Hunt Thread

[ajw]

I'm the guy that started the thread. Not that it matters, but it was probably a good thing to move it for a bit. That said, I'd like to follow any discussion that happens later. If anyone thinks of it, could you shoot me an email with a link to the new thread once it pops up? I only visit on rare occasions, so there's a good chance I'd miss it.

Thanks,

Drew

For those that don't know Hunt Auctions had a very poor situation with security in their s/w last night. It was allowing things to be seen that shouldn't have been, such as other bidders bids, contact info etc....(I think, I never really saw the stuff myself). I got a call from them last night asking if I could do something to help. I moved the thread from the front page to another area and renamed it so as to give them time to fix it. Hunts told me they were working on fixing it last night and they were supposed to let me know when it was done. They didn't ever get back with me. They also said they wished the original poster on this board would have called them about it. I guess he didn't, again, I don't know I am just going by what I was told. Hopefully they have it fixed by now. There really wasn't anymore info in the other thread than is here now. At any rate that is the story. regards

I thought that I read in the original thread that he said he did call, talk to someone and sent them a link to show them how he was doing it. That may have been his first thread on the memorabilia side. As a semi-frequent bidder I would like to know when/if it was/is fixed.

Hard to believe that the state of the art auction software Hunt utilizes encountered any difficulties...

Yikes.....As a competing auctioneer I will keep most of my thoughts to myself.

And Jeff (HRBAKER)- maybe he did call but Sonny, at Hunts, told me he didn't. Maybe if he did he spoke with someone else.

Maddening. I've almost just given up on them. I still peruse the catalog when it comes but I have a hard time with the small thumbnail pictures and weird navigation. I'm computer savvy but that site is ridiculous. Doesn't do anything you would expect it to. And that front page with the swirling icons is hideous.

And why do I have to keep seeing Michael Jordan everytime I go on their site. It's just odd.

I could go on and on but have more important things to do... like ogle at John's back collection.

After Jeff P's post above I called Hunts just this minute, again. Sonny told me he tried duplicating the issue while we were on the phone and it seems fixed. That being said he asked that if anyone sees this issue not being fixed he would appreciate a call at 610-524-0822 to explain it. Just tell the person answering the phone that you are from Net54 and would like to speak with Sonny. He is appreciative of the help. And btw, he and I had a very good, honest discussion pertaining to their website. In no uncertain terms I let him know my thoughts on it and he is in agreement and says they are working on making it better. regards

I read that as well, Jeff.

See you in Chicago.
