When you send items to an AH do they not give you some sort of itemized receipt saying they received what you sent?
Are the items insured by the AH while in their possession, or do I need to purchase some sort of coverage myself?
When problems occur does it turn into a he/she said v he/she said, or is there some sort of system to insure AH accountability?
Thanks!

You should call and interview AHs. Ask them these specific questions to get THEIR specific answers. In my experience (with only one AH), I created an original list of items (lots of items), the AH insured the items as soon as I shipped them, I received an itemized receipt after the auction closed, and there were no problems. I made a few special requests that were honored without any hesitation. I interviewed 4 different AHs.

Love of the Game was the right choice for me!
