Default How to get ripped off by SCP Auctions & Sotheby's

Posted By: Ryan Christoff

Corey,

The following comparison photos illustrate the difference between what was you would have been able to view if you were at the live auction vs. what you would have actually gotten. The one on the left is what it looked like in the frame. Neither of these views mattered to those of us who weren't there because they were both cropped entirely out of the catalog photo. I suppose it was just coincidence that it was matted this way? Same thing goes for defects on the right edge that were matted out. In both cases, portions of the players were matted out in order to cover defects. Interested to hear your explanation.

-Ryan
