Please note that Converse Auctions is using multiple online bidding platforms for this auction, as well as offering phone, in-house absentee, and live bidding. When watching the auction online live, please understand that 'floor' or 'competitive' bid simply means a bid taken from outside of the platform the bidder is currently on.
