I was so fixated on 25 pdr stuff that I did not notice the little stowage box for the 6 pdr shield until after the auction was over. That was another item that I would have happily paid too much for.
As to pilfering from the lots, I pretty much got whatever items were in my lots, and some of it I gave to.the mlu member who picked up and shipped my stuff. But I heard from others that they were missing items from larger pieces that they had purchased, and that there was little satisfaction to be had from the auctioneers..
