@riddleronthefoof with buyers premium I’m sure it was what the heading states.

That is one of the worst and most over rated paintings I have ever seen. It amasses me that some fucktard morons actually consider this to be good art that they would actually pay $70+ million for such garbage.

If I owned this crap, I would sell it, too, when stupidity becomes insanity. And piss myself laughing as I deposited the check. Absolutely.

@essdotverma007 There wasn't a bid for that amount. The auction house fees are over and above the sale price, which brought the total to the higher figure.

@riddleronthefoof auction house fees between 10-15 percent

It was the Internet Bid that closed the 72,800,000 bid.

Hysterical. These fraud whores are more entertaining than a comedy movie.

@riddleronthefoof Its called Buyer's Premium. 12% is added onto the hammer price. its how the auction house makes money, therefore Sotheby's earned $7,840,000 selling this painting. The buyer is the one who pays the extra, the seller takes home the 65million.
Am I misunderstanding something? Didn't it close at 65 million?
