Would be interesting to know what the real open market priced this at an auction as a 'barn find' in the UK.

Oops, sorry - I hadn't appreciated a thread had already been started on this barn find.

From what I see that final price is pretty much what the buyer pays, the seller gets charged 7% commission.

Strong money the final bid, somebody wanted it badly. It'll need another bunch of cash to restore...

The buyer is charged an extra 5% +vat on the winning bid, the total of £24150 includes this.
The winning bid must have been around £22750,

The auctioneers get around £1140 from the buyer & around £1600 from the seller.

Thanks Stuart, that makes more sense with the Auction house getting there cut from both the buyer and seller. I'm in the wrong job :mrgreen:

On their website it says sales on saturday totalled to nearly £1.4 million,
Thats a lot of commission. ( I'm not clever enough to work out how much)

I'm in the wrong job too!!
