I want to publicly praise Michael Orenstein & Alan Lipkin for the spring 2001 Superior Space Memorabilia auction. As most of you know Michael is now "top dog" at Superior. I think some the the changes instituted in the last few months have vastly improved this auction.The online catalog was light years ahead of previous efforts. Much easier to view & "window shop". The online bidding feature, even though it has a quite few bugs yet to be worked out (might be ebay's problem though, not Superior's), is a positive step in the right direction.
Michael & Alan were both helpful in resolving problems both before & after the auction. First rate service, which I hope will continue.
On a personal note one of my items was mis-listed. Michael bent over backwards to accommodate my wishes to correct the error.
I know some of you don't like Michael, but maybe y'all should reevaluate your opinions & give Michael & Superior a second chance. I give this last auction a grade of B+. I think it might grade an A next auction. (No I'm NOT working for Superior & Michael knows nothing of this post)
Hey gang, how were your experiences, both as sellers & as buyers?
