Yeah, I was the big spender today
 I figure they're good for parts if nothing else. Also easy for my buddy to pick up and transport.

Grouping two or three TVs in a lot
This was my first time watching a live auction. It was interesting and the selling prices seemed low (in most cases).
I was wondering why many lots today included two or three TV sets -- given the added cost of the Buyer Premium, sales tax, packing/shipping costs for one or two sets in the lot that a bidder is not interested in.

Made no sense to me either. Especially pairing up two Dumont doghouses

The Pilot for $20 was a give-away. It needed TLC, but even if just the CRT was good! The Andrea TV was well worth the price. That set is very rare. The GE 803 is another rarity. Well worth the price even though it needed a complete refinish. The GE HM-171 was pricey, but you'll never get a chance at another classic pre-war TV at that price! An awesome piece of TV history even just as-is. What about the Dumont "Clifton" console? That is very rare set too.

Oops - I missed a zero. The Pilot went for $200. There are still three days left in the auction with lot of sets yet to come. Many in lots of 2 or 3.

Not to mention both Cliftons and a CT-100. A Clifton is on my all-time crave list, but shipping across the USA seems dumb, and I don't like buying anything based on a couple of photos.

DuMont Cliftons
I've never seen a DuMont Clifton for sale (anywhere).
They look like they must weigh 250 pounds. How much should one sale for in good condition these days?

Apparently someone got one in Philadelphia for $495 about 6 months ago. http://mail.videokarma.org/showthread.php?t=256512

Ugh. So many microscopes on auction today
 Did anyone catch what the Gray sequential monitor went for ? The assortment of TV magnifiers went for $750!

Large collections
As I watch today’s auction items waiting for the TV auctions to begin, I am wondering (and I mean this in a nice way) whether collecting and hoarding are related?
How did Elli Buk amass so much stuff, where did he keep it, and how did he know what he had? He and Andy Warhol must have cornered the market (in their different fields) on collectibles.
