Tales From the Auction Block: Shake That Mexican Money-Maker









I bought a pile of painted erotic scenes, created for steamy Mexican paperbacks, at a very, very, low cost. Low risk with good potential for "up-side" on the bidding. These were to be for my "sexploitation sector" lots. They started out great guns, pulling in hundreds of dollars each, but as time went on, they deflated down to nothingness -- totally spent. But, all-in-all, they were a great return on investment. A winner. By the end, it was time to move on. "It's not them it's us."

BTW, I blame those school Science Fairs of yore for encouraging these "experiments" in auction theory. This research was definitely more fun than drawing up geologic exhibition posters. It was a kick to chart the results. More "walking around money."
