the hauls LIVES!!!!!!

The auction was last night and, if I read correctly, the contract did not sell. If so, I would think this is a black eye for Goldin.

I don't think it will have any effect on Goldin Auctions. I would just be interested to know the real story of the contracts.

Tough to comprehend a minimum bid above $15 million. So Goldin spent a lot of money and time promoting the contract and makes no commission, although they do get some publicity.

So it got one bid and still didn't sell? That's interesting. Why even put a reserve on it like that, just make the opening bid what the reserve is.

After Goldin making so much noise over the consignment this thing ended pretty quietly. Saw it coming especially after the 2 auction date changes.

My guess, based on their rules for reserve auctions, is the house had the one and only bid.

I'm a little confused because I am almost sure I got an email a few months back looking for Jackie items for the Jackie auction, and yet it seems like this item was a standalone auction.

Does anyone know if they are planning another auction focused on Jackie or if they will just have a bunch of Jackie items in their next auction...?
