Fascinating to watch the final minutes for the Holdsworth-built Claud Butler mixte. It would appear that British bidders do not like/use sniping software. I suspect it goes against their sense of fairplay. (I certainly felt that way for a long time.) So it is a bidding battle conducted in the open in the final 10 minutes, but none come in during the final 10 seconds. It's decided before that.

It went for 155 GBP. Cheap by our standards. Two 531 mixte frames in short order. We should be so lucky...

Anyway, I wonder if someone here snagged it?

Cheers!
