FYI, asked to be approved via eBay to bid on line last week and so far no response. And another board member told me same situation for him.

Hi Steve, I apologize for the delay as I was unable to see a small pool of Ebay bidders pending approval until today. I contacted the host company and was able to approve all bidders who were in the cue. Thank You

Have you emailed the auction house? They are generally very responsive.

I checked your registration and it shows you were approved on December 8th.

[slidekellyslide]

I signed up via ebay and was immediately approved. Loving that groovy Brady Bunch blouse.

[bigfish]

May I suggest going for the Sinatra detective suit?

Chris - I like you and think you are a great person to have on the board, but honestly, I want to reach through the computer screen and choke you every time you type the make-believe word "bidded". Doesn't the spell check on you computer notify you EVERY time that "bidded" is not a word?

FYI, the past tense of "bid" is....get this..."bid"! Thank you, my rant is done.

Otherwise, I agree with you. Strong prices for some of the lots I was watching.

[pawpawdiv9]

Sorry,
I do not have spell-check, when I type apparently.
Plus, I did not realize until now, I was typing it wrong.
I was always a failure at reading, vocabulary and speech.

[Snapolit1]

Every time I bid on something at Saco it doesn't go well for one reason or another. Placed a bid for an item I really wanted and got two emails from eBay saying it ended at 6PST on January 4. Put that one my calendar. I guess I won't be winning it, as it ended on January 3.

Way to make me feel like an a$$. Haha!

Glad I learnt u sumthin’ turday. Edumacation is very impotent .

[Donscards]

I was at the auction---strong prices---I won a few things---wish I would have gone stronger on the Ted Williams letters---those were very unique--I believe the highest one went around 2K---most of the others $300-$450--

[bigfish]

Had a great time at the auction. Won a few things. I heard they will be having another auction in March with a selection of pre war including coupons, high grade t202 hofers, Mello mints, t206, e121, e95, and a few goudey Ruths. Looking forward to the sale.

Same here. I was never informed when I was outbid. Only after the auction ended....

[slidekellyslide]

Interestingly enough I was also notified that the auction was on the 4th and was sure that was wrong so I checked the ebay listings I had in my watch list and they all said the 3rd. I got outbid on the Jack Palance robe, but did get lucky enough to win the Brady Bunch sun dress.
