MAGOO'S #2 VMX Magazine Auction.

[Mick D]

Ok, firstly the scan above is the exact magazine on offer, from Bruces's collection of VMX magazines. Look closely, tiny lifting of the top right hand corner and a tiny lifting of the bottom right hand corner. It certainly could not be classified as new/mint/unused. It has been used but it would easily pass as very good condition.

This is an open auction, please just place your bid/bids here for all to see.

Lets say the winning bid, will be the highest standing bid by 8pm eastern standard time on Monday the 23th of April 2012.

The winner should pay his/her winning bid amount to Ann, via Ross Campbell(rossvickicampbell)

I will then post Magoo's #2 VMX magazine to it's new owner free of charge. I guarantee it will arrive by registered signature receipt insured Australia post, in the same Very good condition that it is in now.

Yes I was extremely lucky enough to have purchased Bruce's entire VMX magazine collection. It wasn't complete, for example no #4.

Condition wise, #2 mag was the pic of his collection. I would say because it doesn't have a single Red-Devil in sight

If you would be so kind to pass on the winning bid to Bruce's family I will bid $ 200.00

If not NO BID

[Rossvickicampbell]

Ted - that is the point isn't it - this is going to Ann?

[Ted]

Sorry...I didn't read it...OK the bid is at 2 large

[Ted]

Well, This is going well

It`s not about the mag fellas...It`s about helping out someone in need

Weigh in!!!!!!!!!

[Mick D]

Hi Ted, I think your $200 bid may have scared the pants off most, it certainly did VMX247

Also, I have been told that Bruce’s family are managing OK.

But yes we all know or can imagine how difficult it can be sticking to a budget whilst raising three maturing offspring

I reckon it is a bit about the magazine too. I Have stored them well to maintain the exact condition I purchased them in. I wasn't a close friend to Bruce at all, but he was a good and decent friend to me. I figure that if they are shared-out,,,, well it may be a chance for some of those who actually were close to him to have a similar feeling of remembering him every time one of these Mags are opened.

No argument with me if someone ups the bid at the last moment. The time logged by the forum clock of any bid, will be the Judge. That is 07:59:59 PM(EST) is in, but once it has rolled over to 08:00:00 PM it will be NO WAY HOSAY, TOO LATE, SORRY WE ARE CLOSED

[Ted]

Well Mick,
               If i win it, How about i keep it for a month to read and i`ll send it back to you ( free of charge ) so you can put it back out there for the lower bidders to have a go at.

Regards

Ted Brack

$300.00

Come on Ted you can do better than that

[Ted]

OK 61,
         If you win it and Mick sends it to me for one month and then i will on-send it to you to keep i will still tip in $ 200.00

That will make it a combined bid of 500 big ones.

Any family would appreciate that amount.

Deal or no deal

Regards

Ted

[Ted]

61...You only have 8 mins to take up my offer

[HVA61]

Ted

Apologies for the delayed reply.

i can go for that , "are we still on"

[Ted]

We`re on....Let`s brighten up someones day a little bit

Over to you Mick

[Mick D]

Wow. Well done boys, that sort of team spirit is infectious

So here we go then, I also purchased a couple of boxes, the last odds and ends after the clean out of Bruce’s garage. I have sold about $500 of bits and pieces so far. If we add that $500 we can call it a nice round $1000.
Meant to be I reckon.

[Mick D]

Hi Ted, PM me your postal address please and choose whatever path of payment to Ann that you are happy with.

Rossco, thanks for your help, but I know HVA61 will hand deliver this money (around the corner)to Ann. As I said, Thanks

[Ted]

Get 61 to call me on 0407004473 and i will take the cash to him
Cheers

[Rossvickicampbell]

Gents - just happy for the money to get to Ann - if need be at any time it can be paypaled to me and I will cover paypal costs and get it to Ann.

Let me know how you get on?

regards

[Ted]

Have delivered my share to Ribbo this afternoon and i believe 61 is doing same. Ribbo will get funds to Ann.

[Mick D]

Hey Ted that's great news.

I will contact Ribbo now and do the same thing. Cheers.

[Ted]

Received mag today. Thanks Mick. I will on-send it to 61 shortly who i believe is putting it back up for auction for someone to keep.
