Auction Update Review

Rare Book Hub: 30 Auctions Archived, another 60 Upcoming this Week

 For the week ended Friday 10 November, 30 auctions were archived to Rare Book Hub’s Transactions+ database; 1 denominated in Danish krone, 6 in euros, 3 in British pounds, 1 in Mexican pesos, and 19 in US dollars.

 

Turnover was $4,909,879.94 as 80.67% of all lots changed hands.  There were 8,124 offered and 6,554 transacted.  The average lot sold for $949.14.

 

Some portion of this past week’s sales were not uploaded to Transactions+ this week because we began releasing a more structurally robust version of Rare Book Hub last Thursday.  Those sales will appear in next week’s Weekly Auction Update.

 

Now, when you start running searches in Transactions+ you’ll notice that outcomes appear more quickly.  The combination of more records and more searching members has required us to substantially rebuild the site.  It took a full year and you’ll feel it in the speed.   

 

1 auction saw its total proceeds reach a million dollars:
