Auction Courtesy. Your Thoughts

[Draco Nacht]

From an long-term auctioneer's perspective, I like a healthy chat. When people are talking and interacting, they're in a good mood and they're generally less nervous about bidding. We can goof and play which makes people want to come back. If Theo and I were in it strictly for the business, we would've burned out a long time ago. It's really the people who come to our auctions that fill us with joy and buoy us to keep going even when the market slacks a bit.

Interactions add so much to auctions. Without them we wouldn't have meatload or suck a pretty cat! That's not the kind of world I want to live in.

But, you know, there are at least ten thousand auctions a week. There is probably one just right for everyone.
