A certain auction house once explained to me that to describe every item in a large lot (that I was consigning) takes away some of the "mystery", and they felt they could get a higher price if the description remained somewhat vague.
I didn't agree, but what the hell did I know? And I was ultimately satisfied with the results they got. But I wonder if this might explain why they are reluctant to provide a detailed description - sort of the old "grab bag" idea that adds an element of gambling to the bidding process.
