Fair point, Peter. When fraud is being committed against the buyer in order to inflate auction prices, the sellers are happy. Unfortunately, when the auction house starts to rip off the sellers too, then auction houses with traditionally great consignments start to have auctions with just crap in them. And sometimes even the crap doesn't sell or gets pulled at the very end of the auction.
