00. $100. I'm going to be honest with you right now, there's no way you're winning this one.


00. $150 We'll see about that

00. $300

90. $100
285. $20

I seem to remember a similar boast about the Talking Classics arcade machine. You gonna step up this time?

Really? I don't remember this, especially since I have no room for an arcade machine at my current place.

Now you're talkin'! I'll have to take a look at exactly what is in the care package from Valve before deciding how much higher I want to go - we'll probably have pics next week.

Don't expect that $300 will cut it though.

At this rate, we'll have the total from last year beat by the end of the first day! Awesome work everyone!

Hmm, must have been something else last years auction. I'll let it slide... for now. :twisted:

You'd think I'd want to see what's actually involved beyond your description. But you've got my blood pumping to beat you. And I've got the Child's Play auction on Tuesday as well.

It's on like Trademarked Tie-Wearing Gorilla.

Wow, last year the take was almost $1200 and we've already got that beat?

Also, I checked through last year's thread, and I've confirmed that Hobie is full of shit regarding my ability to step up.
