[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 335262, member: 88"]I think he is cutting off his nose to spite his face. I go to the same type of auction house & Bill routinely laments that he does not get what he use to a few years back. However, if he cut out all glass, pottery & furniture his auctions would last about 30 minutes at best. He has always taken whole estates which routinely includes plenty of the above items. He does make sure the family or the person consigning the items understands that some items that would have sold extremely well now just barely sell. However if he did not sell everything he wouldn't have anyone in attendance either to buy the really cool jewelry, sterling, coins art work, furniture, etc. that they also consign.[/QUOTE]
