I went to the local mail distribution center and walked around in a frenzy sniffing piles of boxes. No luck.

Mine arrived today, and....

1. The mailman almost broke his back delivering it
2. It smells really great
3. It’s sooooooo thick
4. It’s more like a phone book than a Catalog
5. There are so many nice cards this time
6. I placed my opening bids, and am already outbid on every lot
7. I will be happy just to win one item

There... I think that covers it, but probably forgot something important. Feel free to add anything I’ve missed.

A true story from tonight...

I actually talked my wife into smelling the Catalog, fresh out of the box. At one point, we were even smelling it together. It was a true bonding experience, I thought...

But then she pushed it into my face, and said “You look at your nerd porn - I’m watching Grey’s Anatomy”.

There is no way I could even get my wife to do that. While we were smelling it, she would be attempting to disembowl me. I'm not in. IMO, its best not to share everything. I won't lie if asked directly, but there's a reason I have stuff sent to my office.

Glad there are 15 days to go. I placed all my opening bids; and accidentally opened the "my bids" page (I try to never look until there are a few days left) - and saw the "Currently winning" total - need some of you fellas to get to bidding; or that last comment about a wife disemboweling one of us will surely occur.

I was looking through mine and my wife who has COPD made me move into my room as the ink smell was giving her lung issues.

My wife said the catalog must be put out into the garage to air out before it will be allowed in the house.

Default REA Catalog
I received my catalog over the weekend. I had already submitted a handful of bids online. I've been drooling over the catalog ever since it rolled in. I have put sticky notes on a lot of items and have submitted additional bids, but, in every case I have been outbid. I fully though my bids could stand (even with the 20% buyer premium) in most cases. At this point I have 0 winning bids out of 29 tries.

I will revisit the bidding before the cut off time, which I believe is 6pm, and determine if I can venture any more money. I am probably going to give up on the early stuff, but do like some of the autographed items as well as the Non-sports stuff in the back of the book.

Good luck to everyone bidding.
