From The "Ask David Horowitz" column in the October, 2010 issue of Costco Connection Magazine:

"We used a well-known and reputable on-line auction site to sell a famous sports team's playing jersey. A bidder purchased the jersey for $ 777.00. We were to be paid within a month. We never received our payment, despite having shipped the jersey. We contacted the auction company and were told by an executive that there was an oversite, and we would be paid in full per their user agreement. However, this was the last we heard from the company. What are we to do ?"
Anthony and Mary,
Las Vegas, Nevada

David Horowitz responds:

I asked Anthony and Mary to call the auction company, then send a certified letter to the company showing my involvement and demanding they get their money within ten days lest we further investigate the company and reveal information they may not want to come to light, and/or publicize what has happened to the sellers. The on-lione auction company, despite claiming that they had no record of the sale, was ultimately able to find the record. It then worked out an agreement with the sellers. The auction company will pay Anthony and Mary $ 100.00 per month from August through December, and an additional $ 277.00 in January, 2011."
