I stumbled across the reviews of this auction house and I have to say that a couple of them don't…read moreknow what they are talking about. I have regularly attended sales at this gallery and also bid by phone. There has never been a "Kate" in their office as one person alludes to. The owner Mr. Lecuier is always professional and engaging. I have always been impressed with the quality and condition of their goods. If any deficiency in an item is present their catalog will describe it with photos. If I ever want to know more and can't get to their preview I call and ask questions and the staff, although no Kate, is always most helpful. As a long time auction bidder I have also had my bids get matched by an on site bidder and lose over the same amount. I really depends on how the bidding is running - to use Catherine E. example if I have the high bid at 420 and some one bids and is going up in 10 dollar increments then it is 430, my left bod or online bid goes to 440 the next bid is 450 but I am out. Even though my high bid was 450. I don't want the auctioneer to start with my 450 bid because I MIGHT get it for 420. Catherine sound less than experienced - next time bid by phone which I have also done here.

Terrible experience. I was charged $27.29 shipping plus $12.19 processing for a small watch, and…read moreafter weeks of emails and calls, I still got no real response. When the watch arrived, I opened the case back and found a note inside saying, "watch doesn't work, shit can." That was never disclosed. Excessive fees, terrible communication, and very misleading item description.

Unbelievably unprofessional do not recommend anyone to do business with this man. Purchased items…read morefrom an auction, auction closed, paid in full. Pickup was stated to be a couple weeks later. I call Thursday morning before pickup (pickup is on Saturday) no on answers I leave a message. No one returns my call so I call Saturday the morning of pickup and leave another message. I get a call back and they state the pickup day was two weeks prior however website was not updated. They inform me they don't know if they have my items that they will have to look for them. I reach back out today to follow up on my items and have to leave a message again. Wes Manger calls me back incredibly rude stating he can't drive but I can get them after the fourth. I kindly ask if I could come pickup the items where he begins to raise his voice and remind me he can't drive, asking me what world do I live in, etc. He then refused to let me get my items and said he was going to refund me. I do not recommend ANY business who berates their paying customers. Take your business elsewhere.

By far the worse auction company I have did business with. I bought two rugs that were stained…read morewith what appeared to be dog feces, smelling of urine. The photo for the auction had been intentionally manipulated with an old camera trick. Put bright lights above an object, use your camera flash and the object will appear much lighter, disguising the stains on the rugs. The other items I bought had photos taken at angles to disguise the damages as well. Very poor way to conduct business.
