The important thing to file away is ... this is NOT who you turn your collection over to sell.
A major auction house (who will remain nameless) once sold a lot with a few W572 strips in it. I bid exactly what the strips were worth based on what they said was in the lot and historical sales - and one guy came over the top of me and went one bid higher. No big deal. The buyer contacted me after the auction and mentioned that he received extra strips and cards (including several extra HOFers!) from the auction house when he got the lot from them. In my opinion, this major auction house committed fraud against its consignor. If they had disclosed those extra strips and cards, my bid would have been at least $500 higher. Would I have won? Who knows. But the consignor lost money. That is certain. And this auction house won't get my business. That is certain. Cheers, Patrick
