Maybe I will explain better for my learned friend Doug before he construes MY post any further.
The following is a quote from Seth earlier.
"I am also going to try and do some tweaking to the buyer's premium structure to reward in person, aggressive bidding. Stay Tuned...."
In my post i said "reward the people who actually spend money" of which I am referring to anyone who buys something reguardless of what they spend...not the people who just "bid aggresively" but don't buy.

At No time did I insinuate that I or anybody else was better than anyone else nor did I use the words "REAL SPENDER".mm


Wanted early tin litho signage.
petro, farm, auto, etc.

I can't make it either Seth. Timing and distance.

I wish you the best and you can bet your A** I'll be watching online and probably buying something. I am sure it will be a first class deal.

As far as food........

I'll take a Diablo Sandwich and a Dr. Pepper nice lady....

OK all you know it alls, where's that line from???????

or maybe free shipping for those online that spend 2500.00 or more????
like reward the people who actually spend money..


Minuteman Thanks for pointing that out to me, I do apologize for using the words "REAL SPENDER." Might want to look at your last two sentences that you actually wrote and see if you can sell that line to anyone else on here. I'm not interested, but thanks. ; )

Wouldn't want Ray to feel left out with all my whining.

Here's a refresher Ray. : )

OK guys....let's all sing Kumba-Ya and roast some marshmallows. Regardless of how Ray & MM came across, I know them both and they are good guys. Sometimes, what we TYPE and what we would SAY are two totally different things -OR- without tone, inflection & facial-expression, our points are sometimes left to be interpreted by the end-reader.

I've seen many votes for beer....two reasons I can't make that happen, a)no liquor license & b) I share the lease with a church (and it's not Catholic....oh great, here's another can of worms I've opened!). Seriously though, I promise that I will come up with some reward for showing up in person....maybe Jarvis' 25yr old scantily-clad bid takers, maybe not....we'll see.

Personally, 25 year old scantily clad women wouldn't quite do it for me! Haha! Perhaps everyone that walks in the door could get a gift certificate for a food item or for a certain amount that could be spent in the auction or in the food area? Maybe a dumb idea, but it's what I have!

Seth, I have always heard great things about you and your auction. Personally, I think an organized, well run auction by great people is reward enough for attending.
