I am interested in talking to anyone whose institution uses on-line auctions as a way to increase collections (museum and archival). Why do you use on-line auctions, what kind of experiences have you had, do you purchase exclusively from specific on-line auction(s) (i.e. E-Bay, or Sotheby's, etc), does your institution have a written policy concerning on- line auctions, and anything else you may believe to be helpful. Thank you. LNK ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
