Greg; exactly my point here nothing against Steve or what he’s trying to do.

Also not insinuating he’s a bad guy or up to no good, just looking at this from a different POV I guess, which I assume Steve is ok with he's a tough ol' bird with thick skin.

There were a few lots I know I would have offered really strong coin on but never even had the chance too. I literally went to lunch came back it was listed and gone in a matter of hours.

One can’t help but wonder what would be the harm to leave them up for a few days take as many offers as you can then take the highest one and post the sale price for future reference (optional).

As said before some of these lots were up and gone in a matter of hours, and many faces and wallets aren’t seeing them or missing them by hours not to even be able to offer coin that in itself leads me to think money is being left on the table. I'm sorry if that makes me a bad guy for thinking that...

I understand these folks need money but do they need the money in a few hours they can’t wait a few days or a week? And yes there are auction houses who offer nice cash advances.

I would assume if the consignors can wait while Steve pieces these out by the hour, over weeks and the few days it takes to get funds from folks once sold; that they could live off reasonable cash advance while the lots are given ample time to mature for more than a few hours in the BST.

I dont think there's anything wrong with warning or pointing out other view points or options that may offer more money in the long run to this lady and Steve as well.

Hey at the end of the day as long as the folks (Consignor) with the cards are happy I guess that’s all that matters.

I think that’s all any of us are saying in this thread….that’s all I’m saying.

Cheers,

John
