Heritage has scheduled a Space Exploration auction on September 27. Since they will probably not reschedule their auction Lunar Legacies might want to reschedule theirs. |

From Lunar Legacies: An important note for next Saturday's Sept. 20, 2025 auction. The time between lots closing is now 40 seconds beginning at 8 a.m. PST.A three-minute extension will be added to the lot only if a bid is received within 40 seconds of the lot closing, and not the usual two or three minutes. There are no reserves in this auction, so if a bid is received, then it will sell. Four to five early Rocketdyne and Titan hardware items will be added shortly, so be looking for those. They will be lot numbers 216 to 219. There are a few descriptions to do and a couple photos, but all should be completed by this coming Wednesday. |

From Lunar Legacies The 48th Lunar Legacies Space Memorabilia Auction is set for today (Sept. 20, 2025). The auction starts promptly at 8 a.m. PDT (11 a.m. EDT).This will be a timed auction with lots going off every 40 seconds instead of the usual one minute. Three minutes will be added to any lot that receives a bid within several minutes of ending. Also, if a lot you are interested in and is, let's say, 125 lots away, simply multiply that 125 lots by 0.6 to come up with 75 minutes until your lot comes up (it's actually 0.67, but 0.6 is safer). There is a 25-cent HiBid fee to the buyer on the first 100 lots sold. |

I have really enjoyed the experience bidding in the Heritage auction. The low starting bids and showing the final price with buyer premium made it a good experience even for someone who doesn't have deep pockets. |

I also don't have the deepest of pockets and agree 100% about the appeal of the low starting points for their bids. Got a couple of extra items in this one that I would not have given a second thought to, had the bidding started in the "triple digits." I get that the final bid prices for many lots and items are going to be in the stratosphere, so to speak, regardless, but it would be nice to see more auction houses just start low(ish) and let nature take its course. |
