Hi all,
Beginning, hopefully, tonight and continuing for some time to come, I will be listing on ebay the collection of a long time collector. He has, along with so many of us, found himself at a very difficult time in his life.

Because of the drastic change in his circumstances, he has asked me if I would help him sell part of his HK, FW & Binder collections.

I received the boxes today and will begin to photograph and list his treasures tonight or tomorrow. Everything will be listed under my ebay identity of catiel and most will have what he feels he would like to get as a buy it now along with a best offer link.

Questions will be answered as quickly as as possible and each archive piece will have a COA signed by me stating that ir is indeed one of the pieces that I auctioned off during the MPS Archive auctions.

Speaking of posting, I've run into some issues regarding my photo program and my ability to post photographs with my auctions. Sorry it's taken me so long to resolve the problems, but I do hope to have everything back to usable before this weekend is over.

I will make arrangements to ship overnight if anyone is looking for Christmas or Channuka or Quanza presents among the auctions pieces. I've been in close contact with the owner of the archive pieces and have his permission to list most of them with a low opening bid and/or Best Offer, so that should make up for the late start if you are looking for gifts.

Those of you who are familiar with the Archive Auctions know that the prototypes do not come with boxes but that they are all numbered and none of them are numbered higher than 6 of 6. Some of these pieces were never released into production. The pieces from Martin's private collection will be marked as such.

Well now that you have my interest up, lets see them.  I thought that i'd missed them on ebay but was wondering how that could happen.  Is this a Christmas joke like April fools day ? oxoxoxoxo.... "T"

At long last some of the auctions are up.  In fact, one went with 'buy it now' less than 5 minutes after I posted it!  (So perhaps it's a good idea to keep catiel plugged into your favourite sellers so that you get notified as soon as I post anything if you want to keep ahead of the game.) These auctions all have a Best Offer option.
