I actually did offer that to those who already bid on them. I didn't
feel that naming the exact amount of the cash offer would be fair to
the person who made it, so I simply stated that the current offer was
well over $50 per lot. Even though several other people had proxy bids
around $50, nobody that I heard back from had a high enough cash
offer. Some others said that anything over $50 per lot was crazy, but
I did get other offers, just not as high as the original one.
