Grain & Equipment For Sale

[Ciderhead]

Not big into Dutch auctions and
if it's all done tomorrow  out

[LordEoin]

The list is still knida redundant because the sale doesn't start til tomorrow.
Kinda unfair to anyone that'll be busy for the day with competition stuff.
But i'm sure it'll be fun to watch the vultures at play, bring the auctioning and brown envelopes. I imagine parrot's PMs haven't stopped pinging since yesterday.

I f PMs are being accepted(and i am not saying they are) then what's the point of bidding on here? Parrot has already stated that people that have tendered a bid on this post already will be considered to have made the initial offer once the auction opens proper.

Morning All

Some of you guys may have noticed that I haven't replied to any posted offers yet. This is because in the PDF catalogue, in the introduction, I said the sale would start on Saturday morning. This was to ensure that members who only get to log on at the weekend, etc., get a fair chance at making an offer on some of the items offered.

In all cases the best offer will be accepted, after all I am trying to recover as much as I can of the money I've invested in equipment. I'll probably not get to sell more than 50% of the equipment offered, realising, possibly, 25-30% of what I've invested. So please, make your best offer and you'll get a great bargain.

I'm noting the offer made and after the published start time I'll respond to offers made. just trying to be fair to all, including myself

Thought it might be worth re-posting the above. The sale date/time stands to facilitate those travelling, in competition, etc..

Want to be fair to everyone - particularly me

€30 Immersion wort chiller
€40 Stir plate etc

This is getting slightly messy here.

I haven't accepted any offers simply because I had put a start time on the sale because I reckoned it would facilitate people who only log on at the weekend but all offers are valid.

@CH: I understand mate, no problem if you want to withdraw your offer. I'm sure you didn't mean I should be bound to accept the first offer no matter what.

Any PMs I've received have been from well wishers here and on other forums in the UK. I wouldn't be pulling a stroke like accepting offers made by PM.

Guys, I have to get the best price I can for my equipment and even then, I know I'm unlikely to realise half of it's value. I make no apologies for seeking out the best offer I can get, especially for full lots.

Don't want to offend anyone but I'm just trying to get through this and dispose of my excellent equipment and being made to feel quite awkward about it now.

It's your stuff and you obviously worked hard to put it all together. Thanks for giving our club first chance to buy but if it's not working out put it on adverts or similar.

CARA here using CHs phone. Parrot no one's getting arsey man, I think the open auction system till Friday is a great idea. It's the fairest option on the forum for such a large and quality batch of brewing equipment.

Hi Parrot,
Is the adjustable roller a 2-roller or 3-roller one?
Thanks.

  Bumping up my query

[Parrot]

When is this sale starting again anyway ? Parrot i am sorry to see a fellow home brewer sell off his equipment,and if i appeared to be grabbing like a mad thing i apologise, however as a beginner my list of equipment is limited due to logisitics and funding(i have have had morning cuppa so big words). That said when i see an opportunity to get a few items i need all from the same source and at a decent price i will hop on that, that's just common sense IMHO  I would rather give the shillings to a fellow home brewer than to a BNM or online store if at all possible

Sorry El Heffe for this , i know you said only equipment questions but i felt i needed to say this as i think its what a lot of us here are feeling anyway
