Default Broker Obligation

Posted By: joe brennan

I dont remember the exact case and I may be a little vague on the details, but I do recall the purchase of a 52 mantle that had been altered, I.e colored. It was put in a safe for a very long time and brought out for grading and deemed altered. The case went to court and the judge ruled in favor of the buyer and that it was the brokers, auction houses, reponsibility to refund the buyer. If I deal with a reputable auction house or broker, unless noted, I feel that the card should be guaranteed for life. I would hate to buy a Piccasso from the such and 2 years later found out it was a fake and the broker says, Sorry only a 30 day guarranty. Just my 2 cents. Joe
