Auction on Spira

Around 3 ABY, an auction on Spira was hosted by a Troig auctioneer. It was one of two antiques auctions held a year on the planet Spira. During the auction, a Nihil strikeship came up for sale, which Captain Amilyn Holdo hoped to get the Path engine of so she and other members of the Rebel Alliance could find the lost Kezarat Convoy. The bidding was opened at twenty-five thousand credits by the curator of the Imperial Museum. Holdo then bid twenty-six thousand, to which the curator responded with a thirty thousand bid. As the bidding almost came to a close, Holdo raised a bid of thirty-five, but the curator again countered, this time with fifty thousand credits, which ultimately won him the ship. Despite the curator's victory, it did not stop the rebels from promptly stealing the Path engine from the ship and escaping with it.
