Thanks for that explanation, Ira. I tried responding but sometime MOPO takes longer to post an answer. Yes 95% of the 900 lots sold for almost $4mm. The best sale in Heritage poster history.

They will email the owner and let them know a offer has been made for XX . Heritage will handle the transaction for a 10% fee. So I get from time to time offers on the items I have purchased. I have sold some stuff and not sold others. I have tried to buy some items. As a buyer you can opt out of this. You can also set a price instead of taking offers. So that’s what is going on with that. As always, I find it fascinating to watch these live auctions…… And from the looks of it, it was quite a successful auction.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Unfortunately I missed the actual auction because of a conflict. But I pulled up the auction today and there are numerous, maybe even the majority of items, that did not meet their reserve price. At least that’s how I interpreted The information posted. It would say the item sold for, and have an amount, but then have a orange or green box below that says make the seller an offer higher than, and then it would have a price several thousand dollars more than the amount that it allegedly sold for. Perhaps Grey could shed some light on this. Chris Quarles On Mon, Nov 23, 2020 at 12:25 AM Glenn Taranto <exit82afi...@gmail.com<mailto:exit82afi...@gmail.com>> wrote: Toochis - 200,000??? Yikes!

Perhaps it's the uncertainty of the times. People may be holding on to cash. I got my dream poster tonight for slightly less than the low estimate. While it's likely the BP, taxes and shipping will bring it up to my target price I was very happy with the results.
