If its an
auction, you've no business mentioning it in this newsgroup, is that subtle
enough.

To clear up my intentions and past rulings on this situation:  This is an offer
to sell to the person making the highest offer within a fixed period of time.
No updates will be posted or mailed to those making offers and no higher offers
will be solicited.  This has been called a sealed-bid auction by some in the
past, but Todd has ruled it to be a straight sale and therefore appropriate for
buy-sell-trade (I think there's reasonable room for disagreement on this one,
but just to point out I'm acting within historical precedent).  For the
historical precedent...Rufus posted:

...whereupon Larry complained:

http://www.lugnet.com/market/buy-sell-trade/?n=2395

...and Todd finally ruled:

I hope this clears up any confusion about my intentions for this sale or the
proper posting forum!

Alan

Hi Alan, If this is a true sale, it's sold, just tell me where to send the money. If its an auction, you've no business mentioning it in this newsgroup, is that subtle enough. Mark H (...) (25 years ago, 5-Nov-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
