While auctions often start hot, many can't keep that level of action through the entire sale. As people pick up the items they wanted, they typically begin to leave and the prices drop.<BR/><BR/>In such a situation, I purchased a box lot of brass for $12 - I sold a pair of book ends out of the box for $17, a brass statue of running horses for $25 and kept two eighteenth century and one early nineteenth century candlestick valued at $350<BR/><BR/>In another situation I purchased a box lot of glass for $3 which had a 1790's decanter valued at $195<BR/><BR/>It can be worth your time to work through the boredom and stay to the bitter end - the bitter end can be sweet!<BR/><BR/>MikeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
