What is the name of your state? FL
Basically, I agreed to consign an item of mine to an auctioneer, under what I believe were under false pretense and uninformed. The auctioneer made misleading promises in order to get me to consign my item to him, sold it for less than half it's actual value, and after the fact told me that I basically shouldn't have listened to what he told me and not consigned my item to them.
He also promised me that i would recieve my funds the day after the auction, and it's been nearly a month now and when i call about the money they give me the same excuse that they are just dealing with the merchants who purchased the items and recieving the funds, when before the auction they said they take payment right away so that I can get paid right away.
The only contract I signed was agreeing to the terms of the fee that the auctioneer.
I stressed a lot of concerns of mine before agreeing, and was told a lot of lies I believe that persuaded me to agree to consign to them. So my question is do I have a case against them to retrieve cost of the item or, for anything really?
Thanks in advance for any response.
