4. Just because their pace of investigating is not what you would consider fast enough doesn't make them guilty of anything.

If you were the consigner here and they took the items down without so much as an email, how pissed would you be?

4. - I am not saying they are guilty of anything. I stated that Chris and I have different opinions on the timing. These are opinions and I don't think either of us are right or wrong.

If I was the consigner how would I feel? I am glad you asked:

He contacted me prior to putting the items in the auction as I have purchased rings from him in the past.

I sent him pictures of real rings and told him that Donnie Edwards was not a player. The consigner chose to proceed anyway and put the items in the auction.

The consigner is a "buyer" of jewelry and decided to try to unload these rings on an unsuspecting public.
