Barnard Marcus Auctions were the first auction house to hold a room sale post covid-19, here's what Chris Glenn had to say:
Chris Glenn, Auctioneer - Barnard Marcus Auctions:
"We are the first major auction house to do this because, to a degree I am quite old school and it’s still a people business, but nevertheless we’re spending £100,000 on doing our first three live auctions, sums that I suspect our competitors are not yet ready to risk."
Chris said he considers the event to have been the future – a hybrid auction mixing live, proxy, telephone and online bids – and that it was a success, but at the end of the day says it’s still a people business and we need to keep that in mind.
