Even with a contractural agreement in place, it should not be too hard to understand the seller's frustration if you are the auction house. A lot of collectors sell their cards because they need to finance another aspect of their life. So it should not be too difficult to understand that a seller is counting on the money that is being held.
I don't see why an auction house can't advance funds after a certain period of time. If they are awaiting payment from some priviledged bidder that they have extended special financing to, why would they be worried about covering the price for the bidder and expediting payment to the seller?
