Important Note Regarding Live Auctions Items offered are part of a live auction at Hong Kong Auctions 's gallery. Items are offered in numerical order and are auctioned at a pace of approximately 125 lots per hour. Please note eBay's Time Remaining time stamp IS NOT an accurate reflection of the hour at which the lots will be offered. Absentee bids left on eBay Live Auction ARE NOT the same as bids left with the auction house directly. They are executed from a proxy computer terminal in the room against other Internet bidders. Other competitive bids include bidders on the telephone, in the room, and left bids with the auctioneer. eBay does not provide the ability for auction houses to incorporate left bids from eBay Live Auctions with those left directly with the auction staff. Thus tie bids may occur between eBay absentee bids and other bidders. In the event of a tie bid, the auctioneer has sole discretion to award the lot to the high bidder of his or her choosing--most often the floor bidder.
