There are only 1000 made and each one is numbered

Before anyone asks when the auction ends, it is penciled in my diary, I will not publish time or day. This will ensure that no tight ass will jump in 10 seconds before the end and claim the winning bid.
Bid quick and bid strong !!!

Lams, Tax cheating as you are receiving something in exchange for your bid/money it is not a gift/donation but an exchnage for something tangible.
Fossil ·
Good on you Roy for your intiative on this one

Fossil, sorry I didn't understand what you meant.
All I want is a receipt showing that the money's gone to the foundation, as I have saved this money up for years now and just want to make sure. Not that I don't trust Roy or anything!
nothing to do with taxes :thumb

No its a good point, I will make sure that a receipt is given from the foundation for all of our piece of mind's.
If anyone wants a receipt for tax then I can sort that out no problem.
No offence taken either.
By the way you fellas are legends, bloody legends.
Come on the rest of you fellow members dip your hands in yer pockets dont be such tight arses.

Lams, no offence meant just making chat but just sometimes I seen people think auctions like these get them a tax claim - comes from being a bean counter in a previous life.
Hope you win it
winerot ·
sorry but i dont
Lams ·
thanks fossil, i understand where you're coming from. Too many people trying to cheat the system!
my top bid is $400. dont have any more!
penguin ·
Bump,
it reached my limit with winerots split personality pun.....
winerot ·
$425
Lams ·
ok winerot you win well done 😀
you guys know where I can hand over this money for the foundation?
vern74 ·
When is Roy finishing the Auction ?
Fossil ·
ah that's a secret that only Roy knows and as mentioned is pencilled in his diary
Fossil ·
Lams - sorry you hit your limit
Lams ·
thanks fossil
it only means more money for the research 😀
Fossil ·
Lams, based on your posts here I feel you should win the auction AND based on your giving the money over anyway you are certainly a WINNER and should be applauded for your generosity.
Hope to meet you some day - maybe at Klub Fest on 15 May @ Capalaba:beer I raise my glass to you

thanks for the kind words fossil. doesn't matter that I didn't win the model, winerot probably knows how much this model is really worth and probably wants it very badly compared to me. I have no idea how rare this item is. To me it's just another splitty model!
I hope all of you would consider giving to this organisation, as they are doing some awesome work for those unfortunate ones with leukaemia. Not only do they fund researches, they also go to the patients and try to make their dreams come true. look at the smile on my friend's face when they brought him some presents
I hope one day they will find a cure for this nasty disease!
15 May sounds so far away but I will be there!

You guys are fantastic !
I will be sure to keep you all posted on how the fund raising is going.
Keep an eye out for Vern and I on the highway
penguin ·
Lams, simply because you are the competitor, I'll give you $25 to make it to $500... .......
Sorry winerot 🙁 but can I say that if you were at $475 I'd give it to you as well???
But I can say that I can't give Lams more than that after paying for my type three's repairs this morning.
