Thanks everyone for bidding.  Some have asked to know how it went.  In
fact, it worked quite well.  I received over 50 emails.  Some items
went (as expected) to the only bidder at $5 or something, others
slowly bid up to double digit numbers.

It also turned out to be fun and a little bit more work than I
expected, since I had to keep the web site updated with current bid
prices and notify people whose bids had been exceeded so they could,
if they chose, bid more.

Several people wanted to check out the piano, so I'm still accepting
bids on that until everything settles out.

Feel free to check out the site (URL above).  Anything other than the
piano that doesn't have bids is available for free to the first
comer.  (Click the photo to see the detail pages with bids, etc.)

I should be available today (Sat) until noon and all day Sunday.  Give
me a call before coming over (even if only 2 minutes before) just to
make sure I'm here.
