I think there is some human mentality associated with taking a consignment. It's not always rose and lily gardens. Generally if a lot of work has to be done then more expense is incurred and thus higher fees. IF something is different than that, all the better for the consignor.

Seems like the lot would be easier to prepare/photograph/describe then 50 individual items.

Is this the norm for AH's?
