I placed a bid on line and won. When I arrived to pick up the item they indicated it was sold to someone else. They checked there system and it indicated it was sold to my paddle # but they also sold it for the same price on the phone and the item was picked up.

I deal with Iegor Auctions on a regular basis. So do many of my family, friends and clients. I couldn't recommend a better auction. I always get amazing pieces I cant find anywhere else. I feel like family when I deal with them. They are super kind and professional. I cant imagine looking elsewhere.

In my dealings with Iegor I have regularily seen them misrepresent what the paintings actually are about their age and condition. When I questioned them about this they dismissed my concerns with more false data. They are not trust worthy and neither is the art that they sell.

The website functionality needs improvement.
Not only paintings but the frames they come with ought to be shown
The online auction process is not explained any place I can find - what is the end date of a particular lot? Is there a seller's reserve possibly? Is at least a pretense of an identity of other legit bidders shown, or are we to simply to "accept on faith"...
They should look at the practices of other art auction houses to make well needed improvements.

This Montreal based auction house is less than reputable. It is known, amongst the dealers in Canada, to plant shill bidders in the live auction room to bid against its clients and drive prices beyond the fair market value.
This company also participates with third party online auction sites such as Liveauctioneers, www.liveauctioneers.com.
During the third party online bidding process, the numbers go beyond the expected outcome. Often times, the same items which have been sold via www.liveauctioneers.com and reintroduced on the auction house's own online bidding format.
Which brings me to my final statement - This auction houses online bidding site is suspect. Iegor Auction House is bidding against the clients who are interested in the goods they have on offer. They bid against the unsuspecting buyer to drive the prices beyond the fair market value of the work or natural bidding results.
This Auction house is simple a rip off establishment.
Beware.
