    Does anyone have any info on the Hartmans Collection auction at Botcon 2006. Any links to article's, or pictures? I'll even settle for vague memories.
    I wasn't able to see it firsthand, and I am very curious as to how much stuff they had, what condition it was in, and what it sold for.

    Any info would be appreciated very much.
    Thanx

    You mean their table? It wasn't as much of an auction as I recall...

    basically it went like this... they had all the "big stuff" out first and gradually brought out everything up to BM. They had a line of people. The first person in line would go through and buy what they wanted and so on....

    I got to take a look at the whole thing before anybody bought anything and it was impressive man. They had to make an absolute killing from it.

    Thank you, I really appreciate the info so far. I would have really liked to have been there to see it.

    I was under the impression that all notable rarities, like sealed giftsets and whatnot were auctioned individually. I heard that from a very unreliable source,(same guy honestly told me his dog ate his AFA-90 Computron---I'm serious). That is why I wanted to ask people that were there to see it.

    Anybody have any pics of the layout???

    That project is still in progress. These things take a lot of time. The pics and information aren't going anywhere, but it will take time to get them to a point where they can be enjoyed by all.
