Coys have been in administration before, well about 15 years ago.
There is a thread somewhere here on this forum.
They were very slow in paying out money in recent times again.
So the writing was on the wall.
As always, the unwary punters, the first time sellers get caught up in this,
reeled in by the adertising
Unfortunately,
if selling through a dealer
or an auction house
always do a background check
before handing over Your cherished piece of kit
I got burned as well once,
by a reputable dealer in my case
lots of advertising
and I had done a lot business with him
never mind, live and learn
a painful experience,
and it still makes me angry
but a reasonable amount
could have been much worse
