I saw that and cringed as well. Just disrespectful and sad. Treating those books like the trash can they are about to fall into.

Sure makes me feel confident in consigning anything to them…

According to the comment on the post, there are x2 Marvel Spotlight #5 and a Strange Tales #110 in this stack of "100+ awesome keys."

For those interested and on Instagram Heritage will be filming as they go through the stack and posting it to social media.

I’m ordinarily good at identifying comics from a very small area of a cover, but, in this case, the level of mistreatment and dealer BS on display here maybe saddened me too much to be bothered about playing the game. Many nice books.

The way all of their social media is presented is really cringy. There doesn't appear to be much self-awareness and it's extra "fellow kids" when you do it on teh 'gram.

This is ostensibly all other people's stuff that has been entrusted to a what's supposed to be a legitimate organization, and this guy is treating it all like a joke. No pretense of respect or privacy, and the lack of professionalism is eye opening. If it weren't for the whole showing it off thing then there'd be nothing to know to gripe about, but this guy made the decision to go public so it's fair game to call it out.

Wait, I'm not taking into account that they're only the tHiRd largest auction house in the world; not like a Christie's or something. Who am I kidding, Sotheby's surely keeps filled water bottles around their clients' paper emphemera.

🤦‍♂️
