Good point Sam. I wasn't trying to be polarizing but indeed may have contributed to that. There are some auction houses I like a great deal. My only point in feeding this thread is that I think there are business practices among the large AHs (particularly closing auctions at 4:30am and taking two weeks to get your stuff to the PO) that show a real lack of respect for their customers. I understand they have business reasons for doing it. And maybe its a "good business model" despite the lack of consideration these practices exhibit. But I'm done with that nonsense. As Damon Wayans used to say on Living Color, Homey don't play that anymore. PWCC's pared down business model (no glossy catalogs, take Paypal, shipping quickly, etc., etc.) has to be forcing these guys to reassess or they are foolish. We buyers only have so much money to spend.
