Here was an auction loss, the Von Dutch square rainbow

http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2006/12/von-dutch-great-artist.html#links is where I went into detail, and will explain what it is, but get this... it was auctioned off for 34 thou last may by RM auctions, and now that person took a loss of 6 thou becuase they got greedy and wanted it just for the profit potential, they only got 28,750 on Jan 19, 2007 Barrett Jackson auction. The irony is that Von Dutch painted this (by one account) as an example of how rich people are foolish, and now this bird has come home to roost for the seller who takes a loss of 6 thou.
