SSD1229 Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 I was online biddng on the last Tarisio auction (5/6 and 5/7). Lot no. 104 sold for $6,000. It is labeled "French bow, illegibly stamped". It does not have any hair on it. It can't be tried out. The estimate on the lot was between $1,000 - $1,500. Anyone know why it went for such a high price?

Janito Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 To my untrained eye the head looks like Sartory: http://www.tarisio.com/pages/auction/aucti...39&ID=17607 Considering the illegible brand, I wonder how it will emerge after repairs to the head, rehair etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i bid again, somebody comes again. Tariso sell or makes an offer for the highest bidder also if the reserve price has not reached. Many instruments comes again to the next auctions, for example lot 323 has been sold 4-5 times. Now lower than the reserve. Do you think that the sellers are so honest and they wait for your bid lower than they want? lot 323 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
