For the dealers involved definitely the best strategy to have it auctioned by Thies since they would have lacked the profile (and cash) acting alone.

For one of the nices pieces in this hobby a little lame in my own opinion.
How many collectors are able (and willing) to pay such a high amount for a collectible? Is it a steady investment?
Will young collectors have interest for the Schulz docs in the future?
I would not call it lame.
Congratz to the buyer... a brilliant set of documents

I wonder whether it went to the U.S. ...

What makes all these formal award documents unique and fascinating is that each letter is handmade. Non is standard. This applies to the most common (KC) as well as to the rarest of them all, the diamonds. Each one is a unique piece of art. The diamonds document is especially impressive due to its weight alone!
When you take the documents out and look at them in the light on a clear and sunny Sunday morning it will leave you speechless!

The facts
At the risk of starting yet another nasty WAF thread argument that goes nowhere allow me, as a person “in the know, to state the facts:
1. The consignor was very pleased with the final selling price and his profit. As this was the most expensive Third Reich artifact ever sold at auction, I would hardly consider $1.4 million dollars “lame”!
2. Once again, given the expense of the reserve price the number of bidders, (three phone bidders, three through the auction platform lot tissimo and four written bids) I would hardly consider the interest “lame”.
