    What happened to Theo Holstein?

    in Golden Age Comic Books

    Posted

    Just info, Theo and David Copperfield have the two best co-op collections in the world for rarest of the rare machines. David's collection is bigger and probably better but each has machines the other wants and have been friendly over the years.

    Both have been collectors for a very long time. Theo started over 30 years ago when co-op was cheap. Both have probably made millions by beating the crowd, getting them cheap. Still they have been known to drop 100K up at heartbeat for a good piece. It is a different kind of world, and different breed of collector. I have been luckly to visit a number of collectors houses with theo, and have seen some great pieces over the years. I do not collect nor own any currently. If David offers two, then it is worth 5 million, if theo offers 3 then its worth 7-10, these guys are the two sharpest guys in the biz.

     

    If you want to know the truth, here it is. Theo holstein is only after that fortune teller so he can use to make fakes and sell them, excuse me, attempt to sell them for a ridiculous amount of money. He has made many fakes before, not just arcade fakes but paintings too. Most of good old theo's "collection" is fake. He is not a sharp buyer by any means. He is a con artist of the worst kind. Beware of him because he is known to rip people off at the slightest chance.
