What sorts of excuses do you hear from nonpaying bidders?

In my opinion, not a good look for a board advertiser looking for consignments. This is surprising to me, especially since for an auction house as big as GA this is not a big amount.

I've had issues on two different lots I have won on Goldin.

BOTH issues were taken care of promptly and to my satisfaction.

I came away from both experiences extremely impressed - and will continue bidding in their auctions.

Frankly, I look forward to the release of each auction.

Yeah, certainly gives me pause. I think a month is generous.

It’s usually less expensive items that are around $1,000. Most of the excuses revolve around job losses or health issues…but that’s usually code for bidder’s remorse. It’s funny that most of the “job loss” and “health issue” people call up for future auctions and wonder why their bidding privileges have been disabled. We did have one bidder who did pass away and our consignor was fortunately very understanding.

I spoke with Goldin auctions and this situation is being worked on. Their accounting team should be contacting the OP....

Nice move by Leon, but in my opinion it never should have come to that.

I am glad no one take this post the wrong way.... "I won't deal with Goldin Auction again..."

I have consigned and bought from GA multiple times, no issues.
