Oooh. This is so exciting! If anyone in Vancouver/Burnaby needs a ride, I can pick them up at any Skytrain station along the Millenium Line at about 10:15AM.

Not to be outdone by Chris here's a few of my own teasers:

Yellow Tonga Leather


Mutant Boy Scout Zoas under actinics

Hi,

How long will the auction windows be? How many are planned between 11-3? Just trying to plan how long I can stay. Thanks!

It is a silent auction so pretty much everything is being bid upon at the same time. Various items will close at different times, so you might not have to stay the entire time to buy something.

Thanks to the Reef Network for putting on a great frag auction. I appreciate all the work you guys had to do to put this event together. It was unfortunate the turn out was not very good. But the deals were amazing. Purple death palys sold for 5-8 $ per polyp where they normally sell for $40 per polyp or more. Red Devil palys that sell for $15 per polyp sold for $20 for a 6-7 polyp frag. And there was even better deals on other frags that were sold as well. So many different types of SPS at fantastics prices The purple monster was my favorite. Superman monti for $10 Score!!!


With a low turn out like today, would it be worth Reef Network to even bother hosting another event?

Anyhow it was nice to meet some new faces and chat with everyone. Thanks again.

Cheers

Wow, I am surprised to hear the turn out was low

I thought for sure it would be packed. I obviously missed it since I had found some deals on stuff I wanted at tank shut downs today but would have still liked to have made it...just didn't work time wise.

How many people are we talking??? Was it really that quiet?

Thanks to the reef network for a fabulous auction. Even though I came late, picked up some great deals. If only my 120 was set up...

Well if you go by how many people posted that they were planning on attending. Yes it was low. But it was still a decent turn out with new faces. So that's always possitive. It's a fair amount of work to host an event. And for the people selling their frags ,the cutting ,the bagging etc etc it takes time too. I just wonder if it is worth it for everyone that's all. It is for me personally but I enjoy these events.
