Default What do consignors want from an auction house?

Posted By: MVSNYC

97% of the bidding comes from online? that seems to be a huge number, i would think less...i am old-fashioned and prefer calling and placing bids by phone and speaking with a human.

also i hear what you are saying about the catalogs, but us collectors really enjoy looking thru them and saving them as reference tools, as you noted. plus, it is quick & easy to flag-off certain pages, and flip to a lot, then flip-back to another page, and look at the auction as a "whole"...


Barry- i was able to easily get a half-page commitment for a PSA 9 T206 from at least 2 of the major houses...

remember, we are talking $10,000+ for even a common 9.

and the 10?...$30,000+
