Ann. 2018 Annual BRS Auction, June 24th, Framingham Elks 450 Union St

[ileas]

It works like a reg auction if you've ever been we have pics on the screen and you can see the coral but chances are it will be stressed /closed up and then the bidding begins it's my favorite part of year

Oh ok, I've never been to an auction. It makes sense considering i'll probably be the youngest attendee there

You're older than I was when I joined and went to my first auction, and based on some of the donations, this is looking to be a good one to make your first.

Text me. I have a frag rack you can use depending on how many you need housed, or if there is no room in your tank.

Thanks sorry my post got messed up with the pic. Anyways I could really use someone who could home some of the corals until the event I only have a 30 and 5 gallon and 1 rack so can only fit so much. It should keep ok in the cooler there’s a lot of water but anyone with room it would be really helpful I could drop off to you tomorrow if possible. Anyways pumped for Sunday!

Hi Dilligaf,

To be honest, I don’t know the template or how to organize the auction database like previous boards. I am going to get it on an excel sheet today when my son takes his nap and share it via google link sonoeople can browse my progress as I get things entered.

Sorry we had a large change over of bod from last year and everyone who ran the auction program is out now [emoji22]

Click the slide show link for the current photos of donated items.

FYI Blank slides = No picture at the moment. Some I need to get off the forum, others I have not received photos yet.

enjoy the Eye Candy!

 

[CAPSLOCK]

I'm donating a variety of snail packs (my reef cleaners order arrived in time!) and a Christmas tree macro algae. No photos of snails - we all know what snails look like...

 

[jamesdong009]

WooHoo! Auction Day. Hope to see lots of faces this afternoon

 

[JeanR]

What time will the actually bidding start? And if your interested in bidding on corals when do you think you'll get to those?

 

[ileas]

You can come in later as well right? I won’t be able to make it right at 12 more like 130-2

Hi everyone,

Sorry we didn’t get to respond to your questions. The Board and volunteers were setting up the auction since the early morning.

We hope you made the drive and got what you wanted!

I wanted to give a shout out to Volunteers @CAPSLOCK and @Phinfan for helping out organize, set up, and tear down, as well as @Bendint ‘s little girl helping us out as well!

We had a successful auction/fundraiser for the club and hope everyone got a deal on something.

I only got yelled at a little for my spending by my wife, but that would have happened whether I spend $40 or $400 so not too worried [emoji23].

I hope everyone had a great time and I will see you all in September for Fragtastic show! (Date to be announced)

Tim
