Here we go again ...

What would have this sign brought at a BASH? How does one set a value on such a DESIRED sign?

261132115570

As a Seller, I would have done the same thing:

1- Offer this on eBay (where else one can find better audience!)

2- Be honest with the DESCRIPTION.

My friend that lives in that area had seen the sign that the seller had for many years. Arnie told me: "man, if he had the money, I would have gone for it". I told Arnie I "ditto" what you said!

This sign has to be the best sign ever made in my opinion!

Randy,

Yes, but what if I the WINNER had it locked at much higher price?

I have lost so many bids because I did not BID hard enough ...Lesson learned!

Recently, got a RARE truck that needs restoration for $600. It was sitting at $220 with 20 minutes to go. I had to BID hard to get it.

Bottom line IMO : Formula revolves How Bad one wants to have an item?, right?

Henrik
