I had absentee bids on several lots in Hunt's last auction. One of the lots was #397 where my absentee bid was $775 ($891 with the juice). The pre-auction estimate on the lot was $750-$1250. The auction ended and the lot did not sell. I asked Hunt what happened and here is their response:
"The estimate on lot 397 was incorrect (it should have been $1,250-$1,750) and was withdrawn."

It seems as though they created a new way to have a hidden reserve...
