Better than described..
The two watches I won at auction are in better condition than I anticipated. I'm sitting here looking at both of them keeping excellent time. It only took new batteries and a tiny bit of coaxing, and they were off and running.. very happy with these watches!

Used recommended shipper for Mark Lawson, all items arrived smashed. Auctioneer never returned calls
Absolutely horrid experience with several thousand dollars of antiquities. All arrived smashed, shipper was recommended by auction house, they admitted responsibility and then said they would not pay for damages. Still now 3 months later, I've received no call back from Mark Lawson, have received no compensation for totally destroyed items. UPS unwilling to work with receiver directly must have cooperation from shipper, but shipper totally AWOL. I would never again buy from this auctioneer or use Milton Pack and Ship. Horrendous customer service. All phone calls to auctioneer go directly to voicemail, never returned. They have their money, they don't care.

Very poor "after auction" communication.
After an initial mix up with shipping, the auctioneer did not reply to ANY of the resultant emails I sent, or phone message left, regarding what was 'now' happening with my won item. It was six long weeks after the auction that I eventually received my won item, but have/had never heard back from any of the messages left or emails sent to the auctioneers (of what had happened to my item in the interim).

If you bid on a lot of auctions as I do it gets confusing when I have to contact third parties to handle the shipping. I prefer auction houses that offer in-house shipping like this one. My experience with this auction house was a good one.

Good transaction; faulty description.
The transaction went well; the people at Mark Lawson are nice to deal with and the shipping also went well. My only beef is the stone in the ring was damaged which is why I am giving a three-star rating.
