Am I right to be annoyed about how this auction I won was described?

I think the biggest injustice is the fact that the AH claimed all were "signed" by the respective Managers. If they are indeed mostly carbon copies, that is a huge oversight and/or misrepresentation.

Was it stated anywhere that the vast majority were carbon copies? If not, I would definitely address it with the AH (and push for some sort of recourse).

Different managers had different practices (some kept the top copy themselves, some gave it to the other manager, some gave it to the ump, and many were inconsistent. The ratio was as expected.

Years distribution/percentage should have been more detailed-- not saying they should calculate the exact percentages, but give a better idea. If the listed managers' signatures are just carbon copies, then that was clearly and significantly erroneous and worth complaining about.

Hi Jeff...you know that I also collect these line-up cards. I called Goldin's directly to ask questions about this lot. I did not bid because of the answers that I got about this lot. Sorry if you were disappointed. Please email me to discuss purchasing some of the cards from you?

Thanks,

Jeff

I've only got a couple years of experience with auction houses, but I learned pretty quickly if there's a way to deceptively weave an item description, they will do it.

Assume nothing and leave nothing to chance...or without out a doubt, you will be disappointed.
