WoodDragon Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) 45 seconds? You aren't much of a sniper, are you H?if you're game, you play it with 2 - 5 seconds to go, depends on how good your connection is. Dudes, guys... Don't stuff around with manual bids - I've lost auctions this way when the connection's failed at the last moment. One word: Quicksnipe. It's free no matter how many times you use it, and it's never failed me. Of course, I'll never win another cactus auction again, now that I've opened my big gob!

hebrew Posted May 11, 2009 so how muhc should be we go up to, what is our maximum amount to bid on this cactus? 300? 500? not that i think it iwill get that high i just wanna know the limit what you think, ending today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chiral Posted May 11, 2009 250should clinch it i'd say..i'll be watching with baited breath around the time ...fingers crossed..place that high bid at about 30 seconds to go should snare it H. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ayjay101 Posted May 11, 2009 250should clinch it i'd say..i'll be watching with baited breath around the time ...fingers crossed..place that high bid at about 30 seconds to go should snare itH. Yeah I second that. If we get it for $250 (hopefully much less) that would be $25 each which is what most of us seem happy enough to go up to. Good luck with the bidding VS, I'll be watching Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hebrew Posted May 11, 2009 could someone tell me the end time as what i am getting is not right with the time left and the end time int he post shoudl be 4.44 is that right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chiral Posted May 11, 2009 (edited) yeah 4.44 or possibly 4.43pm I note that there is already a bid do we know who that bid belongs to...? Edited May 11, 2009 by Hunab Ku Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilligan Posted May 11, 2009 (edited) KK242 Anyone else reckon it's a 242? I'm thinking along the same lines as bit... guess we never know if we never go though... Edited May 11, 2009 by gilligan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

prier Posted May 11, 2009 she died a few months ago. her son is selling it off. fuck him. i loved that garden. good luck bidding. there's going to be a bit of competition, there's also a garden club showing a fair bit of interest. The plant is a Trichocereus peruvianus, the typical form you find in Victoria. not a kk242. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hebrew Posted May 11, 2009 thanks for the heads up for the competition, we will see how it goes i guess. sad to hear she died. ever heard about potency prier? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chiral Posted May 11, 2009 only idiots bid so early....I never understand why people bid on anything so early it just doesn't make sense... perhaps consider at 300 dollar ceiling at 30 secs VS...I'm off out to take my daughter for a walk in the park and will return to watch the action...should be interesting.
