Very nice to deal with. A plus was I was able to pick up my item because we live in the same area. If he puts something that up catches my eye again, I will bid again.

Items damaged upon shipping owner was unprofessional
When contacting the company about a damaged item the owner contacted me back and the whole conversation was me listening to him explaining the excuses as to why my issue was ‘ not a big deal ’ one of the items I received had partially fallen out of the lamp shade package (they ran out of appropriate Gun size shipping boxes) and the barrel of this historic black powder weapon was damaged. So I then have to take photos of the packaging and send them to him which he never gave me an email or working phone number to do this. I not have a item I want to return as it was not in the same condition due to no fault of my own as I had won it.. the disrespect and lack of consideration for the historical value and care of the items his greedy self Indulgent business owner displays is disgusting and a true stain and burden on the industry. I am still waiting for his email and contact info to send him the photos of the packages.. Buyer beware this company needs to improve how it handles historical items and the owner could use some serious humility when dealing with customers …

I am put off by your review. I told you to send photos of the damaged packaging as UPS expressly requires the packaging be examined by a UPS claims representative for any insurance claim. You never sent pictures, and then admitted you had discarded the damaged box. That eliminated any chance for a UPS claim, I still extended you the option of returning the gun to me for a refund or having the little brass thimble reattached at my expense. That was the ONLY damage, an inconsequential inch long brass tube had been dislodged from the underside of the barrel. It could be soldered back in place in five minutes. It did not affect the value of the percussion fowler in the least. I had no problem accepting the gun back, it was fine. I heard nothing from you, and now many months later you post a ranting hateful review. Your review is untruthful... You have my email and phone numbers on every document generated by Live Auctioneers, yet you claim you couldn't contact me or my office. Your post sounds like an angry email someone writes after consuming too many adult beverages. Hmmm? We will take you off the approved bidders list and solve this problem.

Excellent for hard to find antique arms. Fair estimates, Easy to bid online.
Excellent coverage of Antique arms. Well described, enough pictures focusing on the right shots to allow absentee buyers confidence in bidding. Ability to follow bids on items you want to win before the auction starts. Fast shipping within U. S. A. As a foreign buyer will ship to a nominated FFL company for onward shipping by them.

Dave Taylor did a excellent job on description and delivery. Live Auctions did poor job billing.
Dave Taylor did an excellent job on description and delivery. In fact, I think he under described the gun. He was very helpful with my questions. But I was very disappointed with Online Auctions. They doubled the charges buy automatically charging my credit card even though I had already sent a check directly to Dave Taylor and it had been deposited in Taylors account. What was bad about it is that I could not reach Online Auctions by phone. It seems Online Auctions cannot be reached by phone. What's that about? My e-mails took a long time to get answered. I needed to get this done before my billing period because my credit card limit would have been exceeded. Luckily, we made it buy one day. I am not a techy I am a cash person and not being able to call a company with problems makes me very uncomfortable. With that in mind I am very tentative in working with Online Auction in the future.

Firearm Operational Status
Seller holds a good auction and has a reasonable return policy if you are dissatisfied. Seller was slow to respond to e-mail questions/inquiries. Shipping rates were very fair.

Fair Honest knowledgeable Dealer
I have never been so happy to make a major purchase as I am with Dave Taylor, he sells nothing but the real thing with fast and fair shipping as a matter of fact you know the shipping price before you purchase. That combined with no anxiety as to what you will receive. What you see is what you get and what you get is the Genuine article. My only complaint is that he doesn't have an auction every week. Thank you Dave looking forward to your next auction.

Civil War Dave is a terrible communicator
Dave Taylor is unhinged, yelling at me on the phone. This auctioneer doesn't respond to emails and provides phone numbers that ring through to no voicemail. He must still be living back in the 1800s as this is not how modern commerce operates. Would not recommend.

This bidder bounced a check for over $1, 300.00 a month ago and then claimed he could not reach our office no matter how hard he tried over the next three weeks. Lies and excuses tend to make me angry. He is blocked from bidding.

I have no idea what is referring to. He bid on two buttons, paid for them, and received them weeks ago.
