    Can't see the pics Ramm

    For everyone's benefit, we are allowing this sort of thread for charity sales of this nature, but please run it past the mods first (as Raam did)

    OK now?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,526 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Any bids Raam?

    If not, I'll kick off with 200.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,317 ✭✭✭✭Raam


    You're the first. Thanks for the bid.

    I just realised that I never said how long I will keep it open. I'll give it a few days anyway to see how it goes.

    One millio-, oh wait. Holding at €250, it's all I can afford right now.

    When's the closing date for this? Just so I can snipe if necessary.

    Just in case there is a last minute flurry of activity and I'm not here at the time, the auction ends at 12pm, so any bids made on or after 12pm will not be accepted.

    Wishbone Ash kindly made an extra donation of 30e which I have included in the donation which I made to give a total of 300e.
