Low start auction this is just a marketing ploy to attract potential customers,but you can put a reserve price ,or not?

[QUOTE=John Preston;3443321]Lev Reyner,

And I have completely different stats on the relationship with the "Russian enamel". Personally, I do not go there by foot.
What I there exhibited, sold, and Gelos " he's gone "ora@

To compare the "Russian enamel" and "Gelos" for all sections not just come from - a one-sided game. You closer to the painting? Well. Take for comparison the most significant auction "Gelos" this year - "the Auction" and the last auction "Russian enamel". With almost the same number of works in painting and graphics at the "Gelos" went 21 work on 810 thousand, "Russian enamel" - 50 more than 2 million the Efficiency of the auction above 2.5 times!
Real 30% on painting auctions on the Russian is very good! The "Gelos" on "Auction of the year - 12%, in the last month - 14%. And this is the best section on auctions of this company.
No, "Gelos" is not good and not bad. He is such as it is. The best - in the past, frankly peripheral, unable to compete in one of the directions with the market leaders - today, the legendary forever.

So I did not understand, and what exactly is on offer? :)
Gelos with their flaws and advantages, as well as the entire antique world :D
I live with it quite well and buy me quite like it there, but shoals of them were not alone. This is normal.

By the way, tomorrow in "Russian enamel" is a specialized auction of antique postcards. Before such auction conducted only "Gelos", but in scale they are incomparable. In gold for "glosa" 2007 and 2008, the first two auctions (Thong auctions in General) were medium with a small number of the lots. But then in "Close" specialized Department was that antique paper done... In 2011, without the Department, "Gelos" failed auction - on available data, slightly more than 7% of care.
Let's see what tomorrow will be "Russian enamel".

"Gelos" 2011 - 7%. "Russian enamel" 2015 - 100%. No comment:)

Good result. Sorry not had time to put the thumbnails of postcards Moore.

I assume Bidspirit.com do not want to cooperate with the Gelos - why would wiggle and spin dying auction house

Cheating
 

Today was accidentally discovered in directory last auction Gelos from 25.05.2015 its work V. Makovsky, which I did not put on this auction. How Are You? Why do they do it?
I have this watercolor in 2012 tried to sell through Gelos, now without my knowledge placed in the directory. What to do with it?
Scammers, do not mess with them.

I think it's not fraud, just "let it go".
Probably just moved the bug that's been there.
After all, in any case, to sell something that does not have, is simply not possible!

But I was more another item in this auction puzzled - lot 242. The picture is clearly visible signature N.Tarkhoff, in the description of the author listed why-tog Tarkhov Dmitry. It's like? Dmitry and Nikolay Aleksandrovich completely different artists.
