Another way of noting 'chandelier' bidding ... Should an auction employ any ringmen who will also note bids for the auctioneer ... watch their arms/hands ... as the ringmen are ratcheting the 'chandelier' bids upwards, their hands remain open and arms down; when the ringmen have noted an active bidder, the arms are raised and a fist is clenched, signaling 'real money' is bidding.
