Overview

• All participating dealers each added €10 to their bids so a seller’s €300 asking price for a 51-piece Polly Pocket collection could be met
• A Longwy vase acquired for €1 on a flea market fetched €100 in the auction after expert Friederike Werner identified its French provenance, dating it to the late 19th century
• Wolfgang Pauritsch paid €1,250 for a Sweetheart brooch studded with genuine gold nuggets, more than doubling its expert-valued high of €600
• Dealer Daniel Meyer accidentally destroyed a century-old phonograph cylinder in the negotiation room and compensated the seller with €20
