Peltier Book -- Forum Fundraiser

[Steph]

For auction we have Peltier Glass Toy Marbles: An American Legend, by Sami Arim, Mike Johnson and Gino Biffany.   Proceeds will go to forum maintenance. 

This is my copy.  It's in good, almost new condition.  Let's call it NM+.   The spine is bumped and a couple of pages open more easily than the rest.  

Winner will pay actual shipping, based on two pounds priority mail in the U.S. from zip code 54241.   I will also mail internationally but may need advice as to which is the best way to send.  Edit: I will pay the shipping.

You can pay for your win through the forum donation tool and I will ship as soon as Jason says the donation went through.  

Auction ends Sunday, February 9, at noon Central Standard Time. 

Happy bidding.

On eBay, one sold for $362 in  December and another for 250 in January.   That's why I figured I'd pull my copy out and see what it might be able to do for the forum.

Now someone's trying to sell one on the Bay for $899.  

[Steph]

I just finished my taxes.  Getting a nice refund, feeling flush.

I will pay the shipping.     Even international.  

[Tommy]

I will Bump up to $175

Ok it is a great book--I have had two of them that I traded away because I never used them (one was purchased for a trade)--a big mistake for sure on my part.

$195--it is getting close unless I get sniped--🙃.  I have it coming though. I will not snipe this aucton--nuff said--all in fun for me.

Thanks Steph, I will pay pronto.

I had a bit of trouble paying @bumblebee . I could not enter any exact amounts.

I just did two $100 payments--it is worth it for sure.

Marble--On!!

[bumblebee]

Wow thank you Steph and Art! 🤩

Thanks to this and some other recent donations, I now have about $360 in unapplied hosting funds balance, so this will take care of those costs for quite a while.

[akroorka]

Done deal, the book is mint.

Thanks Steph!

Marble--On!!

[Fire1981]
