Now we are taking @serap I didn't personally know how it works if an item gets no offers. I would enjoy having a cup of coffee whilst there is an action on. I am barely attached to any material things especially large items. I was gifted a vintage brooch and I have a few pairs of earrings too. So if I get the chance I would be tempted to buy some jewellery though I am horrible at making quick decisions so I won't do great at an auction. I have attended a cocktail party at Sotheby's though and I enjoyed admiring pieces of art.
What I like the most is drinking my coffee while the auction is going on. But if there is something that interests me, coffee can instantly lose its charm :D It's great that you're not tied to things. Except for the items that I attach meaning to, I try not to get attached to them. I admire vintage brooches, they are very elegant :) As you said, even watching the works in auctions is a joy in itself :)
