It wil be one of the key cards to my RC collection and a nice investment indeed.
Ian(our prewar board member) bumped the price a few times later on and had a good shot. I consider myself lucky. So today i bought lottery tickets (Mega Million and PowerBall) one for 110 mill and the other for 200 mill.
I feel bad now Chris, because I probably cost you several hundred dollars! As said on the other pre war board, I was so so so close to punching one more bid. Had the total with BP calc'd out to $10 less, I may have, but it was right at that next round number ($3K) and I held back.

I guess these are my consolation prizes this month--

... and absolute proof how big a dork I am (had a bunch of extra bid bucks due to 4x Bucks offers and could not resist this relic of my childhood)
