So...what do you guys think Seth can do to make his auction better? He's asking his buyers how to please us, but instead we just make this thread about bickering. Let's try to give him the advice he asked for...

Probably not realistic anymore in this generation, But;
If there was NO online bidding and NO overseas buying, the Auction house would be full everytime, regardless of the Buyers premium being charged. And all items would be carried out THAT day with no shipping to worry about.
Ahh, The Good Old Days!

A mailer is going out tomorrow to all those that have requested here & via e-mail, ALSO to all of those that were on the previous auction mailing list (around 10,000). I also got contacted with some more consignments that will while not oil & gas primarily, will for sure spice things up, pin-ball machines, coin-op rides, payphone booth, etc...stay tuned!

Seth,
Maybe you already do this, but have you approached any motels and resturants in the area about giving a discount to people attending the auction? Maybe that would help get more people to attend, or stay an extra day. I know motels in my area do that for big events.

Been getting tons of calls of the mailer....had an unannounced 20 globes show up today!! That makes me feel great as for the first time in a long time, I didn't have much in the way of globes to sell. Here are a few of the 20 that showed up today:
