Example, Lot 1164, "Ford Grill" They give dimensions? Am I supposed to check if it is an inch short? 1/2 long? 2 in too wide? Would be good if it was stated, used, restored, NOS, Vintique, that would be helpful.

Example, Lot 1336, "Ford Parts" What is a Gatke Gear? Lot of 20, I counted 7 times came up with 19 every time. I think the Gatke Gear is awol

Example, Lot 1334, "Ford air cleaner and parts" Lot of 13, I count 15 items. Do they hold back two items???

Example, Lot 1354. "1932 Ford engine fan NOS" dimensions again, OK, seven pictures, four are of a fuel pump??? If your the successful bidder do you get the fan and the pump because it's pictured?

Otherwise Im gobsmacked!!!!!!!!

ALSO
I looked on the Mecum site AND could find VERY LITTLE about shipping and handling of "the goods" once the winning bid is received? I have heard MANY stories of "missing" items from "multi item" lots and what I DO read from Mecum ALL OVER their site IS "WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE" which I take at face value AND I take as BOTH DEFINITIONS of the statement!!!!! They are not a "responsible" for the "sticky hands" of their employee's and contractors THUS they are not a "responsible" company in my view!!!!
