Leland Giants Postcard- Hake Auction

[benchod]

Uh Dan, It was a facetious remark
i.e. I wasn't trying to imply that Hakes purposely was trying to keep the price down

For the record, neither of the two bidders I knew of wound up winning it. So there were at least 3 serious bidders. Unless Doug Allen consigned/won it, of course.

Ryan, you should be careful making such a satirical accusation -- after all, you could be sued for libel. Of course, truth is a defense which means you couldn't lose.

Edited to add so as not to run afoul of the new trade organization. Fancy stationary scares me.

Jeff,

You must be on to something. I think Walter Tomala has called me like 37 times since I made that post.

Yeah, all between 2:00 and 2:43 a.m.

Did he call your brother a retard too?

You really have to search wide and far to find a pencil-necked comptroller who is willing to go the extra yard when it comes to debt collection. I mean, who would have thought that Bill Mastro would have a comptroller who uses threats and abusive language in an attempt to get what he wants? I'm sure the orphans aren't spoken to like that.

Your subtlety was too subtle for me....add in the recent shenanigans surrounding many auction houses today and it caused my knee to jerk. Hake's is one of the good guys.

Next time use smiley's.
