On this thread though, I agree that the House made the error and should have rifled your lot right out to you.
I am guessing they have been smoked in the past with people keeping both their lot and the wrong original lot they received.
Not cool

I'm not implying they do it on every card, or even on a lot of cards. I also don't think they have access to top bids and if they win something I am sure they are paying consignors appropriately. I don't for a second doubt they are following the law. I am not trying to start a conspiracy or scandal thread as I don't think there is one. They do however participate in a business practice that I find distasteful as a buyer and unethical as an auctioneer. Of course they make millions of dollars and I make dozens so...
