Well run auction house
Although I live locally and was able to pick up the item in person, I did not have an opportunity to attend a pre-view of the auction. Fortunately, the photos and description were 100 % accurate, and I would purchase from them again and recommend them to others. Overall, I had a positive experience with Michaan's Auctions.
