Auction needed

Post by Thurman15 » Thu Dec 06, 2018 9:13 am

Come on guys, we need an auction before Christmas. We can't wait till January. Greg....Tom....Darik....Andy....Todd Zola.....someone organize one. Just one to tide us over. There must be 15 guys that want a crack at Mike Trout, Mookie Betts or Max Scherzer.

Sure, we can add a $125 Mixed Online Auction league whenever the masses want one. Find a consensus on the date and time and we'll add it to Registration today. Are there 15 auction die-hards ready at this time? The software is ready, so if demand is there we will run it.

Thanks.

Whatever you guys want. We can offer either one or both. Let us know what you'd prefer and a date and we'll put it on registration. Lowest entry would be $125. Other options are $250 and $500.

Thanks guys. Either FAAB or DC would be fine. And I would keep it $125 or $250 just to attract more guys. Lets see who else might respond and maybe pick a date.

OK we can go with a $125 DC Auction. Give us a date/time and we'll put it on registration if more interest comes in. Thanks.

I'm interested, and could do it pretty much any evening - preferably starting no later than 7 ET, since I know these can take some time.

Lets try for a Monday or Tuesday evening, when there is less going on for people's personal life. I'm also fine with $125 DC. Would eithe Monday December 17 or Tuesday December 18 be good for the guys that have expressed interest ? 7 pm est. I will let a couple of guys state their preference and maybe we can swing this.
