Please give your shipping / postage to someone who needs the work ,

I bought some fabric from the auction house ,they wouldn’t ship and said they recommend shipping companys on there web page ,I received a quote of £95 ,to post half a roll of fabric ,the item was only £55 to buy ,While I understand this is out of the Auction rooms hands but I question why you would recommend mailbox in the first place ,I went with another shipping company for half the price which is also recommended on there site ,in this environment why CARNT you employ someone to rap and ship for you ,I’m sure it wouldn’t be hard to give this to someone who needs the work ,rather than give it to these company’s who price themselves out of the market ,I for one would be delighted to know that my money is going to someone like that than these company’s ,Colin moran has been great he kept me informed of my deliver and was half the price ,he’s been professional and polite and helpful ,he should be at the top of the list ,I’ll be using him again when I buy from you ,

McTears simply don’t care

Under no circumstances should anyone consider this company. I have had two lots that didn’t sell and despite saying I would collect them they have given them away. This is despite saying they won’t. Terrible service and just don’t care.

I felt the items were poorly grouped…

I felt the items were poorly grouped and grouped in haste. I visited the showing on the day previous to the auction and discovered that one of my items had actually been added to another sellers items. It was rectified but with poor grace and no apology. Won't use Mctears again.
