Re: New Smurfy Contest

I think bidding should close when it hase only two days left . . . Otherwise someone will smartly wait until the last minute and place a bid, stealing my prize, uh . . . I mean OUR prize out from under us!

According to the rules, isn't Brad the winner?

Re: New Smurfy Contest

Congratulations Brad! I just e-mailed you, so get back to me with your address and we'll start this Smurf on his journey. He is very excited - Australia, wow! The rest of my collection will miss him, they are planning his Bon Voyage party right now!

And thanks for the sharp eyes James (I was just wondering if you had found your way here...) and Jen...

If Gary would be so kind as to run another contest, I'll whip up another prize and we'll do this again! Good Luck to everyone in round 2, and thanks for playing in round 1!

Re: New Smurfy Contest

pfffff
i'm sorry but i was closer ^_^
ending price written in ebay.fr is
EUR 30.52
(Approximately US $38.53)
i said $40
that's 1.47 more
brad sayd 29 euros, that's 1.52 euros less

according to current rate
1 USD=0.792644 EUR
so, i was $1.47 to the good price, that's to say 1.165 euros

who is closer now ? ah ah ah

Re: New Smurfy Contest

Ooooo! What drama! Who will take the prize now?

Well, first I have to find it - yup, I don't know where the heck I put it, and I have a bad feeling it made it's way into some rubbed Smurfs I was returning to a seller :(

But don't worry, I'll find two prizes for you guys - is that agreeable to you both? I'll be able to Smurf up something, if not that guy...sorry I'm such a bonehead sometimes :)

Re: New Smurfy Contest

Yeah Chrissy I originally had said and thought Mattt was the winner, but Jim and Jen both said no, so I changed it. Fortunately Pete has such a big heart he is giving both a prize!!! In the current contest the rules state USD guesses only so as to avoid future confusion! With the drastic change in moey rates from day to day it is better this way, today Mattt is closer, tomorrow Brad could be way over the final bid........ you never know.
