Yup. It would take years and lots of money to do a 32 run from scratch. Anyone born in 1932 would be turning 86 this year, so probably not many looking to start a birth year run. My mother was born in 1933, but she would get angry at me if I got it for her. Like the owner, she is also trying to downsize. My prediction is that it will close around 6K.

Ayecarumba Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 89 Posts: 1744 | Good hunting Wizard! If you max bid is high enough, do your sniper bids automatically go up until the reserve is met? |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | 1 hour to go, my guess is $4100. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | I was off by $212. I was watching that time and as soon as the auction was over, it disappeared from the page. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Wizard Administrator Member since: Oct 23, 2012 Threads: 239 Posts: 6095 | The good news is I was the high bidder at $3,888.00. My maximum was $4,444. The bad news is the reserve was not met. I can't stand sellers who put unreasonable reserves on their crap. No way he is going to easily get much more than what it closed for. Ebay is supposed to be a damn auction site!

Wizard Administrator Member since: Oct 23, 2012 Threads: 239 Posts: 6095 | That same 1932 run is back up for auction, this time with no reserve. I knew he wouldn't find a better price off of Ebay. Let's see what happens this time. He said he got a $5,000 offer, but I'm skeptical it goes for much more than last time. He should have taken it, given that it closed for $3,888, thanks to me.
