I sent goods for their "July auction" but no such auction has occurred. I did not receive a consignment agreement promised a month ago. Has anyone else sent goods to Midwest Auction gallery for the "July auction" this summer? Has anyone else sent goods and then then not been able to make contact with them again re the status of the goods? After reading your posts, I think I may have been defrauded. The statute of limitations for Fraud, is 6 years Mich. Comp. Laws § 600.5813. I am considering bring an action in either state or federal courts, based on fraud and conversion of my goods. If anyone else is similarly situated please contact: susanbfentress@gmail.com
Did anyone else send goods to MidWest for their "July Auction" that did not occur? Has anyone sent goods to Midwest Auction and then not received any info about the goods again? If so contact susanbfentress@gmail.com
Clearly you are a new victim. I am very disappointed by Michigan government. Midwest auction is a scam house now and Michigan government does nothing even we complained to General Attorney Office. It doesn't matter that your lots sold or not, you will get neither your consignment nor money back.
I realize laws are different in each state. Here is what happened in my county in Ohio. They have not been tried yet. After this article was in the paper more people came forward and additional charges were filed. http://www.journal-news.com/news/news/auctioneers-scammed-people-out-of-money-prosecutor/nmY8Z/
