Re: Antiquorum to Launch DirectBid (Online) Auctions
In Response To: Antiquorum to Launch DirectBid (Online) Auctions ()

Interesting Jeff,

I've been reading a bit about the auction business recently, a book called "The Art of the Steal" which goes through the collusion between Christie's and Sotheby's in the 1990s.

Also in the auction world, I think I saw last week that Patrizzi was going to focus on China and the US going forward and would pull out of Europe...did anyone else see this?
