Buyer Beware of Paul Brown and his Gallery 63 "Auction Kings" auction. After our experience today the only thing I can say is that Paul Brown is a sleazy jerk. He completely misrepresented an item during the bidding which induced us to bid on the item as well. We won the bid based on his representation of the retail value today at a store but when we got to take a closer look at the item, we discovered that the item was not even close to what was represented as it was a completely different model which sold new for 50% of our actual winning bid. We approached him immediately about this and were sure he just made an honest mistake in his representation. However, instead of admitting the misrepresentation (which was captured on camera) Paul ripped up our number and had us thrown out of the auction...unbelievable! He's a real pig and you obviously shouldn't trust a word out of his mouth... More unbelievably is that we had bought several other items and were not allowed to complete any of these transactions. He's obviously not the sharpest tool in the shed becasue the fees he stood to make off our purchases were more than the entire sales price of the misrepresented item...

After doing a bit of research today post being thrown out of the auction, I found a ton of negative reviews about Paul Brown and his "scamster" auction house Gallery 63. They charge 35% commission to the seller in addition to the 15% auction premium...which is NOT industry norm and only further established Paul Brown as a complete scumbag! Paul is truly as dumb as he sounds on camera and given his off camera antics won't last much longer...

Again, buyers beware of Paul Brown and Gallery 63!!!

Great show today! On today’s show Anderson's Auction, I saw Paul Brown; fire-off an old canon. This may appear to be strange, but my Great Grandfather had a canon from the war that looked like the one seen on today’s show. I don't want to say too much in this comment post, but would really appreciate if someone could reply back to me by email privately. If this is not possible, please let me know how I go about finding out more information on this canon?
Thank you.
