Those prices are for TV, not for the real world. Auctions are interesting ways to see the market value of ordinary equipment. The Littlefield Collection had some pricey pieces, but not everything sold or reached the reserve bid. Likewise, I noticed many low prices at a private collection in Normandy, France. There will always be interesting pieces, but some stuff isn't sexy enough to get top $.

While it is interesting to see just what is out the and still available, the show is terrible. Best thing is it is on late at night (finished 12.30am the other night) so I don't have to stay up and watch it and didn't.

The host is a real PITA and would be shown the gate if he came to my place. I can't see that he is doing our hobby any good.

It is good that we have forums like MLU, where we are mostly fair minded people with a common interest not like that wanker of a host.

Regards Rick.
