You can say that again Mike! Not only that add the Buyers fees...you gotta
be kidding...fees to buy something at an auction. I'll pass.

Fun to watch! Bad for bargains but it shows how the high end auction
market
works.

Very interesting. As a general explanation as to likely why some of
these have high bids:
- The $312k moon pieces seem to have 1 bid but the reserve may not
have been met yet. Still, at $175 per gram it may be a good deal if
you have the money.
- The mask also has 1 bid, probably due to good advertising, although
the reserve also is not met.
- The Seymchan sphere has over 20 bids!!! People seem to like spheres.
- The NWA 725 doesn't have any bids, it's just the asking starting
price.

Yup, should be fun to watch, they stream it live online when it starts.
Which bids are surprising?
Also fun to watch (slightly off topic):
The Red Bull Stratos skydive happening right now and streaming live!
Watch as they attempt a 23 mile sky dive!

Anyone following the auction?
The live bidding does not start until 2:30 pm Central Time today,
but some of the proxy/internet bids so far are REALLY surprising!
