​Hope to see you soon.

The Convention is only a few days away. On Monday I have to submit the number of attendees to our caterer. If you are coming, and haven't yet registered, PLEASE do now! If you register after I submit the numbers, I can't guarantee we will have food for you.

I hope to see you next weekend.​

I'll be there!

Wow... the grand majority of that stuff went cheap. Man. Too bad I am in the southern part of the country now where a little 12" porthole people want $150 for... Unrestored.

That's the funny thing about auctions; everything sold for exactly what it was worth that day. ;-)

Yea, I guess so. Things are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them. Seems shows like Storage Wars, American Pickers, etc have ruined it all. Honestly.

A lot of the prices went down because there were (as I recall) about 160 lots and maybe 75 guys there to bid. And every one of those guys had a limit to the space in their vehicles.

Well, except Julian :D

hahah. Well that make sense.

Well me not being in Ohio anymore and the urge of me wanting to return to the hobby a little bit makes it a bit more difficult now. But hey, ;-)
