Todd,
If you don't need the sets until after October 31 for AucZILLA IX, I am
betting the orange Halloween buckets will be 50% off at 8:00 am November
1st. Living in the Twin Cities (corporate headquarters of Dayton Hudson
Co) I am within realistic driving distance of no less than 29 Target
stores! Let me know and maybe I can do a whirlwind buying spree first
thing Sunday morning. Has anyone done the math on the shipping weight of
the contents only of 20 buckets?

No Target stores anywhere near Boston...  :-(

Looking to buy several copies (20+ if possible) of the special Target orange
halloween bucket and have them shipped to Boston via UPS Ground.

Just want to buy the pieces, not the buckets (you keep those).

All-righty, I got permission from Scott Smallbeck to use his kind offer as the
starting point for a quick reverse-auction.  (A reverse auction is one in which
you want to buy something rather than sell something, and the lowest bidder
wins.)

Scott Smallbeck's bid:

   Sale of 20 orange Halloween buckets, including shipping and local sales tax,
   for US$256.00.

Feel free to post counter-bids right here as follow-ups if you like...that will
shorten the overall turnaround time.

The winning bid will be the one which commits 20 or more buckets at the lowest
per-bucket price, including shipping and local sales tax.  (Again, you keep the
buckets.)

I have not seen an update to your 'reverse' auction. Are you still looking to get the pieces, did you already get them? I was hoping to see the auction go through a complete transaction just to see if it might be something that would catch on. For (...) (26 years ago, 20-Oct-98, to lugnet.market.auction)
