[Rhodes22-list] Brad: e-bay boat hull #

[brad haslett]

Rob,

The reserve is over $6100 and yes, that is my stop
limit.  Starting the bidding at low number is typical
e-bay psychology.  MJM is right on this, don't bid
until the final two minutes.  Why did I proxy bid the
boat so high?  My oldest son said it best: "alcohol
and e-bay don't mix!"
