a brass plaque from the shipbuilder's of the Titanic â€â€? fetched $7000, minus commission " The sale, titled "Titanic and Other Legendary Liners," also offered objects from other storied luxury liners including the Normandie, Olympic, Lusitania and the Andrea Doria The ship now rests at the bottom of the sea, 2 1/2 miles down One of the other three collectors, Gary Robinson, said that watching the auction was "like losing a child," but added that he was happy for the excitement and would be starting his collection over Collectors Bid for Titanic Artifacts Jun 11, 11:12 AM EST Collectors began sinking thousands of dollars at a sale billed as "the most exceptional assemblage of Titanic material ever to be offered at auction The most expensive item sold Thursday â€â€?
