I told them this is America and that is not the way America works anid with only 2 days left it is a time sensitive question. They said I don't need to bid in their auctions. I said the person on the phone was an idiot and hung up. They cancelled my registration fortunately. LOL

It was a photo. I think they sell everything and not a lot of sports. The person on the phone was quite adamant and testy as to me paying for an item even if they misrepresented it. I can't imagine telling a customer that if my company makes a mistake they are still bound to buy the item. I don't care about any processes. If I make a material mistake (repro or real?) I am not making someone else pay for it, whether they followed MY rule or not.

There are too many quality AH out there to fool around with screwballs like this who haven't an effing clue.

I emailed them earlier this week (first time I'd heard of them, despite living less than an hour away). No email back. There was an item I was interested in from their current auction - I considered just going to their live auction, but realize weekend time with my kids has to outweigh the likely reproduction item I would spend half a day going to check out...

I went to see what they had back in my old MA days. Throughly unimpressed with the facility and the workers, as well as the results of my oriental rug, and signed antique paintings. I think the rug hammered at %25 of their estimate, and the paintings I could have sol le for more at a yard sale as the frames alone would have brought out the buyers. They have been around a long time, and their name has been circulating, probably the one reason they get any consignments
