LOTS FOR EMAIL AND LIVE CHAT/AUCTION OF NOVEMBER, 1998, WITH CURRENT BID STATUS
Only TWO DAYS left to get your e-mail bids in for the Big November Auction! Lots of bids received so far! If you've submitted a bid, be sure to check the CURRENT HIGH BID numbers below to make sure you're still high - you may want to rebid if you've been outbid by another collector!
Following are the lots for auction throughout the month of November, along with the curent high bids. We culminate with the live chat/auction session on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, December 2-4, 1998 on Prodigy. The October auction, the first time we tried this format, was such a success we're doing it again. The October auction experience was obviously very useful, and consignors paid attention! There are several token lots here this month, and quite a few lots with no minimum bid requirements. You asked for it......you got it! Now it's time to bid!
If you cannot attend the live auction (only Prodigy members can actually be present live), all you have to do is send me an e-mail with your bid (even dollar amounts only, please). E-mail bidders DO win lots! Please be sure that I have all e-mail bids by 6:00 pm EDT on Monday, November 30. DO NOT REPLY TO THIS NOTE TO BID: instead, send me an e-mail at ChipCollector@prodigy.com.
Throughout the month of November, I will be posting notes here to update everyone on the status of bids received. Like a live bid board, you'll be able to see the amount of the highest bid, and adjust yours accordingly.
The consignor's names do not appear as part of the lot listing, nor will high bidders' names appear when I post updated e-mail bids. I will post a complete list of prices realized after the auction, and will include the consignor's and successful bidders' names and e-mail addresses for each lot at that time. IT IS THE SUCCESSFUL BIDDER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO CONTACT THE CONSIGNOR BY E-MAIL AFTER THE AUCTION, to make arrangements for payment and shipping. Unless specified otherwise in the description of the lot, THE BUYER PAYS FOR SHIPPING.
If you intend to participate in the auction, it will be necessary to PRINT OUT THIS LIST OF LOTS, because the descriptions here are the only ones you'll be able to refer to. Lots will be auctioned by number only.
There are some very valuable and rare chips included, as well as some token lots and non-chip/token lots, so this auction should be fun for all! Every consignor is a member of CC>CC and is therefore bound by the club's code of ethics. Send me your e-mail bids soon!
