Re: Grey Flannel basketball auction

Don't let these auction companies fool you telling you it is to "save money in fees". The main reason is explained by rose14.

Personally I would never buy something of high value (over 100.00) without a credit card. Where is the security for the buyer ?

How many stories on here are from buyers from certain auction houses that have been passed on fake or doctored items ?

If you pay by a MO or Cashiers Check how will you recover the funds ?

ANSWER

You won't

well the issue from their perspective is you pay for the item they pay the consignor you get a chargeback after that point now they are out the cash. People could get chargebacks for stuff that is not for a bad item but just because the buyer is being overly picky or has remorse. With auction houses it is caveat emptor if you are spending big bucks you must`be totally sure before you bid. If it means hoping a plane even to inspect an item in person so be it.
