Too Much Information.....TMI

[Chris Hachet]

I was looking through advertisements for auctions in the area and noticed one auction had a few items of interest.....and then after reading the advertisement a few times to ensure old eyes read correctly, it stated, "Terms of the sale are cash or check guaranteed with a credit card. All buyers must have a fingerprint on file (which we can take on sight (sic) if you have not done so already). This is for Cox Auctions in Ohio.

Who in the right mind would allow someone to take your fingerprint in order to do business at an auction, especially if you pay them cash for the transaction?

Possibly they are worried about people with criminal records buying things? Seems very odd...

I have no finger prints.

They tried to take mine just the other day for a CHL and they're all worn off!

Oops - forgot to add....the Sheriff's office didn't accept credit cards or cash bank check or money order only as payment for the CHL.
