Re: AMI payments
So, how does this make anything faster? It doesn't say how quickly it will be deposited after the auction closes. If they deposit right after the auction, that's one thing, but this promotion tells us nothing.Thank you,

Re: AMI payments
If you give someone the information needed to wire money into an account, have you also given them the information that is needed to wire money out of the account?Comment

Re: AMI payments
I had an associate who is owed money from AMI tell me they emailed him offering him to consign items to the next auction and he would receive payment directly from the customer and AMI would deduct their fees from the money owed to my associate.
So if he sold a $100 item he would be paid the full price (plus shipping since he would ship the item himself and the buyer's premium) and AMI would in turn deduct the buyer's premium and seller's premium from the money owed to him.Comment

Re: AMI payments
Yes. Its the same info.
If you owe them money, legally they can pull money from your account up to the amount that you owe. However, I think that is only if you've given them permission to withdrawal money in the first place.
However, if they owe you and you owe them nothing; legally they cannot pull money out of your account. That is theft.SCOTT

Dear Stephen Smith:
We, as many other businesses, have become adversely affected by the economic downturn. We are aware that there has been a delay of payments for your consignments and for this we truly apologize. Due to staff downsizing and upcoming deadline schedules, our availability on the phones has been scarce. However, we are returning phone calls. It has been difficult to answer everyone’s calls when we did not have answers ourselves . We will make every effort to be more available in the future.
Our intention is to continue the excellent business practices we have enjoyed for over 13 years and we have devised a plan to do just this. We command the best prices and the best authentication process in the industry and continue to do so.
Immediate action has been taken to reconcile your account. American Memorabilia has come up with a solution in which we would invite you to work with us so we can build our auctions back into a profitable adventure for all. Please accept this proposal as a way for American Memorabilia to make you whole. We have asked many consignors to help us with this solution and all feel that the solution is sound and will actually be to the benefit to all for future payment practices.
American Memorabilia will be using the buyer’s premium and any consignment fees we would normally incur to pay off your account.
Proposed Payment Plan Process:
- <LI class=MsoNormal>You will be set up as authorized dealer of American Memorabilia Inc. The authorized dealer will be explained to our bidders, letting them know that items denoted by the Authorized Dealer icon will be paid directly to seller of the memorabilia. That this entity or person has been deemed by American Memorabilia authorized to sell his merchandise through our system.
<LI class=MsoNormal>You will be consigning your items to American Memorabilia, however, items will not leave your possession until they are paid to you by the bidder into your PayPal account.
<LI class=MsoNormal>You will log the items into your authorized dealer account. Photos, descriptions, authentication, shipping will be handled by you. We will assist in this entire process. We will be available to help you write the descriptions and edit your photos. Once your account has been reconciled to your satisfaction, you will be able to send your items to American Memorabilia, where we will be able to photograph, authenticate, and ship the items, however, your payments will still be set up to go directly into your PayPal account.
<LI class=MsoNormal>Items must be authenticated. Authentication accepted will be PSA, JSA, UDA, Steiner to name a few. You will be able to send in items to get authenticated and we will send them back to you after the process has been completed as an option.
<LI class=MsoNormal>We will be setting up the payments to go directly into your PayPal account.
<LI class=MsoNormal>All money including the buyer’s premium and any consignment fee normally charged will go directly to you.
<LI class=MsoNormal>You will ship the items directly to buyer and you will be able to keep buyer info rmation.
- The additional money paid to you will be deducted from the money owed to you.

Re: AMI payments
Let's see:
You send an item in to AMI.
They auction it and get paid by the buyer.
They spend the consignment fee, the buyer's fee, and YOUR money.
Now they want you to help them,
pay you back,
your money,
that they stole.
.................................................. ................................................
Your auction proceeds were NOT their's to spend in the first place.
Bottom line, these people are thieves.
