I think I got 4, pulled out of the bidding on two others and I think there are a couple more still undecided.

In the light of Danz's post, you should probably make sure you actually bid on all of those. 

 

Now....whose 1919KN penny am I being asked to pay £65 for? I don't mind paying, but I will expect the coin.

[Danz 9]

All sorted. Phew.

I'm half tempted to pay for the 1919KN, working on the same principle.

You know it makes sense.

[Nordle11 564]

Haha you lot are terrible.

Well, if it got posted to me before the real bidder complained, would I be obliged to return it? 

"Sorry, I can't remember what I did with it..." 

Although someone's probably pleased with that win so I couldn't in all conscience do it. I'd be cross if it was me.

[Nordle11 564]

Obliged? No. A cruel and heartless person?

Maybe.

I'm sure all these errors will get ironed out.

I've told Neil I'll have it for that if the winner changes his or her mind.

To put the boot on the other foot, so to speak, how would you get on with "I bought a penny and you've given it to someone else."?

It's a good job we're all 100% honest. Honest.

Dropped out of lot 54 and paid for lots 50 and 86. Lee says they hope to get the lots out next Tuesday 31st May. All now over bar the shouting.

[Nonmortuus 848]

Well I won two lots so that's a couple of nice additions. 

[scott 129]

I won 187... thought there was one

 

[mrbadexample 985]

Curiouser and curiouser. Neil thinks I placed a bid for the 1919KN at £66, and emailed me the information from his server or whatever it is. There were some problems on the site on 17th when bids weren't being recognised, so it might have happened then but every bid I initially placed was for the low estimate, just to give myself the opportunity to rebid. £66 is not an amount I would have bid.

Strange, but I need an upgrade so have taken it.

Stop drinking so much in the evenings Jon

Some nice coins there, Ian. Especially the 161, which is superb - indeed excellent hair detail on both the World War 1 dates, from a time when hair detail was often lacking, due to worn dies in operation, for economy.
