To me it is encouraging in that it means I may actually be able to pick one of these up one day.

Without trying to single out those examples, beware of some auction houses. Sales are final and no arbitration like ebay.
Additional buyer premiums too and of course sales tax collection. Copake buyer premiums are 20% at place of auction and any of their on line affiliated are 25% over hammer. Be prepared for cost of packaging and shipping.
