<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2445637, member: 19463&quot;]The recently closed VAuction was a Triskles and was handled bu John Lavender.&nbsp; I was one of few winners who elected to pay by check rather than Paypal which led to a note from John saying that Barry had walked him through the process.&nbsp; I hope we all realize that removing a guy like Barry from any enterprise will not improve it.&nbsp; I trust John will make it work for future sales.&nbsp; As far as Barry and NGC goes, I hope his presence will turn it into the kind of business I could support but I once had extreme respect for David Vagi and that did not work out so well so all I can hope now is the hobby as I enjoy it will last long enough that I won&#039;t care what they do with it.&nbsp; NGC has several business practices that I can not support.&nbsp; I wish I could believe that adding what I consider one of the great people in the trade to their staff will help them move in the right direction.&nbsp; Keeping an open mind on this one will be a challenge.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, I thought WE were the dark side.&nbsp; If Barry is going to adopt that term, I guess we will have to be black holes.&nbsp; I&#039;ve been called worse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
