Fast Marina Magazine

.. spoken in true Baldric style..!

I am closely following the two Marinas on Trademe over here - Ben linked pics on the 'Dang' thread.

The Mk3 has reached reserve at $1005 and stayed put since.
I plan to up the bid at the eleventh hour and keep it going until the opposition gets tired or falls over - to a maximum of about $1600.

The TC has received no bids at all - it has featured several times before at around $2500 but not left the starting blocks.
It has a starting bid of $1500 - but the seller has already indicated that the reserve is $2000.
I shall also leave this one until late - then bid $1500 - in the knowledge that if he really wants to quit it - he is likely to make a fixed price offer to all bidders.
I figure $2000 is my top limit.

I have absolutely no idea where on earth I'm going to keep them - my yard is already full to overflowing - but they both have cloth seats, and they are worth heaps..!

(must be an 'age' thing)

WooHoo.
Hope Sue's credit card has a fair bit of leeway. Mine's maxed out already and my enquiries today about raising the limit were met with polite indignation. Seems I have to pay to get back to the current limit before they will raise it.
No sense of humour at all..!

Can't they see its an EMERGENCY!!

you got pm m8

So far - so good...

Have just won the auction for the 1981 Mk3.
The TC was passed in as it did not reach reserve of $2000 - although the seller had already disclosed that fact - so I put a bid in at just over $1500 so that my name would appear as an interested party - thinking he might make a fixed price offer.
Instead - he immediately relisted - so its back with the same first bid of $1500 - perhaps the reserve will have come down.
I will keep an eye on it to see what transpires.

Meanwhile - I'm waiting for the Mk3 seller to notify me..

More anon.
