With its extremely poor website previews, unremarkable lots, and dilapidated building, Love's has gained a reputation for being out-of-step with the times. All of these features can be attributed to sloth and being miserly. A completely ineffectual website will direct you to the mountains of unremarkable antique brown furniture, threadbare rugs, and cheap china all of which is about as valuable as a small stack of kindling. They also liquidate property from businesses that have become insolvent, so if you require a well used walk-in freezer, faeces contaminated bar stools, or a 100 litre pizza dough mixer, this should be your first port of call. The building is ramshackle, and dearly in need of maintenance. The property is strewn with garbage. Parking during public viewings is horrific. Love's hasn't been a serious contender for over a decade, and it's telling when you see the building, and view the lots. For the uninitiated, they might think that they're getting a bargain by placing bids on the clapped-out, mostly damaged lots here, but when you factor in the 20% buyers premium-and the fact that most neophytes overbid at auctions when faced with competition-you will quickly discover that better bargains are now to be found on Craigslist. I wouldn't waste my time on this one.

Walked down a long hall to find a person behind plexi at a desk area. She is yelling at a young girl, asking where she is going. For a break, the girl replied. No, you are not going for a break, woman replies. There were other people there and for me, if anyone spoke to me in that way, especially in front of customers, I would walk out. Very disrespectful towards staff. Gave my 7 original paintings with a print out of the history. This was NOT mentioned on the lots during bidding. It was not explained to me they would be sold in lots. All of this information is listed (in small print) on the BACK of the receipt that I signed. It should have been brought to my attention, before signing. I wasn't expecting a lot of money for these paintings, which by the way are very expensive, good quality and vintage, but $33 for 7 paintings is a total joke. I called twice to find out if my cheque was sent out and both times, was told, they are working on it. Finally today, I called and apparently, its being mailed today. I told the woman, how unprofessional and deceiving they were, she argued. Yes, they have no control on the bidding, however, if I had known they were being sold, IN LOTS. I wouldn't have bothered. Was also told today, that they only are interested in Canadian artists. My grandfather was a famous artist in Switzerland for his whole life. I am insulted, my family is insulted. These paintings were in my family for over 70 years. These people are shady, unprofessional and would not recommend and waste my time driving there.

I've been happily attending Maynard's auctions for 15 years, and am happy to add a bit of balance…read moreto a ridiculously skewed set of review data. Number one: All auction houses have a Buyers Premium on auctioned goods. This occurs without exception across the globe, as auction houses are not charitable institutions; they are businesses. At an auction, the goods will be sold to the highest bidder, and there is no guarantee that your goods will circumvent fundamentals, and sell at an appraised or retail level. In fact, unless the goods are highly coveted, you can be reasonably assured of a disappointing outcome. Given this, no auctioneer would give a guarantee on a positive outcome, but would venture a conjecture; something that you cannot take to the bank. Auctions serve the purpose of liquidating masses of goods quickly. If you feel slighted that the clapped-out tat you dragged down to the auction didn't generate a king's ransom, then this is only a confession of your naïveté. As an example, let's examine the sale of a Persian rug. Depending upon its pedigree, it isn't uncommon for a rug to sell at auction for a tiny fraction of its retail value. This is normal. If the rug was an Isfahan signed rug, it will sell for considerably more than the bazaar grade rug, but unless it is rare Isfahan rug, or several bidders go mad, it will never sell for more than the retail rate. The bottom dropped out of the antiques market a decade ago, and there is not even a hint that it will recover anytime soon. This means that the once highly coveted Scottish Victorian chest of drawers you bought for $2K at auction in the late 90s/early 2000s can barely be given away for $100 today. Lastly, and this should be painfully obvious, a little research will go a long way towards staving off disappointing outcomes. If a set of Noritake China sold for x amount of dollars at auction two months earlier, you can be certain that when you trot your set in that the audience will not spontaneously burst into a standing ovation when yours appears up for bids. Like the laws of Physics, common sense always prevails over infantile wish fulfillments.

If you fail to do your due diligence, don't blame the seller for selling something "as is where is" If you bought a bike and then complained after you bought it, obviously you didn't preview what you were buying. If you buy online without previewing then unhappy after, it's your own fault. Do you complainers not understand "as is where is" ? You choose to like the price but fail to do your homework. That your fault not the sellers. I buy from auctions often. I've been stung before and got great deals too. When buying from an auction you take your chances so do you homework or go buy from the mall at 150% mark up and then you've paid to have someone listen to your complaining !
