H & H auctions live

[mikal83]

Anyone else watching??

[Audimercorbm]

For what?

[Mr_Megalomaniac]

Yup. I'm surprised how many sold below estimates or went unsold entirely. Wonder if the market is hollowing out.

[mikal83]

Thats my thought as well. i woud have bought 1 or 2 at those prices, starting with lot 2

I watched some of it. Some of the provisionals may end up with sales but there were a lot unsold, 6 in a row at one point.

The percentage of sales at CCA, Silverstone, Historics, H+H and the like have been falling the last couple of years. 80% sale rates are now down at 60% ish. Too high reserve prices (?), less people wanting to buy, impeding EVs, there are a number of issues. I do think some people are offloading now though, there seem to be lot more 60s Mark 2 Jags than there used to be. MGs aren't rare but ACA in King's Lynn for example, often have 10 or more of them these days.

Good news for those of us that have held back waiting for this moment perhaps. At the next H n H, I have my beady eye on a bike......A similar one on Matthewsons soon as well

Matthewsons live now

[Mr_Megalomaniac]

A few interesting ones unsold at ACA on the 1st/2nd, moreso on at the Ascot auction on the 8th, including the Ferrari and Aston they went through all the trouble of making videos for.
