    Nothing from the auction house yet.... there was a lot of interest in this one and some exceptionally rare stuff crossing the block. It will likely be tomorrow before I know anything.

    Another 45 lots to go before they get to my stuff. Looks like a LOT of wealth in that room tonight. The Tiffany Lamps are really slowing things down.

    And the results are in... I won only the Krell Evo 525a SACD player. I lost out on the preamp by 250.00, and all of the Watt Puppies. They all sold for close to retail. It was my plan to offer up the Watt Puppy Mk5's as Karma and sell the rest.

    I will go pick up the Krell on Thursday and report back. A Karma is in order, but won't be as grand as I had hoped.

    Thanks guys!

    I know.... a pair of Watt Puppies would have been an epic Karma. I wasn't too far off on the other stuff, but not even close on them. I think dealers were jumping in on them.

    There is a saying...

    "Sometimes the best luck is no luck at all".

    Guess that makes me pretty lucky then.... B)

    Getting in there and going for it though was the right thing to do. You never know what can happen...unless you don't play at all!
