No bids yet on that package.

Looks like everyone is waiting for someone else to make the first move.

Cheers

I'm so tempted to put a bid in, but the observatory doesn't look big enough to sleep in when Kee finds out.

That's assuming that I'm actually still alive.

Cheers

PS. It's up to $4200 now

Someone retracted a bid...stating odd reasons, considering the time he bid and the time he retracted.

It is indeed odd.
