Anyone bid on iBelgica Auction on the 19th?

I spoke with Sonja and she assured me it was invoicing issue, but, as you said, still no updates as of 10/29

I got the Phoenician Shekels....have a new thread showing them

 

Let's check them out!

 

I had 3 targets: one of those - Otho, but sold for 900 pounds including fees, way above what I would want to pay for Otho...the other two- I will post once I get the coins, overall i though the coins were not in such a great shape, hence only a target of 3, usually i see 7-12 that I like

 

Auction on Oct. 19. It is late night Oct 31 over in Europe. No PR posted on sixbid or their web site. I have no word from them, which makes me suppose I won nothing, but I can't be sure twelve days after the auction. I got no responses to my e-mail suggestions they at least post the PR. iBelgica, where are you?

 

Same here, sent multiple follow up emails - one response -about a week ago- issue with invoicing. At least on their internal web site, for one of the lots, it shows that I am a winning bidder, - but no invoice and no updates since last Thursday - Friday... Maybe you should give them a call? I did, but Sonja told me that she would look into it, but haven't heard back from her since last Wednesday.. Disappointing

 

It is shame how they don't respond. Technically, however, it is not iBelgica but 51Gallery who organized the sale. Two different companies. iBelgica only put some modern coins in the sale as far as I know.

BTW, has anyone got the PR from the Numismatica Genevensis 9? Looks like the PR were never published not even on their own website.

 

That was another mysterious sale. I know a few dealers attended in person and noted which lots sold for what prices but they never published it publicly. I ended up with two coins from the sale, one live and one after the auction from a dealer that bought for stock, so it was possible to actually buy pieces there.

 

For prices realized go to numisbids.com . They have
been posted there for a couple of days. Numisbids is
similar to sixbid but in my opinion far superior. Good
luck with invoicing. For some reason auction companies
these days, regardless of location, take their "sweet"
time in processing P.R. and invoices. I am still waiting on
"tracking info" from Gorny Mosch after paying for my lot
on Oct. 15.

 

Thank you! I was looking on sixbid which I used to bid and they don't have it. Maybe I should switch to numisbids. It makes me think the firms must be paying a lot to have those consolidators be a portal to their auctions.

All my bids but one were too low. On one lot I bid opening level and the PR lists it as unsold. I wonder if they will sell it to me at my bid anyway. I'll drop them an e-mail requesting it.

 

I had requested and was waiting for a consolidated invoice from G&M so that I could pay them for a few coins from their last auction. I didn't hear from them for over a week, but to my surprise my coins were delivered to me today (together with a hardcopy of the invoice which finally allowed me to pay them). It's not even the first time they've sent a package to me before I've had a chance to pay them.

 

Lucky you, I am still waiting on shipping confirmation

 

Love it, thanks for sharing!
