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!
