Yeah Ryan, why don't you go ahead and touch base with him and let us know how it goes?

Dan--so what's the damage? You feel they overcharged you $7? Not worth having a cow over that. That seems like a Buck Showalter reaction, not a reaction from my usually mild mannered friend Dan.

Multiple million dollar collection and overcharged $7 on shipping. Not really feelin it.

So it's ok to be over charged if your rich. You don't become rich with out counting the pennies.

Dan will probably be the first to tell ya, he's not "rich", but he is sitting on a gold mine. he basically bought "gold" at $10 an ounce.

Smart man, that Dan is.

I wish the hobby veterans on this board like Dan would post more about the big finds they have come across over the years. I've really enjoyed the reminiscing of hobby history by Mike Berkus, Josh Evans, etc. at the Net54 dinners.

He also mentions that he emailed them and sent them a note and didn't get a response from either, so not only does he feel he was overcharged, he also feels like they somehow, for some reason think they are too good to explain their charges to him. It's not just the overcharge, it's also the disrespect they showed him.

I quit bidding in their auctions, or even looking at their offerings, after they screwed Ryan over years ago. This just reaffirms to me that my earlier decision never to do business with them again was the correct one.

I can't think of a single auction house that hasn't been raked over the coals here, or that hasn't had at least one forum member say that they will never do business with them again. Maybe Leland's?

I bet that if we picked 100 people here and gave each veto power over one auction house, and said that the end result would be that no one on the board could bid in the veto'd auction houses.....we would all have to just use the B/S/T here to acquire our collectibles.

I won 38 graded cards in last week's Sterling Sports Auction - that's a lot of plastic and a lot of weight. My shipping charge was $18, which I gladly paid and thought was very reasonable. Then, I got a refund notice from PayPal with a note from Lee saying, "I was able to get it all in a Medium FR, so here is a little back." He refunded me $3, making my shipping cost only $15 for 38 graded cards. Is that excellent customer service, or what?!? Maybe these other AH's should take note.

Thank you, Lee!!!
