Warning to bid by Schuler auctions Zürich

Hello Detlef,

It is not only Schuler auctions. It happened to me too often with auction houses from US and Europe alike. Sometimes I paid the hugely inflated shipping bill. In some other instances, I managed to negotiate a better price or I found myself another service provider who gave me a better price. Unfortunately, there were several situations when I simply left my item with the auction house to put it on sale again.

PS: I once even went to the US only to pick up my lots. I went there Friday and returned Sunday..
