Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>If you are talking about Hunt Auctions Inc, they have a very strong reputation as a sports auction house. Joe DiMaggio's family chose Hunt to auction Joe's collection after he died, and Hunt wouldn't have a very strong reputation if they were a perveyer of bogus memorabilia including autographs.

Posted By: <b>Rich W.</b><p>I've known David Hunt personally for 10 years. His honesty and integrity far outweighs any other auctioneer I have ever met, whether in sports memorabilia or general antiques. <br /><br />One great story that illustrates David's integrity: After the Friday session of his two day auction, we were chatting about a few of the pieces and how they did. I mentioned in particular an oddball Phillies piece (David always gets extremely strong money for Phillies stuff due to his base in Pennsylvania) that I thought received strong money at $500.00. David then pulled out his book and showed the left bid that he had...$5,000.00. Instead of lamenting what could have happened, David commented on how happy his customer would be. <br /><br />Rich W.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Am I the only one that thinks their site is rather easy to navigate? It has a search function, you can look at auctions 100/page, and you can look at a list of items you've bid on. I don't have any problems navigating Hunt's.

Posted By: <b>Mike H</b><p>I think from a site perspective, it would be a big improvement to be able to scroll through pics like Mastro, rather than reading each and every lot and clicking one at at time.

Posted By: <b>MikeU</b><p>Bought from them a few times; no problems, quick shipments and good service. I do agree with some others about their website i.e. I do not like the inability to scroll through photo's or sort data based on bid amounts etc. That certainly does not keep me from bidding and winning on ocassion.

Posted By: <b>schr1st</b><p>They are one of the few auction houses that don't authenticate through PSA/DNA or JSA that I'll buy from, and am one very happy bidder there! I do wish the listings were a bit easier to navigate though.

Posted By: <b>Dan P.</b><p>I've been dealing with Hunt Auctions (live and internet auctions) for years and never a problem. I've dealt with cards only, though.

Posted By: <b>Mark Steinberg</b><p>As both a consignor and bidder, I feel they are top-notch, with none better. Hunt is as reputable as they come, and pays consignors within 30 days without fail.<br /><br />I actually like their website... the completed auctions search function is one of the best, with the ability to reference items as far back as the year 2000.
