Disappointed with Heritage ebaylive; follow-up added

In another thread, I posted the image of the 1860 $10 that I appeared to win in an ebaylive auction from the recent Long Beach show. After multiple emails and phone calls, it appears that no one at Heritage recognizes that I won the item, and the person in charge of the ebaylive auction has not called me/emailed me back. Sadly, I will likely not get to buy the coin.
As someone who has bought numerous items from Heritage in their conventional online auctions, I am disappointed. It appears they have some difficulties with the ebaylive format based on multiple neutral and negative feedbacks they have received. I believe they should scrap the format until they can do it correctly. I would warn others not to bid on the ebaylive Heritage auctions for fear of:
1. Bidding more than you thought you did (ask JBSteven)
2. Not getting an item that you thought you won

That price includes the 15% juice. Does it match your eBay bid?
I find Heritage can be a pita unless you talk to just the right person who deals with your type of auction and bid.
Try contacting this person, BeckyM@heritagecoin.com
Yes, that was my bid. I received email notification from ebay that I was the winning bidder.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
I usually place the highest bid that I am going to place the night before on the internet site right before the deadline.
If the coin is over 5k, then you can live phone bid thru a Heritage rep. I did that for a 1916 SLQ that I really had to have and had no problems, worked out great.
