It’s usually less expensive items that are around $1,000. Most of the excuses revolve around job losses or health issues…but that’s usually code for bidder’s remorse. It’s funny that most of the “job loss” and “health issue” people call up for future auctions and wonder why their bidding privileges have been disabled. We did have one bidder who did pass away and our consignor was fortunately very understanding.
