And about the 47k Colombo Laser...
the listing states it is a laser nostra prototype,nobium steel
the point was that this sale arguably incresed the retail value of original lasers, and the type of demographic that ''paid without looking at it'' could arguably be the type to buy at these prices, similar to the futura master prototype which Nadir was asking $110,000 for, or the hour record obree , sold for 10,000 pounds after previously been hanging in a boardroom
it could be also argued that frames of this type are bought for speculative purpose as well as 'statement' pieces to be left on show
