No need to comment on the lack of quality of this photo, but there is one consideration. Just what are they selling in this auction?

It's a house clearance auction of the type run by many local auction houses (rather than the specialist auction houses). When we dealt in antiques I attended this type of sale almost weekly in the hope of picking up unnoticed or unrecognised pieces. I stil love this type of sale, you just never know what you might find.

I think you missed the most important thing. (Hint--It's a test,in observation) Get back to me when you can figure out what the auction is really advertising.

"the hall is packed" -

No doubt the event was well attended and much ogling of the sale items took place, though one has to question how many purchases might have been made as storage would perhaps be a problem.
