I would say most auctions are run like that now that I've watched. Unless the owner/represenitive is there to start stuff up, especially anything with a crank, it doesn't get started. I've always wondered just how bad that hurts a sale not having stuff run that is claimed to be running. The exceptions seem to be some of the large consignments like Mecum and Polk where they do run a lot of stuff through a central ring. Another issue is a lot of auctioneers just pile stuff together without a clue as to where it really goes, unless you have the owner standing there saying this goes with that your going to have a lot of stuff that should go together, not.
A local guy might be willing to spend more time organizing the sale then one of the national guys, but also might know a whole lot less about some of the items. Other problem with a local guy is them being able to handle a major sale with internet bidding and getting the word out. A lot of auctioneers seem to have a real problem getting the word out effectivly.
