Would you consign memorabilia to Memory Lane

If you lay down with dogs, don't be surprised to wake up with fleas.

Greg, until you can prove to me that JP is rotten, I'm gong to have to continue to trust the man. All of my experiences with him have been good. He's a true gentleman. A gentleman and a scholar, in fact. And you really need to be a bit more positive about the hobby. This kind of negative stuff makes my belly ache.

Jeff,

I'm sorry. You are right. No more negative posts from me for the rest of the night. It is really inconsiderate of me to bring up the negative aspects of the hobby when really the events are so immaterial and so few people are involved in them. I will try to lighten up...

Well at least you can still attend JP's party at the National. Careful you don't trip over one of those suitcases or duffle bags he may have laying around. He is so lazy that he normally has other people carry them around for him.

Can we at least start calling him Cohen? This JP thing is freaking me out....

Now that he is successful I wonder if he made restitution to his victims. That would be a good indication that he was rehabilitated.

It appears as though the quality of consigned goods to Memory Lane has decreased over the last few years... Is the news taking this long to filter through the hobby?

I just recently signed up for their auction....any recent bad or good experiences to tell?

What a great country!

Greg and Jeff - thanks for ruining the hobby.

If you wanted more representative data on this poll, you should have posed the question a bit differently. For instance, only ask those who have or are planning to use an auction/consignment service if they would consider using this specific one. I bet several of your "no's" are those who have never or will never consign anything. Sort of like asking "would you try a new type of cigarette?" without pointing out you are only asking those that smoke. Just a thought...

No the question is specific to this auction house as they are the ones that contacted me wanting me to consign to them. Problem is when 90% of the people say stay away thats enough for me. I had no idea about what was or had went on in the past. What a shame.

A real shame is many people will never donate to any charity because of exactly what happened, they think it is a scam. People need help now more than ever but you really don't know where your money would be going. This just tells me that Bernie Madoff will be free in about 2 years and probably be selling baseball cards.
