Not really, only if you want it to work would electricity be required.... There's no guarantee that Ed would get both. Thank you for your bid, this auction is exciting to say the least... Re: Coffee mug auction - Charlie B - 02-10-2014 this needs a bump...... Re: Coffee mug auction - eightyeightfan1 - 02-10-2014 Ok. I'll bump it up to 41. Re: Coffee mug auction - faraway - 02-10-2014 42 and it's on the other side of the pond and still limited to coffee only at my home office Re: Coffee mug auction - ezdays - 02-15-2014 We have a winner with a last minute bid of $42 by faraway.... We thank all that have bid. Not only is Reinhard getting a valued memento, but he has advanced the cause of Big Blue by helping to maintain these forums. Thank you kind sir, Mikey will be in touch with you to arrange payment and shipping. We are so pleased with the response to this auction, that we just might do it again soon. Re: Coffee mug auction - faraway - 02-15-2014 Re: Coffee mug auction - Sumpter250 - 02-15-2014 Reinhard, Many Thanks for you support, Pete Re: Coffee mug auction - torikoos - 02-18-2014 Congrats Reinhard! As for other auctions, I'm all ears. I would suggest some realistically weathered modern freight cars (box cars/gondolas etc) , even without the bigblue logo (or some subtle reference in applied graffiti perhaps) , I would bet those would fetch a premium ;-) Not only would they look nice on a shelf, they would also be operated on a layout without looking unrealistic. What do you think? Koos Re: Coffee mug auction - ezdays - 02-18-2014 torikoos Wrote:Congrats Reinhard!We are open to any kind of auction that will attract bidders and make our members happy. Bear in mind though, the idea behind what we're doing right now is to celebrate our fifth anniversary as Big Blue. We've been doing things like this for a long time, we had both HO and N scale "Gauge" car tours a good ten years ago and we had the same "Big Blue anniversary car tours a few years ago. We'd like to get our forum logo on layouts and any other place we can, and this is one way of doing it. Thank you for your idea, we'll keep it in mind for future auctions, I know it'll go over big when we do it. All we'll need is one of our master modelers to do justice to a car that we can auction off. We'll ask when we're ready.

Glad it made it safe and sound .... (no rattling in the package I hope) Re: Coffee mug auction - ngauger - 03-01-2014 Great News!! We'll be looking forward to seeing the picture Re: Coffee mug auction - faraway - 03-03-2014 The mug "at work" and the preferred place during breaks. Elevated at the west window looking home ps. The wrapping was perfect! Re: Coffee mug auction - ngauger - 03-03-2014 That's a great looking water tower for that building! Glad it made it there in one piece too. Re: Coffee mug auction - ezdays - 03-03-2014 Wow, that is one versatile coffee mug. A real keeper.... |
