Most of the people at their auctions are local, whether it's live or online, and I don't know how many are going to feel comfortable bidding on things they can't go see.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the case of the china cabinet my husband and I are interested in it'd make a big difference if the finish was borax or veneerite.
