Had to go with a certified shipper at much higher cost.
Good company. They were responsive to my questions. My mistake was buying wine in hot weather. Had to ship 2 day at high expense or say goodbye to wine if shipped via ground. My mistake … not Hughes

This is not the quality firm it was when they had stores in Los Angeles and Pasadena
I called to make arrangements to pick up a vintage waffle maker that I had purchased. I drove over 20 miles to a barely discernible location in the "Garden Spot of America", Sunland! When I arrived, the facility was so poorly marked that I could barely find it. When I did, I knocked on the door, and no one answered. I called the number on the invoice, and the same woman I had spoken to earlier (who assured me that they would be there) seemed confused and totally without a clue! She supposedly said that there would be no one available, and I said WHY didn't she tell me that before!! In any case, I told this genius that I was not not about to make another 40 plus mile round trip and if they wanted to complete the sale, they would have to ship it to me at their expense as I had already gone beyond reason to pick it up! Continuing to sound totally clueless, I told her to be sure and relay that message! I don't think she ever did!! I have bought some great items from Hughes in the past, but this current operation is basically useless!!

misleading information
The description stated there was a cord that came with the waffle iron. When my items arrived, the cord was not in the package. I contacted the auction and received a quick reply stating that there was an error in the statement as the lot did not come with a cord. The pictures did not show a cord. I am disappointed and will now have to find and purchase a cord for this 1932 era waffle iron.

I am so sorry for the missing cord. We do not have the cord, so I have just issued you a full refund for Lot 23 as well as half of the shipping costs. You can keep the waffle iron set and keep looking for a cord if you wish. I was out of town over the Thanksgiving holiday when your email came in and had a miscommunication with our employee about how to handle it. We would have normally issued a refund right away. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience. Liz Liz Hughes, MFA Owner Hughes Auctions office 626-791-9700 mobile 323-547-0681HughesAuctions.com

High Shipping Costs
Thought the shipping (25 $for a 15 $item) should be posted an known so bidders can decide. I have always enjoyed the online auction bidding. I did not know that after the online bidding, the items go live, and if you don't happen to be available, you lose. I did get a text but the timeframe was pretty inaccurate, so I missed out on bidding-plus that was a whole different process that I could not do in time on my phone.

The folks at Hughes were great. I went to pick up my artwork and it was about 2 inches too big to fit in my Civic. They brought it to my house that afternoon for a very reasonable fee, with excellent communication throughout. Friendly people.
