This just sold this afternoon, neither by nor to me. Local auction. Any guesses on the price?

congratulations on that one. I was there, but stopped bidding at a thousand, had no idea it would sell for more than three times that (factoring in buyer's premium and sales tax).

Didn't charge sales tax, small savings there.

Underbidder was phone bidder from Florida.
