I think the reason the estimates on the E107 are so low is that the group originated outside the hobby from a noncollector, and I am certain he does not want to get them back. He will be happy to get what the market will bear. That is an ideal situation for Sotheby's; it guarantees everything will sell and they will be able to attain numbers many multiples their high end estimates. That is an important goal for them, since it is a yardstick they use to report the success of the sale.
