<p>[QUOTE="Ken Dorney, post: 2689327, member: 76086"]I suppose I feel a need to chime in here and give my opinion as a dealer. Please keep in mind that the auction closed less than a week ago. Triskeles is a one person operation. I can tell you it is a lot of work even when you have just a simple VCoins store with a few sales per day and not several hundred in one day. There is a lot going on with an auction. Consignors, buyers, various e-mails all vying for ones time and attention. Add to this of course that everything needs to be packed and shipped. And of course its not just a simple matter that we get an e-mail which appears to say that a payment has been received. All payments have to be verified. Simply put its a lot of work. Even CNG with their big staff has delays. It has taken several weeks from payment to shipment in my experience (on occasion, not consistently). I always know i will get what I paid for. </p><p><br /></p><p>I guess one of the reasons why I have commented is that I will be running an auction soon at Agora. I hope I dont get dinged if it takes a week or two to ship. My schedule in the past has always been that the first payer gets shipped first, the last payer the last.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
