Mrs. Peel Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 In April, an auction by Julien's Auctions at the Beverley Hills Hilton will provide an unprecedented look into the private world of Michael Jackson. Observer Music Monthly has obtained this world exclusive preview of some of the items going under the hammer Catalog Boy would I love to have Edward's Scissorhands.

Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I wonder if the story about him suffering from MRSA/flesh eating bacteria is true. He is a truly sad and tragic figure. No matter how much money you have...you can't escape your demons. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 8-year olds, Dude. Demons are demons. This is my 'hate the sin not the sinner' motif. Despicable as he may be, I can only imagine the hell that his life actually is. Empyt, Loveless, tormented...his narcissism has led him to destroy his face and destroy the lives (allegedly) of young boys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Stewart Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Those prices are pretty low. Do auction 'guide prices' usually start lower than the item's worth/expected take?Either way, I imagine these will all be Jeff Koons' when the auction is over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 This came about due to someone not paying a storage bill, is that correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do auction 'guide prices' usually start lower than the item's worth/expected take?Either way, I imagine these will all be Jeff Koons' when the auction is over. Usually the "estimate" is there as a guide -- actual selling price can be hugely different. There can also be hidden reserves (floor) that the seller won't sell the item less than a specific price, generally under the low end of the estimate. And best yet, the auction gets a % from both the buyer and seller.... My sister was in the auction biz here in chicago Quote Link to post Share on other sites
