Max, I'm pretty sure not all auction houses operate in such underhanded ways. I don't have massive experience of this sector, but recently had dealings with H&H and found them to be very professional and did all they promised. I should add the caveat that this was not as a seller however, so can't say how quickly they pay out. But I suspect they don't follow the Coys code of practice!

As you say, if the stories are true (and there are many out there - no smoke without fire?) then it is indeed good riddance. Companies like this just give the whole classic car sector a bad name. Let's hope that, this time, they're not allowed to simply reappear with a clean sheet under a (slightly) different name.
