Remember the copy Ferrell's El Dorado Narrow Gauge that sold for an impressive $35 last week?The latest copy of the book went for $70.99 this evening. That's about $10 less than the $80 average.
Keith had told me at lunch today that we should secure a copy of the book for the railway's library.
My concern was that the bidder, who appears to live in Diamond Springs, had placed several large bids after he had placed himself on top Friday evening . My fear was that this gentleman (I assuming he's a man) had placed a very high proxy bid into the eBay auction system.
I was right. Had Keith or bid today, we certainly won the book at a hefty price -- over $80, I suspect.
Since the book surfaces once or twice each month, we'll wait to get a copy for the railway.
