Dean Kruse Article

[Bill Pritchard]

IMO : Dean Kruse <span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="text-decoration: underline">might</span></span></span> have been a 'genius' if he had just taken the eBay money and run off to retirement....but noooooo, he let his ego get the best of him and tried to salvage the business after eBay had run it into the ground. It had already begun to deteriorate even before the sale to eBay, so they can't be blamed entirely. Then, factor in a deteriorating economy and his apparent belief in the 'good ol boy network' way of doing business with some people, and it was the perfect recipe for disaster. Kudos to him if he manages to pay off all those who are owed money, but his days as a respected figure in the hobby/business are long over.
