Default AFINSA - US Member Companies?

Can someone kindly list those US businesses which are part of the
Afinsa group?

From the Afinsa group's own website we know that HR Harmer, and
Corinphila are part of Afinsa.

Which US auctions are also in the Afinsa group, so that we can avoid?

Default AFINSA - US Member Companies?


Afinsa has a controlling interest in the Escala Group, a group which is
quoted on the NASDAQ stock eschange in the USA. The members of the
group are a s follows: -

1. "A Mark" - This company is the USA's largest precious metal and
bullion dealer and a relatively new acquisition by Escala. It has a
turnover which runs into many billions of dollars with relatively tight
profit margins.

2. "Afinsa Auctions" - Specialist stamp auctioneer in Spain -
internet based. Has not traded since February. A separate legal entity
to Afinsa.

3. "Bowers and Moreno" - Coin dealer and auctioneer USA still
trading.

4. "Central de Compras" Spanish stamp dealer with exclusive contract
to supply Afinsa - not trading.

5. "Corinphila" - Swiss Auction House - stamps - based in Zurich -
still trading.

6. "Greg Manning Auctions" - Stamps - USA - exclusive contract to
supply Afinsa. Still trading.

7. "Greg Manning Galleries" - Stamp dealer - USA - Still trading.

8. "H R Harmer" - Stamp Auctioneer - USA - Still trading.

9. "Heinrich Kohler" - 2 German Auction Houses - still trading.

10. "Ivy and Manning" - Stamp Auctioneer - USA - Still trading.

11. "Kingswood Coins" - Coin Dealer - USA - Still trading.

12. "North American Certified Trading" - Coin Dealer - USA- Still
trading.

13. "Nutmeg Stamp Sales" - Stamp Auctioneer - USA - Still trading.

14. "Spectrum Numismatics" Coin dealer USA - Still trading.

15. "Teletrade" Coin and sports card dealer - USA - Still Trading.

16. "John Bull" Stamp Auctioneer Hong Kong - Still trading.

17. "Superior Sport LLC" Sports Memorabilia sales and auctions - USA
- Still trading.

Escala's current share price on the Nasdaq exchange is $5.81 as at
fridays close. The group are currently facing a large number of
shareholder class actions and in addition face a US Government
Investigation.

All the companies named above, apart from the 2 Spanish subsidiaries
continue to trade profitably and even should the liquidators of Afinsa
in Spain decide to sell the component parts of the group it is probable
that they wouold all be sold as going concerns - a management buy out
would not be beyond expectation. Dealing with the companies mentioned
above (excepting the two Spanich subsidiaries) does not pose any more
danger than dealing with any other auctioneer. What does pose a danger
is owning Escala Shares which could in the longer term prove to be an
extremely bad investment. From a high of $35 or thereabouts the shares
have crashed and are unlikely to recover. They could fall further
whilst the current crisis continues.

What is altest INTERPOL actions against Afinsa group?
Have RICO in USA acted against the US affiliates?


If Greg Manning is part of AFINSA, is it just as crooked, and should
those wishing to sell, avoid dealing with Manning?


What about NUTMEG STAMPS, now part of Greg Manning?
Is it safe to deal with them? Anyone having problems getting paid?

Why is no one actually responding to the key question?

Are all you sycophants afraid to answer, because of the reputed power
of the crooks involved?

What is latest INTERPOL actions against Afinsa group?
Have RICO in USA acted against the US affiliates?

If Greg Manning is part of AFINSA, is it just as crooked, and should
those wishing to sell, avoid dealing with Manning?

Because it is a waste of their time. You sir, and your half-arse
answers, are simply a waste of time. You've been asked countless
times to back up your allegations, but you keep on resending the same
message over and over again, expecting different results.

This is one of the explanations given for insanity.

You present straw man cases and cannot back up anything you say.
First, it's Edmonton, now this sale (?) of yours. Do you really think
that people will do business with someone like yourself?

If you do, then you need some inpatient strapdown therapy, ECT and
maintenance drugs to keep you afloat.

Your type of dialog brings out the worst in people and nothing ever
gets resolved. This is called "sit and spin".

Until your tarnished reputation has been healed - Bill - which at this
time seems unlikely, you will not sell these "stamps" for anything but
peanuts.
