Sure Reid, but what would you like to know? Do you mean in the game used area, or sports memorabilia in general?

Scott,

I thought it might be nice for people to know whom you've worked with in the past. I know you've handled a lot of large collections and have offered some great game used items over the years (I've acquired several of them and I know there are other forum members who have, as well).

With this all said, please see the post by Chris Cavalier, and please respond within the scope of the forum rules/policies, of course.

I will give you a quick bio, I don't want to bore too many people.

After graduating from Towson University in Maryland I starting doing the SCD telephone auctions for Jays Sports Connection, which was at the time in Towson MD, but has since moved. I did those from about early 1996 to late 1997.

I left there to work at the short lived National Sports Gallery in Washington DC. The National Sports Gallery was a museum that was really well done, but poorly promoted and it only lasted about 2-3 years. It was there that I met alot of key collectors and started selling items for them on Ebay. Ebay was still pretty small so i was able to develop a niche early. It all kind of snowballed from there into the operation that it is today.

The Lelands-Gaynor auction is a fun project as it is basically the same thing that I do on ebay, but takes place on lelands.com and the quality of the material is consistently better.

As far as who I have worked with in the past, besides the Sports Gallery and Jays, pretty much every auction house of note on some level. I have been lucky enough to keep on good terms with most auction houses and many big dealers, which since I pretty much rely on word of mouth and auction house referrals for consignments, has been huge for me.

Thanks for asking.

Scott
