Very sorry that Tiny s picture didnt get transfered but it has been now

Shame on you Gill

I think my beautiful bridge baby should get extra votes for having been so cuelly omitted.

Janey for spotting it.

I have to say I'm finding voting impossible - they're all brilliant.

Janeyk · « **Reply #78 on:** December 05, 2008, 11:50:33 AM »

I've just voted 2 and it won't let me add Tiny on now, can you add it for me please Gill?

Its hard to believe but the auction is on a countdown.........only 2 and a bit days to go..........my goodness get those fingers ready for sunday afternoon/evening and try not to crash Purrs pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #73 on:** December 04, 2008, 14:18:42 PM »

All items are best paid for together

sheryl · « **Reply #72 on:** December 04, 2008, 14:17:05 PM »

Mmmm Ive totally lost track on my bids

If we win more than 1 item can we just make 1 Paypal pmt or do we need to pay for each item individually?

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #71 on:** December 04, 2008, 12:55:31 PM »

Oh goody goody

tiga · « **Reply #70 on:** December 04, 2008, 12:53:32 PM »

Thanks. Will get my money out!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #69 on:** December 04, 2008, 12:51:55 PM »

The auction finishes at 1900 precisely on Sun 7 Dec by the Purrs clock and money can be sent in as soon as we post the instructions, which will take up to 3 hours to do on every thread.

Items must not be sent out until the money has been received. So this will be when cheques have cleared if payment is by cheque.

If you win an item it maybe as well to tell the auctioneer to send it after Christmas cos things get delayed at this time of year but I will leave you to decide what to to.

Happy bidding

tiga · « **Reply #68 on:** December 04, 2008, 12:45:57 PM »

When does the auction finish and when do we need to send in the money? I want to bid but I will be away over Christmas.

Thanks
Anne

a number of computers with an assistant at each..................how many ~~cats~~ assistants do you have

CarolM (Wendolene) · « **Reply #66 on:** November 30, 2008, 16:58:06 PM »

I seem to have a lot of bids on hotly contested items. I'm going to need a strategy for next Sunday

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #65 on:** November 29, 2008, 22:25:36 PM »

I've been so busy I've not had a chance to bid on anything yet so I must get going, I can be pretty sneaky too you know

so just when you think you have everyone sussed - watch out

maryas · « **Reply #64 on:** November 28, 2008, 22:43:23 PM »

I've saved you Julie - my mum loves tea

Mary

Pinkbear (Julie) · « **Reply #63 on:** November 28, 2008, 21:57:13 PM »

I have no idea what I bid on or how much either.

Don't worry, it's not a big deal as I've been saving my pennies to have fun.

But I have a nasty feeling I have lumbered myself with some dodgy looking tea flavoured sweeties Tan listed - no one else has bid on them since.

Jasmine · « **Reply #62 on:** November 28, 2008, 18:55:47 PM »

Thank you Christine - got a bit of a shock when I first saw the list though - thought they were all mine

I'll take a leaf out of Mary's book from now on methinks!

Could you PM me with my totals Christine please - I've totally lost track

Jasmine - I've listed out the bids as of 17.20 and have PMd them to you. By the time you read it, it will be out-of-date, but at least you'll be able to check the items you were top bidder on

maryas · « **Reply #60 on:** November 28, 2008, 15:29:34 PM »

Aw Carol, that's soooo cruel - lovely ornment

Has anyone got any nice cat ornaments to put in the auction? I've got loads and loads but always like to get something unusual ......

You mean like these cats on a sofa Mary? Sorry, not for sale.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #58 on:** November 28, 2008, 14:19:57 PM »

i dont think we did it last year , only after auction had finished.

we did it everynight the ist year cos hadnt worked out the best way to do the nightly stuff but now we have a good system tailored for purrs

maryas · « **Reply #57 on:** November 28, 2008, 13:24:24 PM »

I'm a smartie pants

I've wrote all mine down so I know what I'm doing when I get back from Prague on Wednesday night.

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #55 on:** November 28, 2008, 12:22:04 PM »

You did it last year - or someone did - and it was very helpful to remind me what I had bid on. But if there's no plan to do it again this year, then I'll trawl through tomorrow myself.

If anyone else is as profligate as I am with their bids

and would like to see the fruits of my labours, drop me a PM.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #54 on:** November 28, 2008, 11:24:06 AM »

no christine i have no plans for this and do not see that one is needed.

we do have a spread sheet with all info on it but thats just for end of auction use.

i dont want the auction to be cluttered up with loads of lists really. thanks anyway

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #53 on:** November 28, 2008, 11:20:51 AM »

Are you planning to do an interim list of who holds the top bid on each item? I don't mind helping with this tomorrow as obviously it's a bit of a faff, but you may have it covered already?

maryas · « **Reply #52 on:** November 27, 2008, 21:49:55 PM »

Has anyone got any nice cat ornaments to put in the auction? I've got loads and loads but always like to get something unusual and last year I got a great one off Pav. (after a right fight with Leigh, I might add!!)

Mary

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #51 on:** November 27, 2008, 17:57:47 PM »

Auction finishes at 1900 hours on Sunday 7 Dec and the last bids will be recorded by the Purrs site clock and 1900 means precisely by that clock...one second later and you have had it

Then the job is for me and helpers I hope, to post up how to pay your money and send stuff out to the winning bidders

Feline Costumier · « **Reply #50 on:** November 27, 2008, 17:54:10 PM »

Sorry, a bit brain drained (stupid change in VAT means I have had a lot of re-invoicing to do this week

) but what time exactly does the auction end? I think I need to work ouot some tactics

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #49 on:** November 27, 2008, 17:27:04 PM »

Please do not bump threads as this is down to Hannah and I and it confuses us at night cos we are tired and its crazy and we are suffering...........and you mess our bloomin system up

Once we have done the last nightly post a week on Saturday, then all gloves are off and hell accordingly breaks out

If you want a thread to get higher on the list, its easy................bid on it

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #48 on:** November 26, 2008, 23:00:48 PM »

No lol and it will only get worse

Well you may see tomorrow a way of hiding but only if they will let you .......which I doubt

Pinkbear (Julie) · « **Reply #47 on:** November 26, 2008, 21:03:01 PM »

Is there anywhere I can hide? It's a rugby scrum in there!

CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls · « **Reply #46 on:** November 24, 2008, 21:06:04 PM »

Ok's will be back soon got some snapping to do!

blackcat · « **Reply #45 on:** November 24, 2008, 20:49:21 PM »

You just need to link them to cats in some way CC - like, cool music for groovy cats ...

CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls · « **Reply #44 on:** November 24, 2008, 20:47:54 PM »

Are things that have nothing to do with cats allowed to be posted? I have some DVD's.

Oh and I want to know does anyone like Austin Powers cos I have 3 movies and will put them on as a 3 set if anyone does. I am asking cos I dont want to make an ass of myself if nobody wants them

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #43 on:** November 24, 2008, 18:49:48 PM »

4 weeks !!

It finishes a week on Sunday
