I need to get up there soon. I would love to see your collection. Hit me up with what you got extra... factory sealed wise that is.

Heh, just talked to someone on the phone. Guess there are some good deals around (didn't get details). Apparently there's an M8 for sale and the auction has just started with things like a Win, Lose, or Draw sealed case.

I'm bidding by phone on Ditka SE and Sudoku gold, so will let you know what happens.

I won the Sudoku, backed out on Ditka.

Listened to the bidding on the phone and it zoomed up to $500 before I even put in a bid.

damn man, you paid handsomely for it. If had more money you would have lost

I only could have gone $400 on it, but oh well. Glad it is in good hands? Who ended up with the other stuff? Chunkout exclusive sounds rad, I had one at NWCGE 2K8 as a prize in the Chunkout 2 compitition... this was made just for that show.

anyway, glad you got one of the golds, i doubt I ever will now.

Yeah, it'll definitely stay in my collection, prominently on display. I'm not sure who ended up with the other stuff, but I think Chunkout went to MB7241.

I'm guessing that the Gold Sudoku will be available at $400 from someone. There are, after all, 100 of them out there. Happy my $ went to Al. edit: oops, 10. Um, maybe it will be tougher to get than expected.

yeah it will be a real bitch to get one, that is why i wanted to sang this one. I already have a grey limited one, but now i need this one. I doubt I will be able to pry it from someone's collection.

From what I hear they tried calling you... I heard in the background that they didn't get an answer on your phone?

I sent him a text message this morning asking him what time abouts the auction would be. No response... I needed to know cause I had landscaper coming over to give me a bid on putting in my lawns, sprinkler system, etc... Wouldn't you know it they called me right when he was here. I called back less than 5 minutes after they called me but got no answer... SUCKS, someone got a deal on the Ditka as my top bid woulda been over $250 for sure!

Ugh, sorry to hear that man. Burdger kept asking if I wanted in on the auction but I wasn't that excited after the Sudoku.

yeah I thought it would have gone a bit higher too. I wish I would have asked Paul to bid on it for me if I lost the Sudoku (which I did). Oh well, good deal to someone.

Erik, I was standing right next to Will as he was trying to call you. It got so loud in there no one must have heard his phone ring

I can't thank Ross enough for representing me at the auction and it sounds like we missed out on a lot. Can't wait for folks to start posting pictures of their hauls!

I don't remember much about the door prizes, but I walked away with a FC Mobile. Traded it for a frisbee.

I wasn't too worried about it, I just wanted to buy a few things I hesitated on from a dealer. I already emailed him....I guess $700ish was bad enough for one day....
