Ah, that makes sense. It seems they are flogging the factory collection from SIG.
Just read Datig's 1992 account about the factory collection being secured by one of the staff members after the management wanted to 'discard' the collection. He succeeded in hiding them somewhere, saving them from a rather grim fate. It seems that now that collection is being auctioned off.
At least it's better than the 'scrap them' approach they had in the early nineties.
