He's probably paid well. I bet he makes between $1000 and $100,000 per year.

Great info, thank you!

My job/work travel is bringing me down I-40 today, and again on Friday.

Well, he has my full respect, and with that and a dollar he could maybe get a Coke.

I am attending the NC show so I thought it would be convenient to make absentee bids and pick up any lots that I won on Saturday. They would not accommodate me, so I canceled the bids and that is that. What a difference compared with Steve Stanton, who will do just about anything to assist a buyer. And not charge 30%, either.
