Do most collectors have insurance on their posters? I would think that would be easier said than done. Good luck to you Brek. Give 'em hell. JW

As I have said I hope others can learn from this. As I have been blasted before when I first got on MOPO about 7 years ago, I am hesitant to even post on MOPO. I was very close to leaving MOPO back then. After a few that seem to want to bring you down if you are up or down on MOPO who don't even know you has made me come close to leaving several times. I am very close to leaving the forum now based on the few, but the many great members keep me hanging on. But don't be surprised if there one less member soon. Most have no idea of others investments, but my loss totaled over 3 million and wiped me out. So I don't take kindly to those who makes them feel better to tear you down. It's not the critic that counts. The large law firm that has taken my case on contingency is very confident I will re-coop some of the loss. It will take about a year to find out.

Of course he wishes he had done so much differently, but now is not the time to tell him that. I can tell you that this has caused a fair number of consignors to send me large consignments. I have had some major consignors who had never planned to sell anything in their lifetime, but after a theft, or a fire, or a broken pipe, or a flood, changed their mind in a hurry and gave me some or all of their collection. And all told me later that there was a major sense of relief once they no longer had to worry every time they left their house that their collection would be there unharmed when they returned.
