It is quite pondering why David Hunt still uses that antiquated platform. It's really a disservice to his consigners and his auction house.
I have also wondered about the basis of their live auctions like the most recent Louisville Slugger auction. I think it's great to hold a live auction but their initial bidding ends the day before and a bidder must be on a phone call at the time the item is selling and bid if they are not on site. I just can't see that many bidders that want to hang around for a phone call rather than place a bid online where the auctions ends at a determined time. I know they now offer live bidding through Invaluable but I don't think that works any better.
I am not going to complain because I have gotten some really nice items at great prices at their live auctions that I don't think I would have gotten if they were with another competing auction house.
