Thinning out some extra porcelain pump plates and handy oilers that I have in my Texaco collection and have listed some on eBay w/o reserve. These include the following Texaco items.

* Texaco Marine White (1958) eBay Item number: 271004230551



* Texaco Diesel Chief (1954) eBay Item number: 271004065943



* Texaco Diesel Chief (1959) eBay Item number: 271004069321



* Texaco Sky Chief Petrox (1955) eBay Item number: 271004245431



* Texaco Sky Chief Petrox (1960) eBay Item number: 271004248752



There are many other items listed so check my other auctions by clicking the link to see the auctions for the handy oilers, porcelain signs, and other items I have listed. I will also be listing a beautiful pair of Sea Chief and Diesel Chief oval tin signs in the coming days. I should mention that I am willing to sell these signs to any old gas members interested in making a private offer on any of the signs. PM me if your interested but don't want to bid through eBay.

Thanks...GasCan

Dear eBay Community Member,
The bid that you entered for the item (271004230551) has been cancelled. You can view the reason provided for the cancellation by selecting the (bid history) link from the individual item page.

Whats up with that? I had a proxy bid on the Marine sign and it was ended?

I understand how you feel always lookin when an auction is ended this way, but wanted to point out that GasCan did mention above he would entertain offers from Old Gas members outside of Ebay, so it wasn't much of a surprise that the sign found a buyer (or trade as the case may be) before auction end. I had put the sign in my watch as well to see what it might sell at for reference.

I found them on ebay and put proxy bids on all of them. It said nothing about ending auctions early on ebay. If it would have I would not have bid. Not cool..

I agree it would be a courtesy to make the Ebay community aware that the items were/are for sale elsewhere and the right was reserved to end the auctions early. I'm sure a number of the watchers/potential buyers were not Old Gassers and as such were not aware of the offer to sell/trade them off of Ebay. I know it doesn't bother me as much when I put an item in my watch that the seller states is for sale elsewhere and it's ended as it does when I get the notice you received that the auction was ended for no apparent reason other than "no longer being available for sale".

I know it's hard pleasing everyone so I've made the conscious decision to re-list the sign making it available on eBay and will run it's full course with no private offers accepted.

Sign was re-listed as originally posted and without reserve.

Item number: 271005077085

No private offers are being accepted on any of the listings until the items have ended. If it's something you want, then bid or pass. Simple as that!

Hopefully it keeps climbing too as I was offered far more on the trade.
