Re: I Keep Hearing About the Speed of this Auction

: People keep remarking about the speed with which these Heuers
: were sold, at the auction. I have only been to a few live
: auctions -- mainly, the Monterey vintage automobile auctions --
: and it's easy to see that the best auctioneers are able to work
: the crowd in the room, as well as the bidders participating by
: phone, etc. The best lots will usually take the longest to be
: sold, with multiple bidders digging into their souls and
: wallets, to squeeze out one last bid, in an attempt to win the
: prize.

: I wonder why this auction had such a fast pace? And, of course, we
: face the question, "Would a slower process have yielded
: higher prices?"
