Really terrible. Do not trust them with your belongings or your money! He lied when I asked him about my sale items and he hadn’t catalogued all my items against my details. In other words he would sell my items and keep the money not just from Thursday sale but also from Saturday sale. He told me he wouldn’t put any perishable items outside on Thursday sale if it was raining. I went along to check and I’ll my delicate items were in torrential rain. Had been raining non stop since day before. So he put them out while it was raining. Silk screen prints, books, wooden furniture with fabric

This auction house is the best in Edinburgh. The reason is not because it has the best items per say, but it's items that are actually affordable. Other auctions in town require minimum bids of £300-400+. We've been going to this auction for over a year now. I've filled our two-bedroom flat with antiques and I encourage all of my friends to never purchase from stores and only buy from here!
