Simply amazing!
Why is it amazing?
I don't think its amazing, I think its a good investment in a multi-dimensional piece of art. Art is being bought and sold at prices far in excess of this amount all the time. I know many UU members are limited in budget, I certainly am, so this piece of art is out of financial reach for most of us. But that does not mean you need to remain ignorant of what is happening on the planet, if you look beyond the mainstream media out into the world, you are going to find some things that are really amazing.
Um Bill, they could have simply been saying the Uke was amazing....
$22,000 final price.
Looks like it would have been fun to watch at the end, with a bidding war. I wasn't able to watch it, but looked at the bidding history.
There was real brinkmanship with some of the last bids going in with only seconds to spare.Pass the popcorn please...
The auction has adopted a format where a new bid in the final two minutes resets the clock for another two minutes. At the official end time, the price was $17,150. There were three bidders that submitted 20 more bids over 13 minutes to get to the final price.
Why is the price amazing?
There is no doubt that the instrument is a an amazing piece of art.
