Then, of course, one party was paid off with the proceeds. <BR/><BR/>I'd agree with Patrick, though, on the fees paid on the total amount. Auction companies are greedy...I mean, funny...about stuff like that :) So it will still go down as the record, since if someone else had bought her they would have had to pay the full amount.Valerie Grashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02696887655473752690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1354333762076619269.post-68777538162876352452008-11-03T08:06:00.000-05:002008-11-03T08:06:00.000-05:00if it's like other auctions fees based on hammer p...if it's like other auctions fees based on hammer price 14 million.Patrick J Pattenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10365169347148710377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1354333762076619269.post-35131285012059385552008-11-03T07:53:00.000-05:002008-11-03T07:53:00.000-05:00TDN reports that Southern Equine was only paying 3...TDN reports that Southern Equine was only paying 30% of the hammer price on all the horses they had owned in partnership, so what they'll pay for Better than Honour is $4.2 million. I wonder, though, will they pay the auction fee on that amount or on the $14M?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
