Buk Auction

Checking in on the live auction http://www.liveauctioneers.com/, it seems that there must be relatively few TV collectors attending the Buk auction today. Either that or TV values are down more than I had realized.

That is unreal. Even decades ago you couldn't find that deal. I was so sure the final bids on all those great TV's at that auction be would astronmical! You never can be too sure.

Don't forget that there is an almost 30% buyer premium on top of hammer price.

I wonder what the CT-100 will end at? If it didn't end already.

The GE pre-war is the one that has me the most curious. I can't remember the last time I saw one of these pre-war television "attachments" come up for sale. It needs a lot of TLC including all the original knobs and CRT mask, but it can be forgiven on this rare historical set. Years ago I would expect it to be in the 10K area. Anyone who gets it under 5K is stealing it.

The HM171 sets actually do come up for sale occasionally. This one is also missing the CRT shield, and it looks like the chassis has been hacked to add a HV transformer on the left side.

Cast iron seal presses (?) on the other hand, http://bit.ly/12nXQuw appear to be far more valuable the our precious TVs. Who knew?

Heck, the pre-sale estimate on the CT-100 starts at only a thousand dollars. If it goes for a half or two thirds of that as some of this stuff has done, I'LL buy it!

Those 621s seemed like they might have been a bargain.

Lot number 288 (INCLUDING THE ICONOSCOPE!) sold for a hundred dollars!

$6,335 after buyers premium. It went to some one present at the auction so they saved 3% over an internet bid. Well over my bid .
