Merry Christmas to you from the fine folks at TeleTrade!!!!!

Well, I wouldn't have been upset or dissappointed if TeleTrade had cancelled there "every Monday" auction this week, after all it is a rather notable Holiday observed by most and the traffic there should be lighter as a result. They chose to hold the line and hold the auction, though. I wondered if anyone had coins for sale or planned to bid on anything, actively while the auction is in progress?? It's "yes" to both questions for me.
I had a consignment back in October which included a coin that has yet to sell. It'll be on the block again tonight and has got to be reaching the break even point for them with all the attention it's getting!! There are also a few interesting items that may sell low so I'll be watching them and bidding furiously!! How 'bout you, watching/bidding/selling anything this evening??
A note to all: no plugs of your coins, please!

On the other hand, maybe some people will be looking to buy some VERY last-minute gifts...
I have have resigned myself to the probability that most will be buybacks.
But, who knows? There is always that "I'm gonna get me smoe coins at bargain rates while everybody else is sipping egg nog and wild turkey" bunch out there....
Edt:
I would have forgotten completely about my consignment and the sale if I hadn't seen Al's thread...
and they're cold.

I'm very concerned as it's a signifcant amount of $$$. Guess I'll protect all the good coins and hope like crazy on the others.

Can't watch for your coin without knowing what it is.
I have held off sending coins in concerned about this week and a half
I sold some in the late October Las Vegas sale (which brought less than i hoped) and 2 were returned and relisted on the Dec 13 auction - I bought them back and made sure they would not relist them
Having said that, the eBay items I am interested in usually take a dip the last couple weeks in Dec and first week in Jan - but so far they have been selling very strong

Yea Keets. How can we turn an innocent observation into a heated spat over spamming unless you let us know which coin you're selling?

He does have a PM function. And, he knows I'm not gonna mess with him over it.
Like me! Without the egg nog and wild turkey... By 10:00 PM tonight there won't be many bargains left... But NOW there might be.
