I understand that everyone will read things a little different I guess I don't get the same translation out of the statement:
This lot has been withdrawn at the request of our consignor due to REA’s efforts to provide additional information regarding provenance being excessive (which they may have been). We are honoring the consignor’s request and apologize for any inconvenience to the consignor and to bidders.
The items are gone and until they appear again, it's a moot point. So until REA comes on, I guess we will never really know what happened.
