Ok, this is starting to get confusing. I am going to fix it now. I have spreadsheets setup and ready to get this auction finished.

First, each bidder will be assigned a numerical designation based on seniority and post placement in this thread. So, first up will be poster of post #2 so his designation will be 1. For organization purposes will be using letters as well. This is Ninos first auction so the designation for the first entrant will be NFA1. Going by seniority and post placement poster of post #5 will be NFA2. Moving from there will be poster of post #12 who will then be NFA3. I will leave it to you to follow the above example to isolate yourself and figure out your designation.

Now, I will show you an example of how the bids will be made. We will use the poster of post #224 whose designation will be NFA5. Now, NFA5 has made a recent bid but it was not within the guidelines of the new bid placement system (NBPS). So I will convert that bid into proper NBPS formatting.

NFA5 bids $45 for two 1/4 of 3, NFA5 bids $36 for three 1/2 9's, $69 for two 1/8 5's, $29 for four 1/16 3's. NFA5 then bids $237 for one, two boxes please. On the third box NFA5 bids $176. And the fourth box (if it's still up for sale) NFA5 bids $152. The empty box for one NFA5 bids $10, for two NFA5 bids $16 and the third NFA5 bids $9 on respective boxes 54, 65, 78.

Now, this is proper NBPS formatting so our bidding will be organized and can be inserted into the offical bidding spreadsheet system (OBSS). Time is running out so figure out your designation number and place your bid as soon as possible.

I think we arre finally organized and ready to bid....

I bid one dollar higher than bigpoppapuff on all lots and boxes. Nino... Automatically bid me one dollar higher than he bids each time he bids. I don't feel I should have to stay awake night and day watching this thing.

The fourth box is no longer for sale. Just letting you know. I repeat THERE IS NO 4RTH BOX.
Also, i can't get any more cigars, I don't have a supplier or anything like that, i bought the cigars myself from a tabacco shop in one of the bigger hotels (the national specifically) in Havana.

PLEASE use the system i suggested in my previous post, it works out a lot easier for me. I am only going to split up one box, E2, the other is being sold whole.

If you have any problems please let me know, and if you want to use another system (specifically the shagaroo one) please confirm with me before you start doing so. I'll be honest, the shagaroo system is confusing me a little and i'd rather we used the one i suggested.

Shagaroo, if you want to use another system PLEASE contact me before you make it up so i can tell you what suits me best, as otherwise there's not much point in me taking part in this if everyone keeps on ignoring what i write.

Geez - after all the bickering that has gone on in this thread - we finally get a system together that makes sense. Shagaroo is a very wise person.

I don't understand why you're confused - it actually looks very simple to me. Admittedly, it's somewhat like Australian Rules football, but once you understand it, it makes perfect sense. Ninos - I know you are concerned about getting the most buck for the bang, but I really think you should turn this whole thing over to Shag to complete. I'm sure you'll be more than satisfied when it's all over....

Ok, put me at NFA1a on the spreadsheet. Here's my bids: $52US ea. on 1/3 on 9 (Nino's E1, right?) and 1/4 on a 6 (E3) Then I'll go big w/ $235US on 1/3 on box #4. I'll go $95US ea. on those larger bundles from 9 and I don't want the box but I'll give you $15US for it so I can give it to ggiese. Finally, we get this thing going!!

Nino, just go with it man, pay close attention and you'll get it. Smart move on getting the money first. And don't let these guys lowball you either. I'm thinking that what ever you have at the deadline is the winning bids, right?
