Sounds like "The Human Fund" from Seinfeld.

If this isn't justification NOT to use Crazy Uncle, I don't know what is.

Crazy Uncle seems very Crazy after reading this thread. That's a shame. Glad I never purchased from an auction house. 18%-21% on anything is retarded. My name is crime and crime don't pay that. Add in the horrible service and what do you have? ZERO.

The service level by that elite group of "collectors " seems pretty rotten to the core from these experiences of their customers. You wonder why it is so easy to make a killing in the world today. All you have to do is service the customer. So easy.

Just like your wife...... If you don't service the customer, somebody else will.

It still amazes me that it has been 5 weeks since the auction closed, 7 pages so far on this thread, plenty of comments about CU (mostly negative......ok all negative......I was trying to be nice) but not one single solitary rebuttal from Crazy Uncle. We all know he has been on the site. He claims he has "people" that inform him of everything on Net54. So if anyone reading this is one of his "people"...�..get some feedback from Aaron.

Everyone reading this is hearing a one sided story......only from me. I welcome Aaron's comments. I'm asking for them, begging for them, rubbing my magic lamp and using my third wish to get them. You guys on Net54 can be the jury. You've heard from the Plaintiff...�...can we get the other side's story or defense ???

Isn't Ryan Spence the son of JSA's James Spence?

https://crazyuncleauctions.com/aboutus.aspx

Is there a possibility of Spence or his company having some ownership of Crazy Uncles? I know they spam for a lot of auction houses, but they did send me emails for both Crazy Uncle auctions.

Ooof... this would add a layer of craziness if JSA was part of the ownership.....

Considering how late the images for the first auction were I think I'd have asked to have my name removed.

I may have to trump you on this one...�..in addition to my nightmare from this ordeal, and still awaiting a ton of merchandise to be returned, this morning via USPS I find a package with 22 COAs (JSA, PSA, etc.) but only one item associated with those COAs are in the box (a Gerald Ford signed baseball......the least expensive of all of the COA items.) While I am still awaiting many many many items, as far as this box goes, where are the other 21 items that you sent me back my COAs on ???

If they are truly that unorganized, I don't think you can even begin to count on getting all of your items returned safely.

I have heard plenty of auction house horror stories, but these are by far the worst. When your items are all split-up and COAs are separated from the corresponding merchandise, it's a nightmare to clean up. Good thing you documented everything you had sent them, or this would be even worse.

It sounds like this will be a very long, drawn-out miserable ordeal. Hope that somehow you are made whole in the end (as unlikely as that now seems).

Hopefully I get it resolved sooner than later !!!

I actually have a crazy uncle. I explained this story to him and he said, �That auction guy ain�t crazy....he�s a f***ing clown!� This coming from a guy who did hard time and drinks pickle juice straight from the jar.

Don't knock the pickle juice......that'll put some hair on your chest (and tongue, teeth, and eye balls)
