<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3236197, member: 19463&quot;]What happens when the consigning customer and the purchasing customer disagree?&nbsp; An auction house is dependent of a steady flow of material to sell.&nbsp; Some of them have professional staffs; some of them have phone answerers and lot packagers.&nbsp; I suspect most of the long term and fully professional houses have a drawer of things they ended up buying themselves when it turned out they made a mistake.&nbsp; We all make mistakes.&nbsp; Those who make the same mistake repeatedly bring into question the level of professional judgement we all have the right to demand for the additional price we pay for their services.&nbsp; Lately we have seen reputable old names fall from grace under new managements.&nbsp; A couple fell from &#039;always trust&#039; to &#039;never touch&#039; in short order.&nbsp; Keeping up with such things makes it easier to limit the sources from which you buy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
