Graded) Silver Age Key?

I would just like to know what the comic book was - not too many are worth several hundred grand.

For that matter it could even be a graded Golden Age Key - a few of those in high enough grade would fetch those bucks.
