Just to be clear, I posted this FYI in a thread about what to consider when buying at Christie’s auctions (and when buying at auctions in general) and it was moved here. It is not my intention to malign Christie’s at all, it was intended as a FYI/warning to those who are new to buying at auction like I was; the terms and conditions are totally different than when buying on a website or ebay. It is my fault for not reading the fine print in the terms and conditions and assuming that there was a guarantee that the condition would match the photos. The terms and conditions explicitly state that is not the case and that it is the buyer’s responsibility to personally inspect the item prior to purchase.

I think It's clear from your posts and we are agreeing, I didn't mean to blame you or shame you for not reading the small print, I was saying it's totally understandable in these times. Many buyers at these auctions don't even realise they will pay a 20-25-30% buyer's premium until they're asked to pay.

Thank you PT, I hope I didn’t come across as being argumentative with you, I just wanted to be very clear that this is not meant as a bad review and wasn’t posted as such (was not posts in this thread), but just a general FYI/warning to those new to buying at auction. Also an excellent point to be aware of the additional buyer’s premium as well.

I have had two very positive buying experiences. One with Rebag and another with fashionphile. Both items arrived quickly and were better than expected. Unfortunately I have had a negative experience selling with Ann’s Fabulous Finds. I think she might perhaps be getting too busy and communication is very poor. It amounted to a substantial financial loss for me on an item that she sold on my behalf.

ThIS is the first time I've heard FB citing poor communication with Ann.
I have utilized her services a lot over the years with success and couldn't be more thrilled. Sometimes our bags do not net what we think that they are worth.

If you would like to hear the details privately please let me know. Poor communication is my primary concern. I have also experienced good service from them in the past. So this change is unexpected. Ann’s seems to be growing and there seems to be quite a bit of confusion there at the present time.

I am sorry to hear this but glad that you posted. I have 2 VCA and a Cartier item in a box ready to ship to Ann’s. Perhaps I should reconsider.
