Gooding & Company, Amelia Island, Florida, March 2-3, 2023
Gooding & Company worked its way to the top of the Amelia Island auction heap in 2023 with a total sale of $72.8 million and a prodigious sell-through rate of 93.6%, a rate that is far better than Gooding did at Pebble Beach last August where they sold 85.6% of the 155 lots offered while […]
Gooding & Co., Pebble Beach, August 19-20, 2022
In common with pretty much every other Monterey auction Gooding & Company continued its strong comeback from the weak 2019 performance with strong 2022 results. The numbers that Gooding delivered are exceptional. 38 of the lots offered were bid to $1 million or more. 27 of them sold bringing a total of $74,262,500 including buyer’s […]
Gooding & Company, Amelia Island, March 4, 2022
2022 was Gooding & Company’s best-ever Amelia Island auction, something that was not unforeseen after skipping 2021 entirely and settling for a modest 56 lot consignment of cars for a Geared Online sale at Scottsdale a few weeks earlier that brought in only $7 million. It also continued Gooding’s heavily Porsche Amelia contingent. 34 of […]
Gooding & Company, Scottsdale, January 28, 2022
Gooding & Company didn’t have an auction in Scottsdale this year. Instead, they held a live preview of the cars for a Geared Online auction at Bennett Dorrance’s posh Hangar 1 on the east side of Scottsdale airport. Gooding’s previous location adjacent to the Fashion Square Mall in downtown Scottsdale now appears to be a […]
Gooding & Company, Pebble Beach, August 13-14, 2021
Gooding & Company came back strongly after the “Geared Online” auction they presented in lieu of their usual Pebble Beach auction in 2020. This was in many ways a typical Gooding auction with many transactions taking place at eye-popping prices and their McLaren F1 capturing the week’s top sale. Even million dollar lots did well. […]
Gooding & Company, Geared Online, June 18, 2021
Gooding & Company continued its series of “Geared Online” auctions in June with this British-based auction conducted in £ Sterling. It is a good example of the flexibility of online auctions which are economically viable with a small consignment and can pop up like a Daytona’s headlights when there’s an opportunity. Gooding brought together an […]
Gooding & Company, Geared Online, May 7, 2021
Gooding & Company has adapted with some enthusiasm to the online only auction format after dipping its toes into the medium in place of the Covid-cancelled 2020 Monterey auctions and then, achieving outstanding results with the September 2020 “Passion of a Lifetime” live/online auction in London. That was followed by now four online only auctions, […]
Gooding & Company, European Sporting & Historic Collection, London, Geared Online, February 5, 2021
There were only nine lots in Gooding & Company’s February 5 “Geared Online” auction, styled the “European Sporting & Historic Collection”, but they were all very special lots. Whether it’s “Geared Online” from Gooding or “Online Only” from RM Sotheby’s the online format that CoViD has promoted lends itself to tightly structured limited consignment offerings. […]
Gooding & Company, Geared Online Scottsdale Edition, January 22, 2021
In common with the other established auctions which usually have sales at Scottsdale in late January Gooding & Company’s was much smaller than usual. The 34 lots offered were less than 25% of 2020’s 138 lots; the total dollars changing hands was less than 20% of 2020’s total. There is no doubt much logistical and […]
Gooding & Company, Geared Online, October 30, 2020
Gooding & Company’s second “Geared Online” auction brought in a total just 64% of their first “Geared Online” sale in early August but still recorded a great result with three lots sold on bids over $1 million. The 7-figure cars accounted for 49.8% of the total changing hands and were 100% of the lots bid […]
