    I am contemplating doing the same with the rest of these items but am open to suggestions.

    Let's keep this in sight one way or another. Bid away. I can't believe that NOT ONE Coin Collector would enjoy a day of sailing on a charter boat in that area of the country during summertime! imageimage

    Can somebody auction 2 plane tickets to Newport, RI?image

    BTW-Is there a closing date (besides #1)?
    image
  • BoomBoom Posts: 10,165
    Thanx for the bids aija. I think, at this point in time, we MAY leave some closing dates open until I speak with the donors otherwise I think this particular lot should close at the same time LeeG intends to end his which is 12-04-05 at 8:00 PM EDT, Another week of looking at this group should suffice as there has been other items pledged for auction and the closer it gets to Christmas the busier I will get.

    We'll play it by ear right now until I chat with the other donors but I, for one, agree to end mine at the same date and time LeeG ends his. image

    Your bids will be duly recorded. Thank you once again.

    Best,
