How was Donley's Hazelcorn Auction?

[Granby]

Understood.

I followed the machines sold on the first day and only saw one that was passed, the outside horn Vitaphone, they couldn't get $1k bid, mostly new parts, nice shelf queen.

Chuck I think that was on day 2.

I believe that all machines were sold as it was a no reserve auction. I’m not sure why proxybid lists many lots as passed, it must be a glitch in their system.

Auction Zip went down during day one at least once for 20 -30 minutes. It was not the most reliable platform. When Auction Zip doesn't get interactive data - like when they go down - they put "passed" in place of the real data. Go to live auction, which has the complete sold data.

I bid and won several items on Sunday. Via online. They were shipped Tuesday . Don't like the 20% buyers fee but knew it going in.

My box from the Donley auction arrived this morning. It was my first experience with the Donley auctions, and I wrote it up with pictures here:

I have purchased several times from Donley’s by phone bid and never had a problem. This was my first experience attending their auction in person and it was very well run and professionally done. One reason for my attendance in person was so that I could pick up a very large Victor sign that I had purchased by phone bid a few weeks earlier. They are a class act.

I have participated in 5 or 6 of the Donley Auctions, once as a phone bidder the rest in person, including the recent Hazelcorn Auction, the customer service and professionalism is excellent. There was an honest mix up on a machine that I had won, but somehow the machine was posted on someone else's bill and they were actually the backup bidder, the other bidder and myself worked everything out , but Randy was alerted of the mix up and immediately came over to make sure all parties were satisfied, offering to have us watch the video , which was not necessary, but I was impressed that they video the auctioneer for occasions just like that.

This is the first time I participated in one of their auctions and I feel it went very well.
I bought 3 items on Sat. And 2 on Sun.
I feel that they were very professional .
I will follow them from now on and follow other selling methods a lot less .
