Re: Aristocrat Five shilling token

I'll have a shufty through the buckets of tokens I have. In the mean time congratulations on your first posting.

Are you the chap who held up his buyer's card continually until the lot was knocked down? If so, you were determined to have it. If not .... don't know what I'm talking about.

Re: Coventry 2011

If it was in a green box then yes I did see it. It was sitting on the stage at the end of the day. Perhaps Jerry scooped it up with the rest of the debris, but I really don't know.

If so I guess it gives you the perfect excuse to visit his arcade or come to next year's event. :cool:

Re: Coventry 2011

Hearty Thanks to you all, you made it another soopah doopah day. Jerry will get around to listing the hammer prices in The Arena after an extended and successful course of Mogadon in a dark room. When I last saw him he was standing peering at a lonely bandit sitting on the floor in the middle of the...

Re: Auction Disaster for me.... I never made it! :-(

...today I am laying in bed with a chronic chest infection, laryngitis and a temperature. Bad luck Cheeky, the force doesn't appear to be with you.

Re: RE-CHROME

Best of luck chap. I've never had any success having Jennings replated. I believe the secret is something to do with having the Ally plated in something else first, otherwise it just shrugs it.
The other way round it is to take up stamp collecting instead.

Re: Ebay & Gambling Licence

It would mean a change in the law which would mean time in Parliament, when there are many more urgent matters. It would not help the MP who championed it in the eyes of those who voted him there ................ in fact it may make those who weren't enthusiasts critical of him and what he was spend...

Re: Coventry 2011

Jerry is currently wrestling with both the compilation of the catalogue and the magazine, he is on target. Not wishing to add to his workload, but so far as on line is concerned, what usually happens is a selection of photos tends to be added to his website about the same time. I'm sure he won't min...
