Received mine yesterday. Still amazed the catalogs are free, printing must be $30 per catalog and add to that the shipping cost. Tells you how lucrative the auctions are for REA.

Well, on $1 million of hammer price, they get $200k, and there are a few millions in this auction. It adds up fast, but I agree, the catalogs are a mint to print. But oh that smell!

If I could develop a cologne that smelled like an REA catalog, my wife wouldn't be able to keep her hands off me. She spends more time with the catalog, just smelling it, than I do looking at the cards.

What would be really cool is if they could somehow make the catalog smell like a stick of gum, in a wax wrapper.

That’s hilarious! I just told my wife that and she said that she is not a fan at all of the smell. I told her she is crazy.
