Crazy auction weekend

[treefrog]

Apart from having to work Saturday and Sunday I tried to follow the two auctions at Cottees and Elephant……overall prices were good for sellers with few bargains…..I even bought a few lots at both.

At Cottees the bandits did well with the figure types at usual crazy money. The War Eagle Chief I am sure was the same that sold at one of the last Coventry auctions in 2019 and was a reproduction machine. Unless I missed something the Rol a top sold for hardly any money £1500 I think, was this the cheapest ever or a wringer

At the Elephant, long day of selling, I had to shutdown to go to work half way through second half, but looks like most sold well and I didn’t put a single machine in


Anyway thought overall a good sign for the hobby with so many items selling well , well done to Steve and Cottees

There was another slot machine auction yesterday that most of us missed.
I'll post the results soon as I have them...

If we missed another auction, it obviously wasn’t in the Calendar

It would have been if either:
(a) Anyone else had put it there, or
(b) I'd know about it myself before the sale.

Certainly do.
Good to hear you're buying again.
Keep it up!

So there was another elephant at the weekend. Wonder how many of these exist.
