I watched the auction stream for a couple of hours during the 4 days and there sure didn't seem to be a shortage of buyers with lots of money. Based on my discussions with dealers at the Southern about strong sales and recent auction results the market for our beloved Parkers seems healthy and strong.

Reminds me of George Jones and White Lightning where I believe he referred to them as "G-men, T-men, revenoers too" :)
