Mastro REALLY slow right now

I didn't think the prices were weak at all.

As for the auction, the server was slow, kicked me off, ridiculous. How would you like to be a consignor and know for a fact that certain bids couldn't be placed because Mastro apparently didn't anticipate the traffic (again)?

My suggestion for Doug is that the $75 catalog fee they charge in order to make Mastro a "first class" auction house should be increased to $7500 and the BP should be increased to 100 percent. I feel fairly comfortable that those numbers will make things even better for Mastro because apparently charging the highest BP and the catalog fee is just not getting it done!

Edited to add: Leon, I have a suggestion for a new poll.

What would you rather have from Mastro?

a) Mastro-stamped packing tape so that you won't forget who is sending you your package from Mastro?

b) Mastro-produced slick promotional DVD that will remind you that Mastro is the greatest and firstest ratest auction house?

c) More advertisting from Mastro so that you won't forget that Mastro is the greatest and firstest ratest auction house?

d) Higher BP and SP from Mastro so that Mastro can continue to be the greatest and firstest ratest auction house?

e) An internet auction from Mastro that actually functions well when it actually matters?
