Please don't feel you were the target of any sort of criticism. I don't think
anyone who participated in this thread holds anything against you for
auctioning off the trees. If anything, it was good that you made some
available to others. And $25 was a fair price at which to start the auction,
considering the relative rarity of the trees. We certainly cannot fault you
for having had the foresight to stock up on an element that appealed to you!
My sole purpose of posting was to give Richard a bad time (all in fun, of
course!) about taking such a chance (I love those cypress trees too, but I
don't think they're worth THAT much!), but evidently he knew exactly what he
was doing. If I embarrassed or offended you or anyone else, I apologize.
