How's this for a twist
(Leaving out player and auction house name per initial thread) I consigned a game used bat (which I owned at ~5k). I told the auction company I wanted close to that at the very least out of it. I was assured it would sell for 5k+ Due to some missteps by the auction house, it was delayed by ~7 months getting into one of their catalogues (2 auctions later). They advanced me 5k on the bat. When it did finally sell, it only sold for 3500. They were very honorable and did not ask for any money back. So the house took the beating - that's what I call putting your money where your mouth is!
