#### Senor Fun Pickle for sale - CLOSED

First of all I'd like to apologise to Mermaid. I responded to her thread offering 1 million currants for a Senor Fun Pickle. And then mails started coming in with lots of offers. So I guess I didn't really think this through. Again, I apologise.
I've been thinking about a fair way to sell Senor Fun Pickle and the only thing I can come up with, which I hope is fair to everybody who wants the chance to buy one, to Mermaid and to myself, is the following:
Please mail me your offer. Don't post here on the thread as I'd like to avoid an 'auction'. My preference would be to just receive an offer in currants as I have almost everything else. I will post the highest offer here on this thread in 24 hours (let's do this quick and dirty before I change my mind). If the highest offer is not made by Mermaid, I am going to give Mermaid the chance to match the highest offer. If she can match, she will get Senor Fun Pickle. If she can't match, the highest bidder will get the Pickle. If I receive two equal offers, it's first come first served. In any event, the Pickle will change hands in 24 hrs.
In the spirit of fairness, I think I should also tell you that the highest offer I have received so far is 1.5 million currants. That will be the last offer I disclose. I know this system isn't ideal but I hope it gives everyone a chance without going into an 'auction' that could potentially be drawn out over a long period of time.
Take care & hugs!

- I think it does kind of suck for mermaid that she had the forethought to advertise for a pickle, and then other folk snuck in under radar to you without taking the time to post an ad themselves : ( I too understand how would you like more currants though...but it's still sad for Mermaid... :( :( :( Nothing worse than people sniping on other's advertisements.

- It was a close call and there were many bidders but the highest bid is 2.7 million.
  I have sent a frogmail to the highest bidder. Those of you who made a bid but were unsuccessful: thank you so much for your bids and I hope you get your Funpickles soooon! There are too many of you to send personal frogmails but (((hugs))) for all of you.
  As promised Mermaid will get a chance to match the highest bid. I have not heard from Mermaid yet but am trying to contact her now. If any of her friends should happen to read this, please poke gently to alert her to this thread. TY and I will keep you updated.
