Ah that quote of mine might seem as though it came out of nowhere, I meant to post to the list but only replied to Helmut..here it is in it’s entirety..
“Well said! A healthy business is not all about money. I don’t resent rising prices, in fact I would say in lots of cases on the posters themselves, prices have fallen. My point being if, one place is seen to be the only place to be, then that’s bad and when they know it, it’s even worse. I’ve noticed in the past some private dealers getting nice items on their sites and I’m damn sure they haven't been able to sell them at the price they want so they consign those items to Heritage..not good for small business.” Simon From: Helmut Hamm Sent: Friday, June 17, 2016 5:38 PM To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: Re: [MOPO] Heritage charges I’ve noticed in the past some private dealers getting nice items on their sites and I’m damn sure they haven't been able to sell them at the price they want so they consign those items to Heritage..not good for small business. Unfortunately, that seems to be true. Too many people just LOVE to buy from the biggest players in the market. Needless to say it's often the same people who fail to support their neighborhood shops who are the first to whine when yet another small business closes down. Nobody can compete with the money Heritage can throw around, but PLEASE do not whine when the day comes that all small dealers have gone out of business. If you have any doubt about the true nature of the modern-day 'corporation', this 2003 documentary is highly recommended: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMNZXV7jOG0 It's educating and quite entertaining as well.
