I was mostly saying I haven't ever given out info like that, for our newer members, but I appreciate the vote of confidence (as well as the others). If I was doing anything wrong in the hobby, it would be known about. Comes with the territory. I have no worries in that respect. My worry is, how can I afford to keep collecting!!
As for the original topic, go with trusted sources. Very new auction houses need to get an extra bit of review.
and a card for no real reason....

Insofar as unsolicited auction house emails are concerned, I don't necessarily mind them provided that it appears that the business in question is at least trying to run a fairly clean operation. If the material seems mostly forged or altered, that deeply bothers me and makes me question which businesses are sharing information with a shady outfit.
On a related note, auction house emails are fine in small numbers. If these businesses constantly flood my inbox, I consider that invasive. I simply refuse to do business with people who can't tell the difference between a tactful limit of email contact and sheer annoyance/spam. There's lots of competition out there for my money. Stuff doesn't trump all for everybody.
