Sold!

Elvis Presley's 2.25 carats self-designed diamond ring TCB ring, gifted to J.D. Sumner in 1975, was sold for US$352,000. The estimate was US$500,000.
His 1976 Harley-Davidson FLH 1200 Electra Glide motorcycle did not sell. The estimate was US$1,750,000 to US$2,000,000.

Most of the other items failed to sell too, all one increment short of the minimal bids.
