man thanks good.

Got to love the spirit here.

Shame i've not got he money. uumm the dangers of a credit card.

Fantastic auction but would the sum of seperate auctions not exceed the total as one biggie?
I realise that is not how the auction started but the generosity of the community has changed the field a bit.
Just my pennysworth (not a bid)

Things like THIS is what the Rep tool is for!!!! - Such a shame some 'bad kids' spoiled the game for the rest of us!

So i'd like to echo others comments by saying :You_Rock_ guys!



Sadly I can't afford to bid but to add to the 'pot' surely the winner needs something to carry things in so I'll add this to the stash!

Ok it is not to the standard of some others here but it does the job (and i'll bung in a shiny chartube as well )

 

[British Red]

I'm getting soo tempted to bid here

But ...I just paid to post that axe

If it doesn't go up though......

Urgh the temptation of a credit card.... Since I'm just starting to put kit together, this is very hard to resist.....

 

[MitchelHicks]

Can someone do a summary of everything in the pot and the highest bid price please.

Mitch

 

[MitchelHicks]

......1x Stuart Marsh knife blade

Mitchell.... My name is Stuart Mitchell.... I was born in the year 1970, began a 7 year apprenticeship in the cutlery industry at the age of 15 yrs. At the age of 25 I took over the family business, Pat Mitchell (Cutlers), and just recently made the decision to begin branding my knives as Stuart Mitchell, not Pat Mitchell....

At least the Stuart is spelt correctly though



Okay, I've tidied up the posts a bit so the others say Stuart Mitchell, and cleared out some that don't make sense now too
Cheers,
Toddy

I've just been reading through all the posts on this thread. Unfortunately I can't make a bid but I did get very emotional at all the good will and generousity being displayed on the site. It makes me very proud to share thoughts etc. with you guys.

For my part I'll post direct to the winner... Not sure when it ends but the blade will be ready by the end of next week.... As for proof, I would dearly hope it wouldn't be needed, I'm sure it could be organised though

If the prizes can be sent direct to the winning bidder, when the funds have been put into the Just Giving site http://www.justgiving.com/runningforTeenageCancerTrust , that would be the easiest. I would ask the winning bidder to pm the prize givers with their address...
