Irvin must be on another planet.. I NEVER SENT IRVIN GELB ANY
INVITATION FOR ANYTHING
IT IS A CONSTRUCT OF HIS OWN MIND
A TOTAL FABRICATION OF A SILLY LITTLE CHILD

Hi Bruce,
Nice to hear from you.
Yes, I did realize the prices that were published and they paid
me promptly for everything less a very reasonable/negotiated
commission. It was a pleasure to work with them.
As a matter of my standard business practice, I like to work with
different companies so that I don’t put all my eggs in one
basket. When I received Richard’s invitation to join his auction
site I saw it as a potential alternative to Ebay so I attempted
to contact him for more information.
That’s it – very simple.
I’ve purchased from you Bruce with excellent results and would,
of course, consider to work with you one day.
Best wishes,
Irv

I have no dog in this race, but I think I can easily address one
small part of this. I, and I am sure many others, have seen some
of the sky-high results at Profiles in History (last year and
others) and have wondered if all of those sales were consummated,
and if so, if it was at the listed prices.
Given that you were a known consignor of some of those pieces
that had reported sky-high results, can you confirm for us that
in all cases you received those amounts (less their commissions)?
And if so, I think the question on everyone's lips is, why would
you then consign anywhere else? And if not, I think the question
on everyone's lips is, why don't they set the record straight and
reveal what did sell, and at what prices?
I am sorry for all the ill feelings this topic has generated, but
I would love to know the answer to the above questions, and if
they are answered, some good will have come out of it.

Hi Richard,
When you invited us to join your new poster auction site you never
responded. I thought that you didn't receive my email but now
it's come to
my attention that you are jealous of my successful results with
Profiles in
History last year. I have more posters in my collection and just
wanted to
help you out by bringing some high end titles and see how we
could do
together. I was also going to refer other big collectors to you.
How odd
that you show such keen jealousy - I thought that your site's
intention was
to bring more sellers to help build up the business. Unfortunate and
perplexing that you're taking another position. I can't
understand why the
results of my Profiles auction would have anything to do with
selling more
posters on your site.
Best wishes,
Irv Gelb

Hi Irv
I did get your emails
right now, I'm not adding any sellers
Sean is one of my very best friends and he is always welcome to
sell..
other people who have supported me are also welcome.. but at this
point, I'd rather have the site for just a few people
one reality is that even if people sell a million bucks worth.. it
isn't worth alot to me based on % and so I prefer to not really have
competitors
but I have a question for you.. if Profiles did so well for you..
why
aren't they selling more of your stuff???

Thanks for the quick positive reply. But I don't understand.
Since you got great prices, why not just give them the rest of
your items? I fail to see the value of going anywhere else. What
am I missing?
