American Memorabilia

An update on the AMI fiasco. It is now almost May, and still no sign of a consignment check, or any other compensation for Lots sold in AMI's November Auction. No return communication either...

"K" originally used her patented excuse about not yet being paid (after 5 months), but could not articulate which lot(s) remained unpaid for. When pressed for specifics, the commuication just stopped.

Maybe I should make a trip to Las Vegas to get my consignments back. Does anybody think they would still actually be there, or would this be more of a "gamble" than playing the slots?

Just reinforcing my strongest advice to avoid this outfit at all costs (with regard to bidding, and consigning, both). If I had just sold these items on Ebay, I would have been paid in October 2007, and avoided the 15% commission, as well as multiple headaches and wasted time spent trying to recoup my money.
