In other words this is exactly what you wanted to achieve in your original post. You were achieving it by not posting information to the list on the auction item, but the end result is the same. >Secondly, and more to the point, think on this scenario: >List member AAA sees a Bloggs X-500 quadruplane and figures he can >afford $20.00 and so bids, and claims "dibbs" on the list.

True the system isn't flawless but how could it be. However it has saved many of us money and typically we do get the items we bid on or the price was not worth paying since most of us know what an item is worth. It also saves a lot of bad feeling from list members who were outbid at the last minute by other list members. I've seen this in club settings before and it can cause friction that we don't need imho. > >Lastly, a gentlemans agreement is worth the paper it is printed on. >If I want a model, I will bid what I am willing to pay for it, >regardless of who else might want it. This an auction people. That is your choice and I can therefore understand your preference to keep auction info off the list . But by using your logic I can only respectfully say "Tough" Regards, Ray Boorman ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 5 Jan 2002 13:30:15 +1100 From: "Ross Moorhouse" To: Subject: Re: Slow Boat to Japan Message-ID: <006901c19590$e88760a0$3b482dcb@nsw.bigpond.net.au> Shane, If I it isn't the dragon you get to raise my 2 girls.. hehehehehe I am on a winner now..

I wanted to bid on the Smithsonian Alb.Book and posted same to see if any listee was bidding on it. I rec. an off list note that a member was bidding on it, but he said: he bid what he wanted to bid and if I wanted to bid go ahead. I responded: If someone else out bids you then I will bid on it, good luck! >From my perspective, if I want it bad enough, then I will watch e-bay to see if the listee is out bid, then bid. If that is to much trouble, then I really did not want it. In addition, since a listee bid on it first, let the bid go unless he/she is outbid. That's how I have been and tried to operate, good/bad/whatever, it suites me and I think it is courteous/fair.

My guess would be that it is the DML mold. It makes perfect sense (which is the flaw in my assumption), unless Bill Koster came up with new masters for R-M (wouldn't that be nice, hmmm?). R-M can't afford to release that old kit as I doubt that it would sell well. They know that we are jumping on and hoarding all of the DML kits and that the Hasegawa run sold out before anyone could bat an eye. However, the DML kit does have some flaws and omissions. I rather like the texture on the old Monogram D.VII's fuselage and am replicating it on my current D.VII. But we shall see...

I use it regularly and this program allows me to accept, delete, bounce and or preview all e-mails on my ISP server before downloading. It really works great and costs nothing. Almost completely eliminates spam, and allows me to check for viruses before you download the e-mail. Displays all e-mails in text only form during preview. Highly recommended, a lifesaver if using Outlook Express. Does not work with aol.com, they have a different type of proprietary e-mail program. PS - It was me who got the Junkers J-1 for US$72.00 including insured shipping. Not too much more than when this kit was brand new. The best advantage to not having to raise children is that my income is my own to spend as I like. ;^) Mike Franklin Bellingham, WA USA "No man is so hated as he who will drive the speed limit" ------------------------------ End of WWI Digest 4035 **********************
