As I see it, many high end auction houses should treat consignors as customers. Clearly, without product, particularly high end product, they would not have a business. It may be the result of the current bull market but many of them act like we consignors, are lucky to be able to consign with them. Before i get a lot of messages about Goldin, I am not referring specifically to them. Many of the high end auction houses act this way. If there is a way to sell directly to fellow collectors, that would be the perfect world.
