Mr. Hilfiger’s extravagant buying was overshadowed by Benjamin and Amanda Yim of San Francisco, who flew to New York just for the sale.
They beat out dozens of buyers for a box containing a piece of the Duke and Duchess’s wedding cake. ”I think that was a record for a piece of wedding cake,” said a stunned Diana D. Brooks, Sotheby’s chief executive and one of the evening’s auctioneers, as the Yims paid $29,900.
Mr. Yim, who described himself as a collector and an entrepreneur, said, ”It’s something I consider absolutely surreal.” Asked what he was planning to do with the cake, Mr. Yim replied, ”Well, I’m sure not going to eat it.”
