a dove headed peragrine :-/

and so say the vast majority,

I have taken this thread off the NOTICE BOARD, and put it on PIGEON POLITICS, as this is what it now has become, but close watch will be taken, and if any posts become agro or dangerous accusations etc it will be removed for the webmasters notice.

but the vast majority dont Stuart, as they know you, well done

yes well done once more Stuart,

yes its not easy,

I think auctions on the site are good, and if you know who is selling them all the better, as the one which started off this thread, by Swilcox, well known and a genuine fancier, i have delt with him and his belgium partner in person at Blackpool and have always been pleased with what i have got, i have purchased birds from them at Blackpool and on site, and can say in my view they will always give you a good deal.

i agree with the 10 min, as an auction is to the highest bidder, if bidding is still taking place at closing surely all bidders should get the chance to come in, pm bids i dont agree with as you dont really know how the bidding is standing, but ita up to the person doing the auction to make what is what clear before the start, or maybe p/basics should put down the rules, this would save a lot of disagreements,

peragrine dove,
