I’ve deal with a number of AHs where issues have arisen. And they have been professional about it. And they get my repeat business.
Here’s an example ….. Al from LOTG reached out to me probably a year after I bought a piece of memorabilia to tell me further research and info he received from others convinced him the piece I bought was counterfeit and he was sending me a refund. Did he have to do this? Money out of his pocket. Sure he didn’t ask the consignor to send his money back. That’s called integrity. I’ve had Scott Garner send me a check for something I consigned long ago and totally forgot about. That’s called doing the right thing. There are still good people in the business.

That was a class act on Al’s part.
