Question moot ...
The prices were too low for most of the works. And not only the artists but also their heirs, and galleries, representing the work. I think all the auction participants started from the charitable purposes.
But in all required measure. What you suggested - more like a dumping and chaos. Paraphrase one participant of the conference or you waited for that you will sell the Van Gogh of 1000 rubles? "
Although, for the little-known artists, perhaps, an opportunity to declare itself on the auction means more than the estimated price. But then - this is their mistake. Probably, it cost them to listen to your advice and install other starting price ...
