Oprah Winfrey Auction in Chicago

Tomorrow will be the last day to register for the Property from the Oprah Winfrey Collections Auction at Leslie Hindman. After many years of taping the Oprah Winfrey Show at the Chicago based Harpo Studios, Oprah is permanently moving to LA and selling her apartment(s) and belongings.

We had the opportunity to have a close look at the collection this morning and I already know which item I will bidding on: the green Chanel bag, estimated at $400-600, so bidding will start at $200 (half of the lower estimate). I'm hoping I will be the only bidder but what are the odds of that ... ?

Luckily I had the opportunity to try the bag this morning (with thanks to Ine for capturing this special moment!)


I encourage every Oprah fan to have a look at the online catalogue of this auction, since online & phone bids are - of course - possible and this collection has items estimated as low as $50 ... But some of the paintings are estimated around $50000 or higher ....

Doors open at 9 am on Saturday morning, auction starts at 10 am sharp.
