    #72 and #73 should be together.
    It is a lemon server and fork.
    Maybe too late to correct.

    That's an awesome idea. Honestly, I think the thing is priced way too high but for now we are stuck with it. I am hoping I can talk the owner down because I know his partner does not want it in the new house. LOL.

    LOL. They actually came packaged together. I seperated them after posting them together on here. LOL.

    Oh well they are seperate now. I think they are priced low enough that it doesn't really matter. I should probably change the description from wine coaster though. Although technically I suppose you could still use it you as a wine coaster. LOL. That is too funny. I will mention this when we get to it in the live auction. Thanks.

    Thanks. I feel the same way about that little car. The owner is super nice. He cracked me up cause when he dropped it off we did the paperwork. He looked at me winked and said I'll leave the milage blank maybe you want to take it for a spin. I laughed and said I better not. LOL. I pulled it in the gallery very very carefully. LOL.

    I drive a stick myself so I have no trouble driving it. I had a lady come look at it the other day and I said let me open the bay door and we can start it for you.

    I asked her if she would like to start it (cause I was in used car saleman mode at this point) and she said sure. I said ok here ya go. Now ofcouse I am standing right there with her as she inserts the key and turns it over. She looked at me eith sad eyes and said it won't start.

    I was like mam, you have you have to push the clutch in. Ofcourse it started right up. All I could think was lady this is not the car to learn on. LOL.

    I was telling my biz partner this and he looks at me and says. I wouldn't have known that either. ...:facepalm:

    Edit- even better than that is this. I went to early service at church on Sunday. There are very few people in rite 1 service. As we are waiting before service my priest leans over to me and says... "you still got that convertible" I had to laugh. I said yes it has 3 bids right now. He scratched his chin and said I sure have been I thinking about it. LOL!

    Soon there will be less than few on the planet who can drive a stick. Few can now actually. I could probably leave my truck open with the keys in it and it will still be out front.
    Only one other person has ever driven my truck...since 1975. She just had the knack and paid attention.
    I have the pattern backwards and tight so if you don't know how to shift, and even if you do, you'll jam it in gear. If you can get into any of them. ;)

    p.s. I'd rather have my old '69 Chevy step-side, which has never let me down, than any Bavarian Monkey Wart any day. :)

    Just had time to finish looking at everything.
    Very Nice.
    Things will get easier once you start rolling. But for a first time, I think you did spectacular.

    I like the old layout on the catalog page, but the new layout for the individual items.

    If you don't mind my making a couple of description corrections.
    #332 is a Wexford butter dish top. It is not cut glass. #333 is also not cut glass - 1960s pressed glass, but I don't remember the pattern.

    I am not a BMW fan myself. Although, I have to say I would not snub my nose if someone wanted to buy me this one. ;-) Before the 2nd Great Depression as I like to say... I myself owned a fine piece of German engineering. I will never forget her. Her name was Bettie. She was a Mercedes SLK350 Convertible. Black. Fully Loaded. It was a hardtop convertible and it was such a fun little car and quick as lighting. I lost it along with our house and everything else in 2008. Not a time I like to think about but it was fun while it lasted.

    My last 3 cars have been Saabs. I have loved everyone of them. After my first Saab which was a beat up little 90's Model 9-3 I fell in love. I am so upset about what GM did to Saab it isn't even funny. My second Saab was a much nicer 2010 9-3 Aero which I had to sell when I got laid off from my last real job. I imediately replaced it with my current Saab. Which is a 2002 Saab 9-3 Hatchback. Here's the kicker, my newest Saab only has 63,000 Miles on it and the inside looks brand spanking new. I bought it from an architect. LOL!

    He never went anywhere in it and was always traveling so the car almost never got used. It is my baby. I love my little Saab so much. I wouldn't even trade it for that Mercedes back. It may be ugly but that is part of what I like about Saab you can spot them from a mile away. My dream car would be a restored Saab Sonnet Like the one below except maybe in white with a black racing stripe.

    Now my husband is a Chevy man. Always has been always will be. Right now he drives a GMC but lets face it they are the same thing. LOL! If I ever get wealthy I will most likely have me a little Saab collection. I just love them so much. When I was a kid I thought they were ugly but I guess it is an acquired taste cause now I think they are the coolest looking things. LOL! I do hope they manage to make some kind of come back. I know they have been toying with or launching some type of Electric car in Sweden. If I have the money and they become available here I will buy me one.

    Thank you so much. I have changed them. To be honest I got really lazy around lot 300. I don't have any control over the layout on the auction side. That is all coming from hibid. I am not sure how I feel about it it. I like it when I am on my phone cause it is much more mobile friendly but not sure how I feel about the styling in general yet.
