I'll ask about that next time. It would have come in <i>handy</i> (get it?).<br /><br />Sudha - This is the kind of auction that I can handle. Not having to wait around for a bunch of stuff I'm not interested in made it a lot easier!<br /><br />Nick - The blue sectional is probably a temp. I'm not entirely sure I'm going to keep it.<br /><br />Anonymous - With tax and buyer's premium it was just under $160. Maybe not the greatest bargain I've ever managed to acquire, but I doubt I'd ever find one any cheaper!Mr. Modtomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804031065414619749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-91270932139644675502011-11-13T17:17:26.211-06:002011-11-13T17:17:26.211-06:00i really like that table the base sets it off,i se...i really like that table the base sets it off,i seen that on there page and thought is was taller.<br />is it appropriate to ask what you got it for<br />9not asking to get so as to buy,wondering<br /><br />lg washingtonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-54875492195371135132011-11-13T10:28:39.652-06:002011-11-13T10:28:39.652-06:00How's that new couch working out for you?

A half bid is usually indicated by holding your hand flat with the palm down. For example, if an item was at $50 and the auctioneer called for $75, that gesture would put your bid at $62.50. <br /><br />Glad you had a good time and came home with something you love!Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.com
