If you are going to bid for that box, take plenty of cash.  . |

Wow, two boxes of ornithoptera, including alexandrae pair, meridionalis pair plus others and a box of morpho and the estimated sale price is ridiculous... 400-600 CHF ( Swiss francs). There are a couple of other auction lots, both with 3 boxes of specimens, they both have good ornithoptera in them. If the euro millions comes in tonight I'll be in Geneva Monday morning then on to the other auction on the 24th for the pair of Papilio zalmoxis and others, mayo pair, rhodifer pair, morpho rhetenor augustinae males (4 in three different auctions). We don't get many of these auctions over here in the uk, though there was one last year I believe, which did have alexandrae in that collection.

That's cheap for those 3 boxes in that lot. Very cheap for a legal pair of alexandrae, never mind the pair of meridionalis, pair of Sabine, pair of arfakensis, pair of aesacus and males of chimaera chimaera and charybdis, pair of priamus priamus and pair of richmondia + 5 morphos in the third box.
Lucky buyer.

The other 2 lots were also cheap considering the ornithoptera in them, goliath pairs, victoriae pairs, some bargains had by some lucky person or persons.
