They would then exchange *that* for the actual piece - which you would have had the opportunity to authenticate by adding the name in the meantime. Don't know if that is possible, but wanted to mention it just in case.Cami Barretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09751207256207092328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500416225033991886.post-20203479030799346872007-03-14T12:54:00.000-06:002007-03-14T12:54:00.000-06:00I saw the bid vendors and it was my understanding ...I saw the bid vendors and it was my understanding that when the time runs out it delivers the item to the highest bidder. One of the controls I have on all the limited pieces is that each item name contains the name of the original owner. For instance, if you happen to be a collector and have found the #1 Rugardi Tiara in your hands, then you can authenticate it with the almanac. The tiara, and every other limited piece, will be named like: "Tiara - Rugardi - #1 of 5 - Kimberly Fox". Without the ability to add the name of the original owner's name before delivery, which I don't think bid vendors will allow me to do, then I lose a level of control and authentication. Also, because of the practice of adding the name to the item, the original owner's name becomes part of the legacy of the piece, and I'm told is quite an honor.<BR/>I may be wrong about the functionality of the bid vendors. If I am wrong and can use them like I need to then do please let me know.Random Calliopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15565194811977769039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500416225033991886.post-69009195926984099072007-03-14T12:03:00.000-06:002007-03-14T12:03:00.000-06:00Why don't you use a Bid Vendor instead of silent a...Why don't you use a Bid Vendor instead of silent auctions?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500416225033991886.post-82634061165685544602007-02-26T07:28:00.000-06:002007-02-26T07:28:00.000-06:00On Saturday I had the privilege of attending an ev...On Saturday I had the privilege of attending an event where Tayzia Abattoir, the curator of the Crescent Moon Museum and the NMC Museum, had donated Marc Loves Cleo Necklace #9 for auction to benefit the Metaverse Messenger. A good time was had by all and some stunning prizes were up for bids. The Marc Loves Cleo Necklace #9 went for somewhere around the $L21,000 range, the proceeds of which went to the cause. <BR/><BR/>I believe this was the first instance where a pre-owned RC piece has been publicly auctioned or sold.Random Calliopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15565194811977769039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500416225033991886.post-73630212513302289572007-02-24T22:54:00.000-06:002007-02-24T22:54:00.000-06:00Of course I wouldn't mind posting the info about t...Of course I wouldn't mind posting the info about the gown. The moment I saw this gown I fell in love with it. This designer, Sparkle Skye, has an interesting eye. How befitting that it showcased another's intriguing visual interpretation.:-) Her store is called ImagineNation and the gown is Milady Black & Gold. <BR/><BR/>KaffeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
