His site wasn't shut down, but his eBay account was. He still has plenty of autos for sale on his site, but anything with ace/AMA certs has been removed.

Yet if you click on "Store" and then "Autographs" you can see that he still has a lot for sale, most with JSA certs.

Piedmont Sport is listed on ACE's website as an authorized dealer, whatever that means. It would be hard to claim ignorance when a business alliance has been established. Don't people normally check out businesses when they go into an agreement with them to be an authorized dealer?

Well, since he took down the ones w ACE certs, one would argue that maybe he is genuinely upset/surprised. Of course, one could also argue that he palmed those off some place else.

Its not a good situation, and another black mark on the greatest hobby in the world. Really sad.

Ghost there are so many black marks now that you cannot enjoy this the same way that you used to.
I realize that even the art world has its major problems but it does seem that collecting sports items has attracted more vermin than all the other hobbies combined.

Big bucks + people desperate to get what they "need" = perfect environment for con men.
