    Too Good To Be True!!!
    Over the past 20 years I've attended no less than a thousand auctions in various cities across the country. I have found Federal Auction Service to be among the most unscrupulous auction houses out there. The only auctioneers I've found to have lower ethical standards would be Heritage Auctions Alberta Limited (license suspended in 2012). These people use all the tricks in the book, plus a few of their own with their shills, wildly inflated appraisals, misrepresentations of themselves and their merchandise, decoys (luxury lots that are meant to lure people to their auctions, with no intent to sell) as well as a few other tricks designed to deceive bidders. Barry O'Connell gets into more detail with just a few examples of schemes they have pulled off in the past, as well as some of the fines levied against them: http://oriental-rugs-persian-rugs.blogspot.ca/2009/03/avoid-short-notice-auctions.html Federal and Heritage Auctions are NOT sanctioned by any federal government; they are NOT members of the National Auctioneers Association; they are NOT members of the AAC; and they are NOT members of the Better Business Bureau. Their code of conduct is only their own. They take advantage of 'a lack of regulations' and count on 'buyers who are too embarrassed to come forward' in order to get away with their schemes. These auctioneers have been known to operate under several different business names, so beware of any short-notice auctions that give only one hour to preview. Buyer beware!

    Hard Working Staff at Federal Auction Service
    Federal Auction service staff works very hard to get the most effective price for the consigners. The staff at Federal Auction Service is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. They're going the extra mile to make sure the Consigner and Bidder have a good experience. I like to purchase and sell my items at Federal Auction Service.

    Great Federal Auction Service in Canda
    The service is impeccable and the staff is nicer! The collections are too much better than others auction houses of Canada, I bought lot of things in this Federal Auction Service. But, if you are in the market, I highly recommend Amir Durrani auctioneers.
