And I am 100% in agreement with Helmut's wise and fully correct observations toward corporate need for profits and while Heritage may want the bar to rise as far as the quality of their offerings, I think they're fine with the Sunday auctions and BP earnings they take from them...guaranteeing $19 per lot and up with better material.
I am not on any side here as I use all sites that offer goods I'm into but Bruce's model is one that is more in tune with my lefty sympathies. He's running more weekly material through Missouri than the Dallas folks an he is able to pay his people via his consignment fees. His staff also seem to be a little more informed and on the ball. Corporations tend to increase profits by hiring temps and such and like a bit of turnover so raises aren't needed. It creates a less pleasant situation for human interaction and getting real answers rather than lack of knowledge or some scripted corpspeak. That's just how I see it. I'd love to feel different.

We all resent rising prices, but Heritage is just one of millions of business experiecing rising costs. that may well be true, but the problem lies elsewhere: Like any other corporation, Heritage is determined to make MORE money every year. With Grey Smith, the Heritage Corporation has a very friendly face, but don't let that fool you: Like any other corporation, they do not care about you, me or anybody else, all they care about is MORE MONEY. The word 'enough' does not exist in the capitalist vocabulary, neither do any kind of moral values.
