Friendly, professional, and responsive. I had (still working on) an issue with a shipper who damaged an item I won.

Unfortunately, Neal wasn't in but that gave me the opportunity to meet Randy Donley and John M who handled all of our consignment inventory. I truly appreciate the genuine, honest, upfront and respect they showed to myself and our consignments and it was probably some of the best conversations I've had in a long time. Thank you for everything and I look forward to recommending you and working with...
