The auction went very well, a little problem with Wausau communication after I had sent sales tax exemption and bank letter the day before the auction. I think too much paperwork in short period of time and I'm sure it will work out ok.

The last auction i was a part of went smooth. What I don't like is the confusion between the auction web-site and what happens on equipmentfacts. Do you have a separate contract. The auction web-site will state no reserve. I am also confused about the %'s. Some places charge both onsite and online at pickup. Which is it?

Needs to be alot quicker on the numbers if people can't make up thier mind on buying a machine then that's on them I could of got of got the machine I purchased for 2k less if the auctioneer wouldn't of favored the locals by giving them a long opportunity to make up thier mind if they were in or not. Going once going twice sold end of story not Mr. So and so did you still want in? Come on!

I bid on two seperate side by side lots, everything went ok with the bidding process. However, when I finished bidding on the first item, there was a pop-up on my screen asking me to complete a questionaire on my bidding experience. I found it difficult to make the pop-up go away so that I could bid on the second item in the next lot. I was able to buy both lots, so no harm done, but please do not send prompts like that during the auction.

The Equipment Facts part was ok other than multiple times of lost audio. After the auction the Royal Auction Group has been horrible to try to deal with as they do not respond to calls, or emails. I have been trying to get an updated invoice from them and confirm wire information and they are non responsive. I will not be participating in any of their auctions going forward. Thanks.
