The big-ticket buyer’s name is unclear since Heritage Global Partners, the auctioneer, declined to comment or provide information on the bidders or their amounts.
Twitter is having a fire sale of excess office supplies, selling hundreds of products. Heritage Global Partners is auctioning off the items.If somebody actually believes that the proceeds from selling a few laptops and chairs will pay for the mountain there, then they’re stupid, said a spokeswoman for the company, which sells surplus and distressed assets, in a prior interview with Fortune.
Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter, has made adjustments to the business since buying it for $44 billion in October of last year. By eliminating hundreds of Twitter employees and ending the company’s free lunches and other benefits, he almost immediately began lowering costs.
According to SFGate, a larger neon rendition of the Twitter logo fetched $40,000 at the auction. According to SFGate, the two Twitter birds sparked a last-minute bidding battle that resulted in the statue’s bid increasing one hour before the auction ended. Before the end, both birds were worth more than $30,000.
Bicycles that can charge phones, pizza ovens used in commercial kitchens, and iMac monitors are among the many products on sale.
Regarding the bid amounts for the Twitter logo statue and other goods, HGP declined to comment.
