When I finally received my last consignment check (after a prolonged wait) I recall feeling a huge sense of releif. At that time, I decided to use ebay and the BST for my lower-end stuff.

With regard to autographs, Bricol used to require (and charged consignors for) accompanying Spence or PSA authentication. About 2 years ago (after an extended hiatus) they re-emerged with some questionable (CC type) signed items, and no authentication.

I believe what the above poster is saying. Others have logged past similar complaints in this forum. He was likely directed over here in his search for help/assistance in fighting this matter. The fact that it's his first post doesn't detract from the bad business practice that I believe he's trying to overcome. Hope he can get the help and justice that's warranted. Just my 2 cents...
I have heard the Bricol horror stories before, there have been several threads here about them.
Like I said first post,,, always looked at by me with a little concern.
