SERIOUS bidders do not show their hands this early in the auction.

Yeah, I'd agree with that. Way too early to show your hand on an online auction--unless it's that 9500 guy that called him before. We'll know one way or the other, cause he doesn't really know any other venue to sell the machine. It's too bad, I was looking forward to that next NR auction. Ah well....wasn't gonna be mine nohow. :'>

Hey guys,
watching this thread develop from over the pond has been real fun and kinda interesting you know
people are kinda upset that they didn't get this mean rare machine for just $1800........................................
then hey, he's kinda greedy for wanting more than the soda guys book price,[lets say $4-$7k] for this machine in its present condition...................................................
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
seems kinda harsh guys!
my old learned finance director, [many years ago], told me, items sell for what someone is prepared to pay for it, if two people are prepared to pay, then the price goes higher, til one drops out.
i have no idea what this machine will sell for, neither does the seller, thats his problem, [but nice problem!]. One thing is for sure, it will keep the forum lively!
and when the next royal crown 81 turns everyone will be saying
hey remember the last one that sold for $XXXX or maybe should that read $XXXXX?
KIND REGARDS

i am kinda busy grinding off my coca cola letters and stirring my yellow paint and ..................................... "wheres my bondo"

Right you are Ginger. We need to keep this interesting!
We need a few fictitious E-bay bidder names to drive his bid price up at the end to about $9.5 million and film him as he wets his pants '>

Darn it Moondawg, I almost shorted out my monitor reading your post and taking a swig of Coke at the same time. And GP, you make valid points, and i'll comment on those as soon as I finish wiping up my desk...
