Re: HELP Need some major Legal advice

I think your claim would be for the estimated sale price less fees that would have been payable. As the items appear to have been stolen by an employee and the auction house appears to have been negligent then there is an argument for not allowing for the deduction of fees.

The reserve price is only a 'do not sell below' price.

The insurance valuation is not what the items were expected to achieve at sale.

If you are issuing proceedings then you must issue for the two rings as it is the same incident.

Re: HELP Need some major Legal advice

Hi, I not sure what you mean, what is the estimated sale price, how do we know what they could have sold for if they had not been stolen.? I have had all the paperwork scanned over to you. I would be very grateful if yourself or Diana could ring me and explain. Diana has my mobile and landline numbers. I cannot ring for the reason Diana knows about.

Does the fact that they were negligent (as stated in police report ) not mean anything???

Re: HELP Need some major Legal advice

You will have received a document headed something like Pre sale Advice which would have described the item being auctioned , provided a reserve price and then stated an estimated price.

I think the negligence would mean that you would not have to deduct the fees. The estimated price is the value that the rings were expected to achieve at auction.

Re: HELP Need some major Legal advice

No, all I have is the Reserve price in the column under Estimate is MIN.

Re: HELP Need some major Legal advice

I was hoping you could represent me in court (I asked Diana about this but no one ever came back to me). but you obviously are not interested as you have all the paperwork and can see clearly what is on the Auction Authorisation and Receipt Form. Thank you

Re: HELP Need some major Legal advice

Why did Diana get me to scan all that confidential paperwork to you when no one came even be bothered to phone me for the free initial advice????????

Re: HELP Need some major Legal advice

I am very upset about this I have been waiting weeks for a reply, Diana has emailed me again and again stating she would phone, but this has never happened. What a waste of my time!!!!!!

Please remember that everyone who contributes on here is a volunteer and does not make any money from posting. Many also have jobs to do and lives of their own to lead as well- I am sure if Di says she will phone you she will when she gets a minute.

EDITED out- I was too harsh- sorry

I am a fine one to talk , I want it all and I want it now

We have spoken a couple of times but as you are aware there has been a problem with your phone number 'talking' to our phone number.

I believe this has now been resolved.

You've not wasted any time
