To whom it may concern:
Please can you direct me to the site which outlines the result of the AGM benefit auction of April 26, 2018: the items sold and their buying (and estimated) cost.
I searched your site for the information but couldn't find any. All that I could find was the pre-sales information here.
Thank you,

Thank you for your reply.
My understanding is that auctions open to the public also post their information on their auctioneer's public website. The AGM's auction was open to the public.
Here is such an auction on your website, which provides this information on the auctioned items.

Dear Sir/Madam,
You are correct that we do publish auction information of our own auctions. However, this benefit auction for the Art Gallery of Mississauga was not a Waddington’s auction. In support of their fundraising effort, we hosted the first portion (the online part) of the auction. The auction was completed as a live auction event at their gala, and all final transactions were handled by the AGM. We did not conduct the live portion of the auction.
Sadad Zuberi will be more than happy to assist you with the information you are looking for.
Best,
Tess McLean
