Auction Purchases?
Has anyone purchased a watch at an international auction absentee or online? I am considering it for the first time and was curious on the process for or experience with international shipping. I am looking at a couple watches in the Phillips Hong Kong auction. I have purchased from Christies, but it was a NY auction.
Thanks in advance for any guidance or shared experience! |

Might be a little late on this but yes, I've purchased at auction overseas. PM me if you have specific questions.

Anyone knows what the buyers premium is from these Auction House like Philips, Sotheby’s and Christie’s?

Since you bought from Christies before you have experience already. I would assume they all function in a similar manner.
