Re: How to deal with an auction not working out as it should?

Thanks for the feedback

To be clear, this was not an eXxx auction, it was with one of the major US based dealers... almost two years ago exactly and I am sure you can guess who organizes auctions in January with lots of Soviet items...

If getting research was so easy, you'd think that the dealer would have gotten it himself by now - if not out of guilt or a sense of customer service than at least to get me off of his back. He offered to pay for it for me to get it but that's - in my eyes - turning things around... I already paid him to send it to me...

Will trigger the research now... will be nice if it turns out that the archives actually generate something...

Bob, from what I've heard, this dealer has little to no credibility left. As others have suggested, the simplest course of action is not to buy from him again. I hope the research works out for you.
