Default Question about a lot in the last Hunt Auction
Posted By: Richard Masson

Weeks before the auction, I put in an absentee bid of $3,100 on lot 424 ($3,565 with juice). The lot sold for exactly my bid, but they awarded it to a bidder on the floor. Apparently if you bid in person, you win ties.

The live format is terrible for auctioning these kinds of items. You must be on the phone to bid live if you really care about the outcome.
