78 Charles Street, KEW
BOUGHT* - $0
The agents are looking optimistic as they usher people through for final inspections. Still, it is hard going extracting an opening bid as the auction gets underway. A vendor bid opens at $2,600,000 and an obligatory vendor referral follows after a time.
A few in the crowd dawdle off and it pretty much looks set to fizzle from here. The second half sees a bidder offer $10,000. Auctioneer Davide Lettieri wants $20,000 and they settle on $15,000. A second bidder agrees to match it and we have, if not some sizzle, a slow battle between these two in low increments. The process takes around 30 minutes until a standstill on $2,915,000 where it passes in short of reserve.
