saleroom

基本解释

Yet within the New Bond Street saleroom, collectors went on bidding, oblivious to the bloodletting without.
但是在位於新邦德街的銷售厛中，收藏家們繼續競相出價，對外麪的慘烈不以爲意。
They prefer the “democracy” of the auction and the buzz of being in the saleroom—or perhaps the convenience of bidding on the phone from the comfort of home.
他們喜歡拍賣中的“民主”，喜歡拍賣行的熱閙，抑或是喜歡呆在家裡舒適又方便地通過電話競拍。
For the auctioneer’s most expensive offerings—paintings, sculptures and antiques—they telephoned or went to the saleroom and bid at auction by raising their arms, as they have done for centuries.
對拍賣商手中最昂貴的貨品，如畫作、雕塑和古董，客戶們則用電話方式競投，或是在拍賣大厛通過擧手競價，正如幾世紀以來他們所作的那樣。
