Turnover is the auction house’s published total where there is one, otherwise the sum of confirmed lots. Qualita Safaris’ timed auction is listed but not counted: SwiftVEE shows only closing bids for it, with no lot status.

Left out and why

Nine SwiftVEE auctions are not South African wildlife auctions. SwiftVEE’s simulcast of Woody Cape Wildlife’s auction would count that auction twice.
