Nice purchases; it seems you are getting quite a Filipino collection (next to your Molucca)!
Good luck

Default On line bids

Hi, I bid on line too. So far I haven't been notified. My bid was recorded as winning, so today I called and asked when I might be notified. I was told winning the on line bid was not final as our bids had to be compared bids at the auction, So I should know by the end of the week. Have you guys been notified?
Thanks, Steve

Beautiful gunong Detlef, I am very happy that you were able to add this to your ever growing Philippine collection. Do you have an idea on the age of this piece? My congratulations to you on being able to acquire this, I am jealous !!!

Robert

Congrats, Detlef, nice one! Please keep us posted when you receive these.

Seems like this year, again, some bids were not honoured and contributed to quite a few pieces going for much less than current market prices or what any straight ebay auction would have gained. I do wonder who commissions these pieces for auction when the auctioneer seems to repeatedly underperform.

Last year I had a confirmed CC and confirmed online bids; I should have been the high bidder on 3 pieces - none of these bids were honoured and all went for much less than my limit. I was not amused and neither were any of the sellers, I guess...

Needless to say, I didn't received any explanation from AI despite several tries from my side. Given the apparently erratic performance, I won't consider selling any piece from my collection through this auction.

Regards,
Kai

Hi Robert,

thank's again! I would guess for the age around 1920-1930 but Jose will know it more exactly. In the description was told late 19th century but this I would take with a pinch of salt!

Regards,

Detlef
