At this rate...I might just need a beer LOL []

 

[ed4copies]

IN THE JUDGEMENT OF THE AUCTIONEER, SINCE THIS WAS BASED ON A TIME SPECIFIC FOR FINAL BID, I WOULD LIKE TO AWARD DUPLICATE PRIZES AND ACCEPT BOTH LAST BIDS AS $200.

DOES ANYONE OBJECT (DUPLICATE PRIZES WILL BE AWARDED AT NO CHARGE TO IAP)

 

[ed4copies]

CHANGING THE QUESTION A LITTLE,

EILEEN AND REED, IS THIS OK WITH EACH OF YOU???

Ed,

Thanks for doing this [^]

LOL

I'll let Ed finish and I'll start my own []

 

[thewishman]

Ed, you're a great guy. I was afraid you'd blow an artery the way your fonts were increasing in size and the exclamation points were flying. I hope no one was injured.

Nice way to make everyone a winner.

[reed43]

I have no problem with this. I think this was to raise money for IAP.
That just makes it better for the site. Thank you for providing the blanks. Need address to send Paypal

 

[ed4copies]

SEEING NO REPLY FROM ANYONE;
OPTION 2: THE WINNING BID CAME FROM EILEEN AT 5;00:34 AT $215

SHE IS THE WINNER!!!!!

I gratefully accept this option-two packages will be awarded at $200 each.

 

[emackrell]

Ed, I have no problem with the double win, and it looks like your post and Reed's (agreeing to the double win) crossed in cyberspace. However - you're the auctioneer - just let us know the final, final decision!

Let me know the address for the paypal. And thanks for doing the auction -- great fun!

cheers Eileen[8D]

 

[reed43]

Thanks for the fun Elieen it was great.

 

[ed4copies]

I MUST say thanks to all of you who have "played along" with these auctions. It was my intention to try to raise $150 for the site, instead

YOU have raised $560

Reed, thanks for filling in for Red (who e-mailed me that he would be out of town-yesterday). I'm sure he also would have provided that "little push" for our Navy Lady.

Eileen, both last week and this you have provided the spark that a good auction needs. I sincerely thank you.

IT'S BEEN FUN-HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD TIME TOO!!!!

currently 94 degrees, 68 percent humidity in my office.

Are you kidding? After the auction, I almost went out to smoke [}] ...only to remember that I don't smoke. Yeah it was that good. [] LOL

 

[emackrell]

Reed, my thanks to you - it was indeed fun! I'm just sorry Red wasn't here too, it would have been a good three way battle.[]

Ed, thanks again for doing this, and don't stop!

cheers Eileen[8D]

 

[Jerryconn]

Ed,
Thanks for all the fun! as well as your and the bidders support of this great place! I love following your auctions!
