Sotheby’s Hong Kong Week = HK$2.975bn (US$372m)

October 8, 2014 by Marion Maneker

Sotheby's HK 1014

 

Sotheby’s just finished its autumn sales cycle even with the Hong Kong protests taking place all around the auctions. The sales total represented a 30% decline from the previous year’s $542m performance. And, once the buyer’s premium is removed from the final numbers, it would appear that the total sale was closer to the low estimate for the week:
