Tim,

Congratulations on the $193 selling price. Not too bad at all.

A little over half what one went for two months ago. Sigh...

Bad timing is all. The run up to Christmas is a tie when most people are spending their money elsewhere.

That is a respectable price for an open auction.

If you want anything higher, I think you really need to place it as a BUY-IT-NOW and probably end up sitting on it for months waiting for that someone who needs it now.

Gingerbread castles with mint upper works, candy cane spires, & toffee ramparts where edible unicorns prance. But there lurking deep in the dungeons behind the chocolate fountain.. the cavity creeps.

Does anyone really need any of this stuff?

Define "need".

Everyone here "needs" a copy of CZUW but some have a $50 need and others a $350 need.

Perhaps I should put it in a sentence. Something along the lines of, "Some people need to remember to take their daily prescribed medication".
