VSA Auctions ended last night

The last link never worked. Anyways here is the email to show i did attempt to reach out.

I wanted to respond to the thinly veiled comments about Dave mediema and goldin aucfions posted by twin lakes
dave mediema comes to our office to authenticate
when he comes here, he has use of a light box, a black light, a research team, a computer, and the internet.
You. Need to ask him if when he goes to VSA or Others is he has that equipment, and therefore if the detail and accuracy is u to the same standards.
Unlike aucfion houses that say “no refunds, all sales final” Goldin Auctions will cancel a sale or accept a refund if it is proven he made an error in authentication for something we sold.

So keep the above in mind when comparing as it’s not apples to apples
thank you

Sorry, Phil, but I never got that email. I would have definitely answered if I had. The LOAs were compiled based on my information and analysis, printed with photos by Steve, and sent to me for review and signature before returning them, as is the case with most auction houses I do work for. If I'm wrong I'll admit it, but I am confident in what I signed off on here, as there were a number of items I didn't approve. Steve listened to my reasoning on the rejects, and did not pressure me to do an LOA on an item I wasn't comfortable with.

Dave,

Did you inspect the jersey's in person ?

I consider myself VERY knowledgeable on Seattle based teams game worn/used/issued equipment and i have never seen a legit 2001 size 44 Ichiro game used jersey. Even the ones authenticated by Ichiro/Coast to Coast/Mill Creek are 46 and 48. I have held plenty of legit Ichiros.

I just feel like people take your LOA as final word. Now we have a few items that people spent big money on that are not what they think they are. That to me is not right. I don't think you did it on purpose either just to make that clear. Your one of the good guys i know that. Maybe that is why it bothers me so much.

If you care i can list the jersey's and the issues wrong or i can send them privately to your email.

They were inspected in person. If you have a list, feel free to email it to me.
