Premiere Props ‘Better Business Bureau’ Rating Score Drops to “D”

Premiere Props, known in the hobby as a “studio reseller” (a company that sells original film and television assets on behalf of various studios) has recently had a significant drop in their Better Business Bureau rating.  Their current BBB score is a “D” (with only two possible lower grades, a “D-” and an “F”). 

Details about how BBB Ratings are determined can be found here:  LINK

Premiere Props liquidates most of its inventory via sales on eBay as well as through periodic live auction events (usually offering online bidding via iCollector).

The public rating of the business can be found at the Better Business Bureau website, BBB.org (Full Resolution Archive 02/08/10):

Complaint Statistics Summary:

Premiere Props also no longer shows as an “Accredited” business on the Better Business Bureau site.

The cause for the significant drop in BBB rating is part of an ongoing investigation by the Original Prop Blog.  I have read official BBB complaints related to this issue as well as supporting documentation, and also been in communication with the live auction consignor/buyer and complainant David Brandon (see www.HorrorDomain.com) who brought this news to my attention.  I may publish additional details in a future article, pending further research.
