    Well, at least I don't feel so bad getting outbid now... :)

    It was funny, my younger daughter woke up just after 1AM, I settled her back down and I checked the auction thinking it was close to ending. It was, and I upped my bid since I wasn't comfortable with where it was, and went back to sleep. Woke up this morning and saw I lost it... was bummed but I hoped it was at least someone on here. Thankfully it found a proper new home.

    Please do me a favor and post some pics of that puppy when you get it, I'm really interested in how it looks in-hand. But then again I might end up more jealous if it turns out to be as good as I think it can be.... ;)

    I have the same feeling you do prime. It's probably going to be a serious stunner. Of course I will post pics :)
    I also appreciate you not bidding it up more. I put in a max bid that I probably shouldn't have.

    Lol Ken! Someone's gotta do it.

    Heh, to be honest the bid I put in was more than I probably should have also, but sometimes you just gotta. :D

    But, I can't be too sad, I did pick these up recently:

    Beautiful prime. Not to mention, I've seen your stack of brown boxes. You can let one little Ike get through to my meager collection.

    Thanks... :)

    And yep, I can let a few fall through I suppose... :devil: although for sure I'd give up a few for some of the ones you've landed. :thumb:

    I saw that and forgot to mention it to you guys. Glad you one of you snagged it.

    I didn't notice that either... kryptonite usually has some good toners I've seen.

    One thing that worries me tho is the really dark, almost black on the OBV from 11-12 o'clock... hoping it's not terminal.

    But, if it's not, that could be pretty nice in hand. Good catch.

    Cherrypicked another MMS-1. I believe this one to be an earlier die state than the last one i picked up, however it is only a PR68DCAM where as the other was PR69DCAM.

    Greg, holy cow that thing is a beauty! Nice job, and yes, I am for sure jealous... ;-P

    Promise me that if you ever do want to sell it you'll hit me up first... :)

    This one is off being DIVA'ed as well. It will probably go back for sale once I get it back if anyone is interested in Varieties.
