AUCTION: Variegated Trichocereus cuzcoensis

[teonanacatl]

Im regretfull that i must do this but i need textbooks so one of my variegated T. cuzcoensis is up for sale.

The one for sale is only 5cm high but is the most highly variegated of the ones i have, over half the cactus. It is about 2 years old. Being highly variegated it grows alot slower then the others. I have no idea commercially what it is worth but i have a reserve on it for what i think its worth.

Bidding will go untill noone bids for 48hours, or if i decide to end early i will give a few days notice. I will take money or trades but im predominantly after money, if your trade is good enough i may even give up another one. If you wish to you can pm me your trades and at the end of the auction i will decide on the trade or monetary value, like that bidding software torsten was going to get. Sound fair??

Shit!!!

On ya dodie....sooooo tempted to bid one dollar higher!...but where do you stop?

Dear God!!!

[teonanacatl]

I wanna get this picture upbefore the bidding stops, so i will aim for tomorrow as i found a friend with a cam.

Well thats nearly one text book covered. Next will be a cristate pach plant but this will likely be for bond and food:S and wont be up for a few weeks possibly a month or two.

And might i say a respectfull price for such a rare plant, well worth the money as in another 2 years you will have stock to sell and will make money back easy.
