Hunt - get your internet issues fixed

[Runscott]

It sucks being without internet. We changed providers a week ago and they bit the dust last night - centurylink won't come out to fix their screw-up until at least Saturday. That left me bidding from a crap coffee shop connection. But I am learning to type on a galaxy mini

I was bidding on one lot. This kinda sucks.

It may be running a little better.. I just placed 2 bids with NO errors. Stay tuned folks!

I can't believe with as much money as they make that they have the crappiest website out there of any auction house. The pictures are small and terrible, descriptions are small. You would think on some of the nice items they have they always just put one picture and never multiple pictures like other auction houses. When they have game used bats they just take one picture. I would like to see what the knob looks like and the barrel and multiple pictures and it's just one picture of the whole bat so you have to email them to have them send you better pictures why not do that in the first place on the website. I complained before about how crappy their website is and after all these years its still the same.

I regularly spend 6 figures a year on online auctions for baseball cards and memorabilia. Because of Hunt's ridiculous website and system I don't even peruse their auctions. If you consign with them you need to have your head examined.

You would think after 2 decades of being successful, he would upgrade his catalogs/website etc. Maybe to much success has made him lazy.. Not sure what his mindset is, if any.

Hunt was the entity that bought the legendary Willow Grove/Ft Washington show. That show ran 4x annually for years and was almost as good as the National. But, have you heard anything about it recently? I doubt it.

They get consignments from people who don't know better and they have a low rent operation, otherwise they'd be gone.

I stupidly spent 25 minutes messing around with their crap-awful website this afternoon. I thought I had blocked their emails but if so one got through today and I foolishly clicked. As far as I'm concerned I got what I deserved--25 minutes of aggravation. Never again, and shame on me for thinking it would be an easier or better experience than the last five times I swore off (and at) their site.

They did seem to get it fixed and the one lot I bid on is already more than I want to pay for it. I am not even the under bidder. Good luck to everyone...

I am one person with sales barely at $150k a year and the auction site I use is much better than Hunt's. I almost never bid in their auctions due to poor images and how difficult it is to navigate. I can't understand why they don't upgrade their platform.

Their website without question is the worst in the hobby, but it's hard to get the deals that I used to 5-10 years ago so they probably figure they don't need to change because while it might seem like 90% of Net54 members claim they won't bid in a Hunt auction because of their website, lots of people somewhere are bidding and making it hard to get any kind of a deal.
