WE HAVE 150 LOTS IN TOTAL .................. AND THE PERMIT MUST DETAIL THEM ALL, SO...........

.......... for this year anyway we can't accept any more machines, as I have to apply for it now!
We have some really exciting entries, Jerry has sent the catalogue to the printers along with the next edition of the magazine.

We both agree this auction looks to be a cracker. Well done everyone.

Directions to the venue should be finished tonight. We're on the final lap.

Aha! ........... what I said was "we can't accept any more machines", because of the need for them to be detailed on the permit. I didn't say "no more entries".
Although of course, any late entries of books, parts and paperwork etc. won't appear in the catalogue.

Many thanks for the kind words.
And also for your support ...... I shall wear it always!
Maybe when this is over and we've washed the blood off the walls we could do am autopsy and swap a few lessons learnt

Regards
Badpenny

Yup you're all doing a great job. Sorry about the late entries - I have a feeling you are going to get lots more!

Do you have a professional auctioneer running the show?

Kudos to Badpenny and all the "little people" helping him stage this auction. I am very jealous of all who have the opportunity to attend this event. But for one rather large pond (the Atlantic,) I would be there too.
For those not attending, I would ask, "Why not?" This is what we coin-op collectors live for; an opportunity to add to our collections while socializing with those who share our passion. What a joyful opportunity. Make the effort to support a truly egalitarian celebration of the hobby we all enjoy!

Well actually John, I'd got you down on the day for volunteer porter.......

Hi John,

Feeble excuse blaming the Atlantic when we've got the British roads to contend with!!!!!.

The full Coventry auction catalogue listing (excluding any late entries) is now here.

Don't Panic!

The catalogues are in the post. For all those who have not yet ordered one, don't forget that although pennymachines has kindly posted the list of lots on this site, you still need a catalogue to get in on the day. They can be ordered in the 'Market'. Don't delay!

See you in Coventry

Jerry
