So, they are still going to treat this as a Premier auction- which is foolish. I haven't responded to them yet but I will tell them 'no thanks'. You need my bank or credit card info to bid on a couple of cards which probably won't exceed $650 total? I just won 2 cards from them in their weekly auction ending 7/16- (which haven't even been shipped yet), and they can't see the hypocrisy in their request? It's simple: Call REA, my #1 reference, and ask them about my buying history. Done. If I'm the consigner of this set, I am not happy. They've just limited their buying pool by a large amount.

Please understand I am not agreeing with them. I am not a fan of PWCC and I am hoping that new owners changes that.
I do not know what their requirements are but I do know for me to bid in Hunt Auction Recently as a premier bidder(or whatever it was called) and in Goldin at a certain limit those types of items were requested for me to be able to bid.

And Hunt did not distinguish between price points to be approved but for the specific type of auction

So what they are asking for is not uncommon in the business.
