The following describes a government action that has been resolved by either a settlement or a decision by a court or administrative agency. If the matter is being appealed, it will be noted below.
On January 25, 2022, Auction Yard LLC entered into a Stipulated Consent Decree with The Arizona Attorney General. The Consent settles allegations that the business engaged in unfair and deceptively bidding in their own auctions, falsely drove up prices for items and, as a result, collected millions of dollars from legitimate auction participants who were unaware the "house" was manipulating the auction process. Under terms of the consent, the business agrees to pay $50,000 in restitution to consumers.
This action is final.
