    Part 2 is now concluded.

    3000th post was 3/31/05 at 4:27pm
    (post #2999 was in Neptune's whining post about her picture being ripped off)

    Now, have to go through and see who was closest........

  • You're wrong Bochiman

    Part 2: Give the DAY and TIME, on CU day/time, when I get my 3000th post. I am a few hundred away. Again, I don't know how soon it will be....I post sporadically in batches...some days, I feel the need to post, other days....nahhhhhh

    Post #3000! I'm going to work for .....
    Thursday March 31, 2005 6:27 PM

    I don't know who wins but that's the date and time of your 3000 post.

    Edit to add: Maybe just a typo on the time. I would hate for you to figure out that the wrong person won.

    No,

    I am NOT wrong.

    Thursday March 31, 2005 4:27 PM (NEW!)

    That is the date/time on MY POST from the "Post #3000! I'm going to work for ....." thread ....I am WEST COAST and that is EXACTLY what I see on the PCGS date/time stamp on my message.

    It doesn't matter because it looks like the winner would still be the same, but, while I am man enough to admit when I am actually wrong, I will maintain that I am correct in this instance.

    Hey DRAMA QUEEN (that's you neptine)

    That is AT LEAST 2 threads you have chosen to post in, about my posts (which have had NOTHING to do with you....you must not like that or something), and have had rude little comments in.

    I guess if you feel the need to stalk my posts and comment, that is fine....you have nothing better to do than to blame life on other people, right?

    RYC....I believe you are the winner with your guess of 3/31/05 - 6pm.
    I don't recall seeing anyone closer (and, if they did guess closer and I screwed up, then they will win and get a prize too!!!!).

    So, RYC, please PM me your contact/mailing info and I will give you a choice of 2 prizes.

    100th EBAY feedback: Cinco de Mayo: 05-05-05

    Hope I'm right. I've already got my listing prepared for the BST boards if I win.image

    Ha!
    Well, after being sick for 3 weeks and trying to prepare for the big shaft from the IRSMan, I have gone back to looking at ebay auctions.....I am stalled at 97 feedback, but, if I can find anything that floats my boat, I am there.

    And, if you sell it on the BST, I will ***** (something) to you image

    btw.....I didn't think I would need this rule, but I am putting it in......anyone who has won in this contest already is excluded from the remaining portion.

    Nahhhhhh......it isn't. I leave for a few and there is a banning...regrettably, you are still whining....day in and day out.
    Now, don't you have another whining thread to go administer? Something about a die-gouged 2005 buffalo coin?
    Maybe you can COA all your posts for us too? image

    Sorry Nepqueen, but, for all your moaning and groaning, you are really getting old (more than just your real age). You do nothing but whine about the "speared buffalo" coins if people don't agree with you on them. You whine day in and day out. Broken record. I would say "grow up" but you already are one of the oldest board members image

    Btw Nepqueen.....are you on a 1-1 ration of edits to posts?
    It seems that you can never make up your mind on your posts and always edit them? Something to do with a mentally unbalanced thought process?

    Bringing back to the top.....

    Should hit this anytime as I finally got a few ebay wins.

    So, post the time that my feedback hits 100 on ebay and win image
    Previous winner not applicable so it is fair to others.

    Man....it's taken TWO months for this...these last few feedbacks....wow!
    So, I will null and void all previous gueses and let everyone that had guessed, guess again.....caveat is that only 1 NEW guess is allowed.

    Good luck!

    Well, kinda funny how things worked out, but I "stole" a pretty SAE from TonedPeaceNut, as well as a couple other ebay items from others during the last couple of weeks and TPN ended up being the 100th ebay feedback!
    Kinda cool that a fellow forumite was the breaker for me. He also snuck it in on me during the long holiday weekend so I am just now getting around to this.

    In honor of the fact it was a fellow forumite, I will give TWO prizes on this part of the contest. I will also ADD one more winner/prize since someone made an early guess and came pretty close and I want to reward that early risk taker!

    May 29, 2005 12:50pm is the day/time that it was posted on ebay and that is the day/time I consider winning. So, who got closest????

    Thank you to all that entered and guessed and I really did not think it would take 2 1/2 months to complete this portion of the contest. imageimageimageimageimageimageimageimageimageimageimage


    1st place: Darkmane snuck in with the last post and got the closest! Congrats! He pulled the old "Price is Right" trick and came out on top with the May 28th, 2005 @ 6:57pm guess
    2nd place: Carl with his post of May 31, 2005--1:00PM guess
    3rd place: Fivecents with his 5/26/05 guess on the first day I started the contest!

    Winners, please PM me with your address and we can discuss which of a couple of items you want.


    So, what are the choices for the winner(s) now?

    A choice of any one of the below (some items can be duped and each winner can get the same and some items can't...so, if the 1st winner (Darkmane) wants it, then the 2nd winner needs an alternative):


    (a) 10 Ikes (Appear AU/BU to me. Are raw and part of a mini-hoard of raw Ikes I have). If chosen, winner can choose pretty much the year/MM (yeah, except for something like 1973 which I don't have)
    (b) 2001 P&D (10 of each) BU Kennedys from a USMint bag I bought last year
    (c) 1968 Jefferson Nickel in PCGS PR69 (the early winner chose this but I had a couple of them)
    (d) 2004 or 2005 (gotta check) BU SAE
    (e) 40 raw BU 2005-D Bison nickels.

    Yeah, you would like getting stiffed™, wouldn't ya? image (sorry...thought you were cockney from the OF for a moment.

    Heh...you got STIFFED™ twice if you think about it (open wound, rub in salt).....the loss of a pretty SAE and then YOU gave the 100th feedback for someone else to win image

    Tell ya what, let the 3 winners take their pics, and if you are still doing the west coast July 4th YN giveaway with Ken, I will send one of the remaining prize options to you for that.
    Sound ok to you?



    btw....I thought about telling you the feedback thing when I realized I was at 99 and waiting for your feedback, but I figured I did NOT want to influence this in any way. It was done au naturale
