Nick Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Hi, just wondering, are the items auctioned off in real time by an auctioneer, or do you leave written bids like the ASF auctions at Autographica? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Real time auctions with an auctioneer. Thanks QS, how do I find out what time and where it takes place, will there be an announcement at the show? Ive always missed/forgotten about the auctions until Ive got back home and ended up being disapointed I didnt see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abstractharmony Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Yahweh... For the most part it is very easy to ID the signer...unfortunately, where the signer has more of a squiggle (and you are not familiar with the signer) it is sometimes difficult to see on the fly who has signed it and we didn't want to give any information that wasn't 100% correct. Realistically however it was maybe one or two pieces out of the 50+ lots that you are referring to. Also, we were last minute replacements for the usual auctioneers so you'll have to forgive that we were not 100% up to speed. Finally, one man's trash is another man's treasure and just because you didn't want said autograph doesn't mean to say that the purchaser wasn't delighted with whatever they paid for it. I do hope you'll attend the auction at EMS and you do find something that you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the Architect Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) Does David count as a prop? If so, bagsies he's mine! Will there be a list or at least part-list of star items nearer to the day? Edited September 18, 2011 by the Architect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You turn up at the time, with a fistful of pound coins, and fivers (and bigger notes) , and happily part with them for bargains. Well, that's been my experience, anyway. Great fun!
