I left in mid-September. I wonder if they've got through another auctioneer since then, or just failed to fill the vacancy.
I do keep half an eye on their auctions just in case there's anything there I fancy, but nothing has changed much by the looks of things. A couple of fairly low key sellers with a few lots a week, some headline coins that never come anywhere near the reserve, some safe gold. Generally 15-25 lots a week. I found it a very odd place to work - they were far more interested in number of lots processed per hour than any semblance of genuine expert assessment, let alone building long lasting relationships with sellers, which is what they really needed. They never quite got the idea that if you're running a coin auction, it's the sellers who are putting the show on, not the auction house. Treat your stallholders well, because without them, you're just a half empty village hall on a wet Sunday afternoon
I always got the feeling that they thought they knew best, and that the sellers were a bit of a nuisance.
To be fair though, I've been self-employed since 2004, so I'd probably be a bit of a handful for any employer! Better off being a Lone Ranger now...
