Garry King is well liked by some but I see a big problem with some of the items I see on his site. I'm not referring to Kenny Baker and other small bits but rather the large $$ music items.
Dealers in the UK might not be aware of current music item that they offer for sale. In another thread several autographs from Autografica were deemed fake. The items were Clint Eastwood, Charlton Heston and Harrison Ford.
He might not know there is a problem.

I had almost forgotten about this. lol. I guess Jason was mistaken on this, although that is not his fault, he is an innocent pawn in AFTAL's game. In my eyes, the damage is already done. It doesnt matter if they make a statement or not, or if they come clean to every shady thing that has gone on during this whole episode, I will no longer support them in any way. Once someone shows deceit as a dealer or organization they are done and collectors will never forget.
Jason, sometimes some forget to remember "not to shoot the messenger".
Thanks for trying to play a role and keep everyone updated. You have reaffirmed the comment essence I posted on same that was erroeneously removed.
If there are drafts and statements to be signed then it comes out when it comes out.
I thought you were meant to be working Jason ? I am still currently an AFTAL member until my membership expires and I have raised my head above the parapet too on this forum in defence of actions brought on by AFTAL's inaction. Whatever is taking place behind closed doors is not being transmitted to the membership but then AFTAL's Board does tend to hide behind a cloak of secrecy on most things. I really do think there are far more important things in life other than being pre-occupied with waiting for Godot so whilst AFTAL and Mitt Romney would appear to have something in common why don't we all relax and listen to Simon and Garfunkel's Sound of Silence ?
There are many reputable AFTAL dealers. Blaming them all for this would be like blaming everyone in Iran for Ahmadinejad's behavior.
Steve as far as I'm concerned I think you can quite comfortably distance at least 95% of all AFTAL Dealers from the way the whole thing has been handled by the Board. Only a small percentage will even be aware of the problem because I can testify that I have heard absolutely nothing from them since the now famous statement. It certainly doesn't mean that all those Dealers will be proud of how their non elected Board are conducting themselves.
Ken,
I don't know 95% of AFTAL dealers, but based on those I do know, I would wager that you're right.
those stupid Yanks - we gave you the English Language and now you go and abuse it lol
and that was said ' tongue in cheek ' - not ( toungue in cheek!!!!)
I am a firm believer of colloquial English. Although English in this country hardly resembles it's beginnings. BTW, Grant lives in australlia mate but I do believe the british contributed there as well but I'm not sure that the title "yanks" fits.
.
It was Grant who referred to ' those stupid Yanks ' so I presumed he meant that was how AFTAL viewed them ? We not only contributed to Australia - we sent them all our convicts and it would appear some of our Welsh brethren have even gone on to become Prime Minister. Can't understand why she changed her name from Sheila to Julia - must be because 95% of all Aussie women are called Sheila and she wanted to stand out from the crowd ? All of this International education makes a welcome change from the subject matter of the original thread - which has now been going that long it has an approved seal from King Charles on it.
