Has there been a listserve discussion on the performance of the Mayer's
International Auction Records by it's new owners, icollector.com ?  I was
not aware of this purchase until recently.  Has anyone done a spot check to
ensure that the coverage is the same for the years 1987-97 as the CD and
hardcopies?

I would be grateful to hear from librarians with experience with the new
database.
