Boring, boring. This subject has been done to death in the past, and doesn't bear repeating again. Least of all by you, who simply does not like the fact that in a free society, in an auction situation, the person prepared to bid the highest, wins the prize. End of.

And before you jump all over me again, sudek does not always win every auction they enter. And sudek does not enter every auction, either. You see, with the greatest of respect to those who bid on his behalf, I suspect that sometimes they do not know what is in front of them, and decide a photo is not worth bidding on, when it is actually a rare bird/scenario. With regard to 110s, anyway.
