I don't think I could outbid some of these people on these though.. well maybe on the green star polyps

Actually you totally missed out. The prices for most of the stuff was pretty low and oddly enough the GSP went for more then you'd want to know. All in all a good auction. Just take a guess at who bought the banana yuma!

We were happy to have you there andy! Since you outbid my husband on the banana Yuma, when that beauty multiplies, please keep me in mind for a sale or trade! :rollface: I got the Rainbow Yuma and the Sour Apple Zoos! :thumbsup:
