You're going to need bodyguards for the F&F sale with all the money you're going in with and all the goods you're going out with, Harold!

Thanks for posting on this on the phorum OldSchoolFool, we definitely appreciate this kind of straight from the horse's mouth communication.

Uk and Europe boys , we could do a single shipment and save the costs.

If there is a Roadster there and the pricing is good, I want it.

The team just told me they found a LE Octane, mint, pristine, new, etc.

Add this to the RT66 and Roadsters and you see there's a few PRIMO amps going up at the F&F.

We have a problem and we need your help here. What should we charge?

The best idea so far is to put them up on Ebay, (just RT66 and OCTANE) end the auction a few days before the sale, and demand payment at the F&F. That gives anyone not in PDX land the time to wire monies, and the price is automatically correct.

For a small surcharge we can even ship UPS worldwide with full insurance and tracking if needed.

What do you guys think about that?

I need to get pictures of the RT66 up- there are a few blemishes to the silk. It's new, but has been stored and moved about too many times to be perfect anymore. (I know- it should be in a glass case with 100% nitrogen atmosphere and armed guards 24-7, but it's not...)

I am not going to be able to get there, but would be very interested if someone is going that I could work out an arrangement of money for product or something.

Post by **Bfowler** » Wed Oct 01, 2008 8:59 am

how do they just FIND an octane LE!

was it under someones desk!

thats badd ass though

i hate to say it, but your idea is probably the best way to get full value for it.

or...

you could hold a live auction AT the sale!

i thought last time the word was pg didn't have any old school stuff left what so ever!!

Post by **Rold Gold** » Wed Oct 01, 2008 9:14 am

There has been a Roadster (#3 IIRC) on the bay forever for $800 that never sold to my knowlege. How about a good number on the sale of 3 units...?

Monies require 3-5 days to transfer from PP to bank and "shill-bidding" is another problem....... Would it be a possability to have $$$ send direct to PG and I can w/c them at the sale?

heard the very same thing from Phil before he left?? curious to understand that.. but nonetheless.. I'm interested in Octane LE, Roadster, & Rte66... SUCKS BEING 3200Miles away though... do a live auction or something, have a wireless computer there to accept bids from people far away or somethign, i dunno.. but heck there are more PG heads than just what might be within a drives distance from P-Town... i.e. worldwide as we all know.. it just is so disapointing that we(I) are so far away... my.02

BC's official slogan is "The Best Place on Earth". What's Oregon's?

Post by **Rold Gold** » Wed Oct 01, 2008 12:24 pm

OSF- Correct me if I'm wrong but wern't the Roadster's going for $600 at the last F&F???????

I remember there was 1 stiing on a table on the east wall in it's case.......plus my buddy took a picture of it with his phone and it shows that price...

Can you confirm this.......?

Im in the Bay, but it will be about 2AM when I'd be in Chico land (if thats not a huge detour from my route up the coast~which I am pretty certain it is) Im leaving here at Midnight, to get there at 9AM sharp.
