A A HERBAUGH AUCTION SVC

The auctioneer took advantage of a little old lady the normal fees would have been much less especially if she was paying for the advertising. To ad insult to injury he failed to properly prepare all items in the house for sale leaving a score of household possessions that were not sold at auction, when confronted Mr. Herbaugh said those items were not worth his time. He was clearly only worried about the real property.  Of the personal items he got paid almost half of the take for advertising and "labor" charges that were not discussed before hand. Never Use this man we should have refused payment but my Grandmother just wanted the matter closed and over with.  You may say well my grandmother should have negotiated the deal better... there was no negotiation. In fact she was coerced into setting a low reserve price on the real estate because The auctioneer said he would not perform the service of the personal property if she didn't set a low reserve price on the real property.  He was not a trustworthy professional auctioneer.
