Please disregard realclient's statements against me claiming I'm a scammer as they are completely untrue. There is a known cyber bully and stalker in the online community who defames and harasses people. I have a great working relationship with Heritage Auctions and Todd Imhoff, the Executive Vice President. This online stalker realclient has made the same false statements against everyone who filed a ROR complaint against Heritage. He is clearly a cyber bully who's sole purpose is to make false claims against innocent people he does not know and never met.
Gary S, the victim of realclient's false defamatory and libelous remarks

Notice that Gary (the original author) projects his own flaws onto me. In my below posts, I have offered overwhelming evidence that Gary is a liar, fraud, fake, criminal, and lunatic. Gary has not specifically denied my claims; silence in the face of an accusation is evidence of guilt. Gary lamely attempts to shift attention from his own wrongdoing by posting a silly blanket disclaimer about me, for which he offers no evidence of any kind. Anyone with an IQ above 70 can determine that, via the evidence presented on this page and others on this website, Gary has no credibility whatsoever. Gary belongs in the psychiatric ward of a state prison, not on the pages of Ripoff Report's website.

To follow is absolute proof that the original author, Gary (aka many aliases), is a lying, mentally ill, insecure, projecting criminal. Scroll down through Gary's sub-literate posts on this page to Heritage's update: "UPDATE Employee: This Former Customer is Under FBI Investigation for Fraud". Therein, you will find Gary's full name, city, and state. Via Googling, you can then find the Collectors Universe forum in which several consumers note that they have caught Gary perpetrating criminal fraud against Heritage, Ebay buyers, and others via schemes involving stolen photographs, false identities, and other deceptions.
I have a screenshot of said consumer comments, just in case they get deleted. Gary libeled Heritage on Ripoff Report's website and elsewhere because Heritage did not instantly pay him for his consignment of nearly worthless junk. Gary falsely assumed that because HE is a profoundly disturbed criminal, Heritage employees are as well and had every intention of cheating him out of his measly consignment. All auction companies take several weeks or even months before settling with clients. Gary is a silly wacko who belongs in the psychiatric ward of his state prison, not on the pages of Ripoff Report's website. Notice that Gary has not denied my claims; silence in the face of an accusation is evidence of guilt.

Just to clear things up, Gary is the original author of this report. He does not even know what my name is, yet libels me with fabricated nonsense in retaliation for the factual bad publicity that I have given him. His ridiculous claim that I defrauded Heritage screams volumes about his mental illness. If that lie was true, why would I be defending them against his defamation? Unfortunately for Gary, we do know what his real name is. Read my below posts to learn it, then Google it and his address. My contentions about his criminal actions will then be definitively proven. Gary is a profoundly disturbed criminal who belongs in the psychiatric ward of a state prison. On this page alone, Gary has used eight different aliases, a symptom of his psychopathy. Please read my below posts to learn why none of Gary's complaints about Heritage Auctions on this and other websites have any credibility.

In his latest petty retort, Gary does not deny any of the negative claims made against him. That is because they are completely true! He merely wants to get in the last word, a symptom of his mental illness. As definitively proven by my below comments, and subliminally by his, Gary (aka multiple aliases) is a liar, thief, fake, fraud, and nutcase. He is responsible for many, if not most, of the few negative reviews about Heritage Auctions posted on this and other websites.

Gary is an obsessed lunatic who is compelled to always have the final comment. Whenever he did not respond under his "original author" account, he did so under an alias (e.g., Cst1 and Customer1.) Note that all of the comments which defend his position have identical grammatical mistakes and raise the same bogus issues. In my below posts, I offer additional proof that Gary is a liar, fake, fraud, felon, and nutcase.

Once again, Gary's most recent post does not deny any of my claims about his wrongdoing. He merely regressed into his youth for a schoolyard taunt. On this page alone, Gary used the following aliases: RealCleintIsStupid, pppp, Cst1, jsome, Customer1, and Jon123. In every bogus post, he inexplicably defends the obviously corrupt original author (himself), makes identical grammatical errors, and makes the same faux points - facts which prove that he wrote all of the referenced comments. My friends and I have each spent millions with Heritage Auctions. We feel loyalty to them and do not want a crazy, lying thug like Gary to tarnish their good image with his libelous babble. My friends have literally been laughing out loud at my responses to Gary's dimwitted and self-incriminating retorts. The Ripoff Report is unintentionally entertaining us. Your fabulous scam-exposing website is what the First Amendment is truly about!

Like clockwork, the sociopathic, sub literate, deeply disturbed Gary has quickly replied, this time with yet another frivolous fabrication. He falsely states that I was banned from Collectors Universe, even though I have never even been a member! Also, he does not even know what my name is. Unfortunately for Gary, we do know what his real name is (you may find it in the Heritage letter to the FBI, which is posted on one of his Ripoff Report pages about Heritage.) A Google search of his real name, city, and state will reveal proof that all of my claims about his crimes and other wrongdoing are accurate. Gary is an obsessed criminal wacko who must have the last word, even when he has already lost an argument which he started. Note that Gary has NOT denied any of the claims that I have made against him. That is because he cannot, as I have PROVEN them in my previous posts. Kindly refer to them for verification. I suggest that you scrutinize all of my posts about this sicko. You will wonder why Gary kept attempting to do business with Heritage via multiple aliases - at the same time he was libeling them on this and other websites! My posts contain definitive evidence that Gary is a liar, libeler, nutcase, and thief.

With each additional post, Gary continues to definitively evidence that he is profoundly disturbed. His extreme insecurity (a symptom of his sickness) is so severe that he reacts angrily, quickly, and obsessively to the slightest valid criticism. He projects his own flaws onto anyone who exposes him. Google his name and town as they are listed on the Heritage letter to the FBI, then read the posts about him on Collectors Universe's message boards. You will discover that Gary has a habit of defrauding people and creating aliases. The aforementioned facts suggest that Gary's nearly-illiterate complaints about Heritage have absolutely no credibility nor basis in fact. Of course, anyone with an IQ above 70 has already determined that. I hope that Gary will receive the psychiatric help that he so obviously requires.

If Heritage is so terrible, why did the obviously unstable Gary S**** manufacture faux accounts in order to continue to deal with them? Apparently, said unbalanced person labels a business as dishonest merely because they do not drop everything to immediately service his exceedingly minuscule transactions to his precise, frivolous, unreasonable expectations.
My friends and I have literally transacted hundreds of millions of dollars in business with Heritage over the years, yet have NEVER experienced a problem, other than days-long delays, which ALL successful auctioneers unintentionally cause. It is ironic that Mr. S**** sanctimoniously accuses me of having "an IQ below 70". His substandard logic and grammar belie his implication of intellectual superiority. I reiterate, nobody with an IQ above 70 would take seriously the obvious suspect charges made against Heritage.

The only "ripoff" is being perpetrated by this thug customer ("Gary" from "Silver Spring") who is enraged that he could not extort money from a legitimate, honorable, hardworking company. Yes, in my experience Heritage's executives are sometimes arrogant and pompous, but so are all other corporate executives. That does not make them felonious or even unethical. I am officially jumping on the bandwagon with those who defend what America is truly about: An honest, successful, rags-to-riches company!
The five unique complaints about Heritage that were posted on this website were written by nearly-illiterate, bottom-of-the-socioeconomic-ladder crybabies who seem to think that Heritage is in business to royally cater to their every uninformed whim, fallacy, and misconception. I do not believe that a gargantuan auction firm like Heritage would risk damaging their stellar reputation just to cheat these small-time losers out of their virtually worthless junk.
I suspect that what is really going on is that five obsessed wackos who have failed miserably at life (versus the satisfied 700,000-plus Heritage customers) did not get their backsides kissed during their minuscule transactions with Heritage, so they are unfairly trashing this outstanding company just to fuel the emotional void created by their failed extortion schemes. Several wealthy friends and I are longtime customers of Heritage, yet have never experienced any difficulties. Nobody with an IQ above 70 would take seriously the obviously suspect charges made against Heritage, a firm with an unblemished reputation amongst both heavy hitters and small spenders alike.

Todd Imhof said he was going to return 5 coins worth $14000. I just found out today at Heritage has no intention of sending me the coins back or paying me $3600 for consigned coins sold on Nov 8, 2011. Beware of doing business with Heritage. They might just keep your consigned coins or sell them and not pay you. Heritage has reneged on their promise to return the coins. Heritage is attempting to defraud me out of about $18000. So think twice about consigning your valuables to Heritage. Heritage has also been accused of violating the RICO act in the past. Just do a google search to see the that they've been accused of having a fake computer bidder bid coin prices up.

Via Federal Express and email to: ##########
Gary Schofer
(((REDACTED)))
Silver Spring, MD (((REDACTED)))
Dear Mr. Schofer:
I am the General Counsel for Heritage Auctions.
PLEASE TAKE DUE NOTICE:
Heritage is aware that you have systematically attempted to defraud Heritage since at least January of this year through your creation of bogus customer accounts using multiple ISPs. You have used these accounts to place internet bids in our auctions and on several occasions, using these accounts, you placed winning bids that were later dishonored. Heritage has been damaged by your actions. Heritage has expended countless hours investigating your activities and preventing the further placement of bids sourced to you under false names.
In October of this year, with the approval of the United States Attorneys office, the FBI opened a formal investigation into your activities which continues to this day.
Additionally, we are aware of your attempted defamation of Heritages good name and that you have issued complaints to some of Heritage's customers, the Better Business Bureau, the Professional Numismatists Guild and to other agencies and consumer protection reporting services. In cooperation with the FBI and at their request, we have refrained from responding to your allegations until now.
We received approval this week from the agent in charge of the case, Special Agent Clyde Ellis, Jr. of the Dallas FBI office, to notify you of the investigation and to respond to your activities.
DEMAND is hereby made on you to cease and desist from all contact and activities with Heritage including, but not limited to, all calls and emails to Heritage personnel, the creation and maintenance of accounts, the placement of bids, internet postings and any business or purported business with Heritage. Further DEMAND is made that you cease and desist from tendering any complaints regarding Heritage to any person or party and immediately withdraw all complaints that you have made or caused to be made against Heritage.
You are hereby notified that within twenty-four (24) hours of this letter, Heritage will cause a copy of this letter to be posted to or delivered to each service or agency to which you have issued a complaint.
This letter serves to conclude any further business transactions between you and Heritage. Heritage reserves all rights, remedies and causes of action that it has against you.
TAKE DUE NOTICE AND CONDUCT YOURSELF ACCORDINGLY.
Sincerely,
Richard K. Brainerd
General Counsel
