Default What do consignors want from an auction house?

Posted By: davidcycleback

Barry there are auction houses who I think dubious and don't even follow their auctions. It's not a matter of whether they have or have not the best Matty item ever, as I wouldn't know. Even if Coaches Corner has in their next auction a genuine Babe Ruth signed baseball with JSA/PSA/Mike Gutierrez LOAs, I wouldn't notice.

Most auction houses I follow and bid in, I don't know what's in their auction before hand or because of PR notices. I find out what's in their auction by looking through their listings, as that's what loyal customers expecting to place bids do.

In my case, it is literally true that if a seller treats me poorly I won't look at their auctions-- as there's little point in following auctions I have plan on bidding in.
