Question about a lot in the last Hunt Auction

Max - I would suggest that even if it never made it to the floor, it still smells funny.
I would imagine that the majority of the lots were won by people not present and Hunt had a pretty good idea ahead of time what the lot was going to bring, even before it hit the floor, once all the absentee bids were in and phone lines were reserved.
The lots/descriptions were posted for weeks ahead of time - they only noticed the "mistake" the day of the auction?

Tim - your report only compounds the questions. Who bid $1200 and aren't they irate that they couldn't take the lot home? With the juice, $1200 puts them into the new post-auction estimate anyway...

edited for spelling.
