I think that this is a steal for a great sousaphone. The only reasons that I can think of for no bids are:

1. Sousaphones aren't in that much demand, except for schools, and they wouldn't want a gold plated one.
2. People are waiting to bid until the end of the auction so as not to drive the price up early.
3. The high starting price is discouraging some bidders.
4. People are skeptical that it is really gold plated.

If I had the money I would definitely consider adding it to the collection.
