Am I Wrong or Is Hunt Auctions Wrong?

[sports-rings]

Sorry I got a little heated.

You bring up some great points. I am trying to be more constructive and less combative. I did converse with Hunt at least three times privately and tried to resolve this matter behind the scenes. I kept the conversations positive and tried to remind them that an item returned would not do the consigner or auction house any good.

My next step was to seek advise from others before posting here to see if I had blown this issue out of proportion.

I think stating in the description that there is a "different configuration for a player version" of the ring may have been good and proper wording, and provide the notice needed.

there is only about four or five different categories, not too hard for auction houses to figure out if they take a few moments, ask a few questions, and consult a few experts that know rings. how hard is that.

salesman sample,

players ring,

coaches ring

staff and associates ring

A type The real deal with diamonds

B type the cheaper CZ version

maybe a couple of other types that i didnt list as i am not an expert, but to just list a championship ring and try to let the consumer figure it out, not kosher for an auction house to do.

somewhat off topic but still regarding Hunts auctions website....

There is one item I have interest in with the current live auction.

When I went to register, when asking for CC information, I noticed that the site didn't appear have to HTTPS (although there is a verisign secure logo)

This bothered me somewhat and I have yet to register.

Should I be worried?

I would just call them up and see if they would verify - Heritage has that available (in addition to online verification) I'm not sure about hunts though.

They have been around a long time and are considered one of the big auction houses. I would not worry about them having your credit card information. I believe this is standard procedure at auction houses.
