Dude, the whole point of an auction house is to drive the prices as high as they can (while still getting everything sold). They're not in business to supply you with bargains.

Do people generally like REA?
I found the "day of" continuing to extend the auction frustrating, and black box.
Lack of modern payment methods.
Emails telling us that they can close the auction anytime at 10pm to obvious....
Just felt like they are driving up bottom line prices on collectables for the premium.
Don't get me wrong, I want to build my involvement in this business. Just was caught off guard on my first experiences.
