If you need to do business with this organization, have money fronted prior to releasing your items, or walk away.
I've dealt, on faith, with consignment shops before, and all went well. So I put faith into this organization. Mark and Naomi's facade was very accommodating, naturally, until it was time to pay.
They've signed contracts to sell hundreds of model trains - cars/engines, which brought in many buyers and thousands of dollars. But when time came to send my money, they played the ‘check is going out’ routine and went as far as to change phone numbers.
Again, they are sweet-as-pie to lure you in, and tell you whatever you want to hear. But when it is time to cut a check, look out!
Hmm, maybe that’s why Mark’s a fast talker.
Also, their 90 day payment policy is part of their corruption - to hold your money as long as possible. Their 15% take is another part of their scam. A ‘carrot’.
I posted this review to WARN YOU. If you decide to follow thru with trusting them. I hope you consider this review CAREFULLY before doing business with them.
Get your money first! If they tell you payment upfront is not their policy, FIND ANOTHER AUCTION HOUSE.
Lastly, check BBB.org under New England Toy Train Exchange and see the billing complaints. Consignees waiting 6,7,8 months on a 3 month term. And their excuse is awaiting payment. An easy crutch to lean on.
Mark Tobia's phone has been changed, Don, Naiomi and the auction house doesn't answer phone or emails. Mailboxes are full to capacity. They owe me about 12K. Anyone knowing more info on this is encouraged to share. I concluded a week ago that I have been frauded. I am sure the warehouse is empty and vacated. Crooks!

One word to define this auction house - CORRUPT.
