This Auction House is Professional
I’ve purchased from Michaan’s Auctions before with good success. This purchase was another success, so I am happy to recommend them to other bidders. Michaan’s is one of the best. Not so with auction houses such as Lodestar and Neal where the experiences with those were very poor.

Accurate Item Description
Having an accurate description of an item is so important for on-line bidders/buyers that cannot see the item in person. This auction house provided an accurate description so there was no disappointment after the sculpture arrived.
