Auction Catalogs

Agreed. Even worse when you live in Canada. Zero issue every arrive in time.

Actually with the auctons being online and good digital photos, why mail catalogs at all. You look at them once or twice and in the recycle bin they go.

Why catalogs? To garner consignments.

I may be in the minority here but I'm with kmac32 on this one. 15 second shelf life in the time it takes me to walk from my mailbox to recycle bin. Digital has rendered them obsolete for me. And they've done nothing to influence me one way or the other on whom consign with.

They might not influence you but they do a lot of collectors. I agree though, catalogs are not needed much anymore.

I don't know how much they influence my bidding but I like getting the catalogs. They're fun to page through on the couch. Sometimes I miss the net54 post and for some reason I'm not getting AH emails so I forget about an auction. When I get the catalog I will go to the site and check it out at least.

Same here, but substitute "can" for "couch".

Same here. Just give me a good scan online.

I can now tell my wife that I am not the only one who keeps their auction catalogs in this spot.
