[Percy]

ARRRRGGGGHHHH. I bid a hundred bucks without checkin and the thing laffed at me......Its at 102.50 right now......just whut kinda syrop issat anyhow???? I gotta sell some Cedar before this thing gets away froim me......... :P

[Frank_Pender]

Percy, you know what I think?   I believe there is a ringer in this bidding for the syrup.   I haves been to enough auction to tell what is happening.  Someone going to get you out on a high limb and you will have bought a quart of syrup for your Northern grits. :'(

[Tom]

There is a ringer alright, a Bell Ringer, and it looks like more than one.  Percy's one and I have to admire someone who finds a way to support to this extent.  Go Get'em Percy!  8)

Holy Smoke! You can't help but admire these guys. 

[Frank_Pender]

Tom, Percy may be using an eyedropper to place his Maple Syrup, just to be careful that he dose not lose some to the floor or table napkin. 8)

[Tom]

That's some expensive syrup, for sure.  But, ain't it great that he has chosen to support the forum with such exuberance?

Where's Percy from?  They, might raise a statue commending his philanthropy, in the town square.   I'll vote for him.  :D

DanG it! >:(
Somebody keeps out biddin' me. I'll have to count my penneys to see if I can get that syrup to its rightful owner.

It is pure West Michigan Maple Syrup and its dark amber.  If you would have been at the piggy roast you could of had tried some. (Our syrup is not the buddy syrup-buddy syrup is when they collect the sap from trees that are budding and this can be bitter). The Amish around here seem to mix it all together and it ain't very good syrup.

If this Michigan weather don't straighten up and stay cold they won't be a sap run this year.  Which will make that jar all the valuable. 

[Mrs._Stump_Jumper]

[Jeff]

Its a shame there was a mistake on this auction or we would have been all set for our support for the year!  Someone accidently bid

$11,000!

But they retracted it because it was a mistake. :-\

We would have made the National news I bet if we would have sold a quart Jar with Maple Syrup in it for $11,000!

[Percy]

ArrrhhhhhhGGGGGGG!!!! I done goofed up. The Lt70 hadda loose  ground wire on the hyd.pump solonoid that took forever to find and I had to get this order done, and got back too late...... SO, just who is mobilesaw...issat you Frank?? Congtrats to who ever it is and Im sure your support is appreciated.......so....Whats next?? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

[mike_van]

Jeff, twice i've had to retract bids - They should not have put the comma and the dot next to each other on the keyboard -  Once I did 577,50  using the comma [late at night, no glasses]  The thing takes it upon it self to just add three zeros, thus my bid came out 57,500.00.  At least it wasn't a last second one - I had time to retract it.    :D

[Jeff]

I've come close. I am glad they have that final check screen, I have got as far as that more then once.

[Jeff]

I'll move this to our auction archive and away from being a sticky but I am waiting for Franky to get his syrup and lets us know about it. Hopefully tomorrow.

[Frank_Pender]

Thank you Jeffory!  I will be waiting.  I believe I will be having pancakes for supper if the USPS comes through.  I hope it does not become a wait and see, like for an fallers ax.  heee hhhhheeee heeee hhhhhheeee 8) :'(

[Frank_Pender]

No show today. :'( :'(  I am sure glad I did not have my tastebuds set for pancakes and syrup.

[etat]

better be glad you ain't getting it through FEX (%$#$%%) EX
