G'day Stackers, And now for yet another "something completely different" Auction offering, this time it's a collection of old "Real Money" Lots (and some lots have the option of a "Double-Up" if the winners are interested and they at least beat Spot ) *Apologies in advance for the tardy updates between now (I'm currently in Bali) and tomorrow night (when I get back to Oz)...I'll endeavour to add some more info/links etc then * The Lot by adze67 posted Nov 24, 2022 at 2:10 PM Auction finish at 17:00 AWST (18:30 NT / 19:00 QLD / 19:30 SA/ 20:00 NSW/VIC/TAS) - Saturday 26th November! The auction will finish 5 minutes after the last bids, as usual, and everybody knows how that goes by now (just to clarify...any bids within the last 5 minutes extends the finish time by 5 minutes...ie a 16:57 bid gives a new finish time of 17:02...a further bid at 17:02 extends the finish to 17:07...a bid at 17:07 extends, a bid at 17:08 is too late etc etc...) *No edited Bids please, the Forum does indicate "edited" when posts are edited (look above the "Quote Reply" right hand side) so if you make a bid and it turns out the same or lower than a previous bid, please place a new post for the bid to make it higher rather than "edit" the post with the unsuccessful bid - although editing to clarify a Lot # is fine * Due to no "seconds" showing on Forum time-clock any duplicate bids with the same timestamp will be "first in line" gets the spot Each Lot Starting at FACE VALUE (or thereabouts ) which is waaaaay UNDER SPOT price!!! Postage at Winner's Choice/Cost/Risk (at this stage...) Settlement via Bank Transfer/Cash/Crypto BONUS – FREE 1/4oz Copper Round(s) for winners of Multiple Lots And without further ado, on to the Auction...8 Lots up for grabs!!!
