Now, I understand that Morphy's or RIA or anyone else is not running a charity, but it seems like they are giving their customer a rough ride. That being said, who is their customer? The consignor or the purchaser?
That's one reason why I probably will not sell at auction, there are plenty of fine dealers that will advertise and sell your gun for 10 to 15%. If I am a seller at an auction I know the buyers are subtracting 20 to 26% from my price plus what I am paying the auction house I won't even get close to top dollar for my guns.
