I bought a lot of watchmaker's tools and parts and when it was picked up by a friend of mine, Stroud auctions had put some of the boxes which had come open and had spilled out into the plastic bag they had roughly dumped them into upside down, with no care for the parts which have very delicate pivots, etc. Some parts were broken and damaged, because quite obviously they didn't care once they had their money. Total idiots, as far as I'm concerned, with no regard to the goods or the packing/storage after the sale. I won't be putting any more business their way with this kind of cavalier attitude!
