Buyers and sellers on what it’s like to do business in our room.

“I flew in expecting the usual auction theatrics. Instead the reserve was exactly where they said, the inspection matched the car, and my 911 was in my garage four days later.”

“They sold my father’s E-Type for 22% over estimate. The write-up and photography did the car justice — it finally sold to someone who understood it.”
