AUCTIONS IMPERIAL

Jim McDougall · 1st March 2008, 09:31 PM

On March 15, 2008 in Timonium, there will be the AUCTIONS IMPERIAL event, which though it unfortunately parallels our dinner that evening, is actually situated across the hall at the Crowne Plaza Hotel (formerly Holiday Inn).
Although I think this has posted elsewhere I wanted to make sure that everyone is aware and will have the opportunity to bid on the outstanding pieces catalogued.
The catalog itself is online www.auctionsimperial.com and information can be obtained rob@auctionsimperial.com phone +1 (323)851-2345

absentee bidding and other options information available online.

This catalog will be a great resource as the weapons are well described and cover a wide scope of weaponry and militaria.

All best regards,
Jim

Thats great Fernando! I've got one coming too. Actually the estimates and so on seem really reasonable and theres really an incredibly wide range of weapons.

All the best,
Jim

Hallo, does anybody knows who is behind Auctions imperial?
I mean, who are the owners and organisers? This auction is heavily advertised, and is so well prepared, however i have never heard this auction house before. They just have a PO box address. Have they contacted any other sale in the past?
Who made the description of the items?

I am also starting to have some fears about their profile.
For the first time in my life i have bided in an auction and, after such irreversible impulse, i saw symphtoms that the description of the articles might not be of the best faith, at least in one of the two items i have bided on. However, let's admit i should have known better what i was doing, so i give them the benefit of the doubt ... so far. Meantime what i've i heard through the grapevines about their reputation is not so favourable. I sincerly hope these are only rumours.
Nevertheless, after this first desilusion, i would love to be outbided and forget the whole thing

Everybody look here !!!
I have emailed the auctioners, constraining on the non conformity of the description of the item i had bided on, and immediately received their reply, proposing to remove the biding, which i accepted.
I here pay my respects to their atitude.
