Jeez, I go away for a little bit to try to sell a guy a bike and it's all the way to 80.00 already. Aw, what the hell, it's for a good cause, I'll go 90.00 Dave | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
ooh Henrik, wow, that WOULD be a score! i MIGHT have an extra one. i've moved three times since i bought the S2 and i've still got a lot of stuff in boxes. thanks for the bid, and i'll keep you posted.  | ||

Can I trade my color wheel for a BTW #1?  Let me know if you do want to run an eBay auction, I've got a stack of Buell stuff I need to put up tonight anyway. | ||
| Court |
Josh: Bid or go away you geek! Could we sell Ferris on e-Bay? That a violation of the TOS? | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
$90 for the B2W, wow, thank you Dave!!! do i hear...??? | ||
| Daves |
All I know is that better be one nice magazine!  Dave | ||
| Bomber |
phew . . . .gettin a bit rich for this FIB, er, FBI . . . . . . I blieve I'll bow to Brer Daves, and let him enjoy the issue Jer, what else ya got? | ||
| Daves |
It's not over yet Bomber. By the way, how long is this auction? Should let everyone have a chance at it. Ride to the edge! Dave | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
Could we sell Ferris on e-Bay? geez, how embarassing would it be to not get any bids?  | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
Bomber, i'll post some more pix this afternoon or evening, thanks for bidding healthy and often. Dave, a suggestion as to how long each item should be up for grabs? | ||
| Bomber |
I'll bit a dollar! I got some oil that needs changing! (Daves, you're right, and I may loose my mind again, and soon) | ||
| Mikej |
I'd suggest 24 hours per item as a minimum. Daves, It would look very nice in a plexiglass mount in your office. Put a little locking transparent door on it. Sure wish the magazine hadn't ended, oh well.... | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
Dave, the B2W is PERFECT (unless you have a bad case of Court-o-phobia, that is...)    edited by jerry_haughton on June 10, 2004 | ||

Wow, complete with a picture of Court for 90.00! I will be locking it away in the vault, after I read it cover to cover a couple times. That is if I "win"(an Ebay term for paying more then anyone else was willing to pay) the auction. 24 hours sounds fair to me. Ride to the edge! I gotta go sell a couple bikes now!!

Dave, buddy, it sounds like your resolve is slipping! Think about what a good cause we're supporting. Think about the fame and glory when you win. Think about keeping it on top of the toilet tank and looking at Court's picture every time you're on the throne. Then top this: $100.00 r-t | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
how does 24 hours to the minute from the time of the first posted bid on an item sound? i.e., Dave’s initial bid on the B2W was "Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 11:23 a.m.", so no bids accepted after 11:23 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Friday? | ||
| Road_thing |
Jeez, this could get ugly...I was hoping to hear the sound of a gavel! r-t | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
$100.00 from the Texas Oil Typhoon - THANKS! do i hear...??? | ||
| Bomber |
Hey Dave -- how much do we wanna soak the Oil man from Tejas . . . I'm thinkin we can wring nuther 50 outa him (Sharp Dressed Man playing in the background) | ||
| Road_thing |
Just got paid today...  ...got me a pocket full of change! r-t | ||
| Blake |
Jerry, I say let each item go until 24 hours pass without a higher bid, at least $5 higher, just like a regular auction, but longer. You know, the old going once, going twice, SOLD the Thing in Texas. (just as an example) | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
Blake, sounds good, and thanks for letting me do this. Alex hasn't seen it yet (he's BURIED finishing up at Kettering Univ.; got an e-mail from his yesterday morning, he said he'd just knocked out three final exams in 36 hours), but i hope he's pleased when he does. thanks again. r-t: You didn't have to do me like you did, like you did, like you did, but I thank you." | ||

Ferris, Just cruised in and saw this. You are awesome. Can't wait to meet up in person in a few short weeks. I'm hoping to give American Sport Bike Al a call later this evening, and see what we may be able to throw together in SoCal for a kickoff for the trip. That is exciting. Thanks a ton to everyone who's bidding, it's going for a great cause. I'm getting more and more excited about this trip everyday, hope I can meet as many of you as possible on the way. Buellers truly are the greatest. Alex | ||
| Road_thing |
By the way, FB, didja get that pulley? | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
Alex, lookin' forward to finally hooking up with you, see you soon! r-t, got it, thanks! Court, you're the best! | ||
| Court |
No. 24 hours twinxt bids denies us what our generation demands...INSTANT GRATIFICATION. I say end the existing auctions at midnight (CDT) today. So shall it be. I WANT MY WHEEL ! $65 | ||
| Bomber |

| Jerry_haughton |
Court, for $75 i'll end the wheel auction right now. $110 for the B2Win - Bomber, YOU are the man! Dave and r-t, got anything for him??? | ||
| Hootowl |
