McTear's Opiniões 

CAVEAT EMPTOR l was never given either estimates or valuations on my first bargain basement sale of a few original art deco items, all flung in at £20 a pop ...Xmas for some dealers - as well as doing this without informing me, as l would have withdrawn a few item, especially the superb glass/brass ceiling light, subsequently valued at circa £180-350 and some deco glass vases, about £35-70 each. l was told in writing all these items dumped into the £20 bracket as they were not Deco. They belonged to someone who was known to experts, eg such as BBC drama producers, for owning a 100% Deco living room in which they would film. l have no legal recourse. But l am happy to put a case together if anyone is offended. l have a witness to the statement made before collection, but l assumed the statement would be sent/emailed in writing to me as accepted then that these were reputable auctioneers. Caveat emptor.
PS I have spoken with Michelle and further detailed items which were indeed sent for the above sale to me but minus any estimates of price. I still have this letter. I stupidly assumed the Deco items had not yet been appraised and estimated. I was wrong. That £20 PER ITEM LOT went on sale without any attempt to appraise me of that low low low estimate per item. Obviously the most original collector's Deco item even then although estimated at only £20 went for over £100, proof enough that this was a silly unrealistic £20 estimate of its true value. As the item was incorrectly described I assume genuine Deco collectors were not alerted, ipso facto some dealer had a very good deal that day! During my discussion with Michelle, I was unable to discuss the finer points of the Art Deco buying world, as she is a Director of the company.

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 ,

Excellent end to end service and very flexible during these difficult times!

McTears did not inform me that the paintings were slightly damaged, where paint had rubbed off decades previously. I also sensed afterward that I paid far too much for these two lots.
