The Thomaston Place Auction Galleries experience
Recently, I had the opportunity to deal with Thomaston Place on a auction purchase. I was pleasantly surprised to find a most efficient operation when dealing with the public. Not only were they quick in authoring an invoice but, they provided a system to connect the client to the operating platform and the paying agency. I would use them again.
