Robert Edward Auctions!

I find it so funny that all of you guys are upset about missing magnets and not one person has mentioned the groundbreaking way Rob and REA sent out catalogs this year. I mean really what other auction house has sent out catalogs like this? Satin finished gold iPads preloaded with the catalog and $1000 off "any" sale coupon. All presented in a beautiful black lacquer presentation keepsake box.

After all this and you guys still have the nerve to bust his chops about a freaking magnet….unreal you all should be ashamed.

Presentation box? Where's mine?

John- I think there are various boxes depending on your typical spending level. Maybe someday you'll get the catalog in one of these, like I did.

Obviously I am not spending enough.

Hey I'm not complaining at all, just got clarification from Rob as to why my catalog is late this year, turns out I'm one of the select few who is having Chuck Norris personally deliver the catalog to my doorstep.....this ensures safe delivery and without the possibility of it being stolen from my front porch

.......yes you heard right, Chuck will stay with the package until I arrive home and take delivery. What I'm thinking is this a trial run for this year with the possibility of it being the standard delivery method going forward if deemed successful.....

Complaining? Hell, I love the REA catalog. I was just bummed out that I didn't get the magnet...was kinda looking forward to it when a few guys mentioned we were getting one this year. I don't see anything wrong with guys saying they got one or not...some guys got two!

No reason to be ashamed either as no one seems to be damning REA over this ordeal.

Mike, do you understand sarcasm or humor by chance? Just wondering?

Not a scientific poll, but magnets may only be going out to those who secretly buy Miley Cyrus C.D.'s.

I finally got my satin finished gold iPad, I love the new REA app. It ties my bids directly to my bank account and even automatically increases my line of credit with my bank to ensure a win every time. What a great app. Click it and Forget it. I do not have to lose sleep over whether I put a high bid in or not. I hope they have this idea patented.

I hear that they are working with Amazon on some type of drone delivery service of catalogs directly to your door for their next auction.

What next a holodeck virtual presence system where I can check out items before I bid?

Still waiting to smell the catalog.

I got a magnet, but I didn't buy the Miley Cyrus CD secretly. Why would I keep it a secret? I always am first in line when those sweet sounds of angelic tunes are released to us poor saps just longing for a reason to be happy that we have the gift of hearing after a long day of coworker complaints and sounds of traffic.
