Peter_SpaethIn my view, if there is no express contractual provision for transfer consigned material to another auctioneer, then it would be a breach to do so. I think it would be difficult to argue that the consignor impliedly agreed to the transfer, because for the reasons Aaron articulated the consignor might well prefer to get the item back. That said, do we know for sure that Legendary didn't contact the consignors and get permission?
