The auction house guy, Dave Marshall told me the gun actually sold for less than I bid! Now that truly takes nerve! Jerry

I smell BS. Hang in there Jerry.

I agree with Ed make them sweat..:cuss: Eric

My attorney just sent the paperwork to me he received back from Allen & Marshall. I have the name of the guy who bought the gun. He did get it for $100.00 under my bid. This appears to simply be a very poorly run auction, one I won't ever bid in again. Jerry

What's next Jerry?

I would need to hire an attorney in Maryland to pursue this any further. I'm not sure it's worth it, I have no idea how the courts would handle this or how it would be viewed in a court of law. Any Maryland attorneys out there with any ideas? Jerry

Save your time and your money! Other then hurt feelings, you have no real damages, Lot's of guns out there--forget this one! I've been burned in a couple of these types of auctions. I don't bid anymore, unless I'm there or I have someone there bidding for me.

Pretty much my thoughts on this issue. You can spend your money and make more money but if you spend your time you are NOT getting that back. Jerry

Jerry: Don't get mad, just GET EVEN! There are ways that will cost them dearly. One is, refer them to this thread!
