So that makes the total just over one quarter of a million pounds. THAT'S FRIGGIN AWESOME!

I'll do it... I can just put it in a spreadsheet. After all, I love numbers. tee hee Have you hugged an actuary today?

Which one?... :dance:

The hat would be cool to wear, but I'm not a Jonny person, so I hope one of the Jonny fans here get it!

And I thought they said the stuff would go for a "song". :lol:

go to "completed listings" on the left side of the page

Ooooh, almost had Will's jacket. Literally the last second. "A" for effort, I suppose. Will's embedded DNA would have been nice, but I'll live. :tongue:

I think if they had waited to sell the globe today, it would have gone for a lot more.

I'm glad I don't play guitar

Spare 2 went from 4400 to 10,000 pounds

Spare 1 went from 4337 to 12,750 pounds this is so amusing

Gibson Blues King 3 went from 4300 to 10,050 pounds

And the next one went for 12,100 pounds...

Holy crapper! The VIVA guitar went from 5900 pounds to 15,000 pounds in the last minute! I figured it would go up, but DANG.

Yeah, I ran into the same problem with PayPal (even though you get verified for no limit, there actually is a limit). Over the past few pages in this thread I posted my experience; basically everything will be okay, if PayPal doesn't work you can arrange another form of payment (probably just a bank draft, though). I just got an e-mail from PayPal this morning, saying thanks for using PayPal "Your first PayPal purchase; wasn't it a breeze?" :dozey: I laughed so hard. I'm thinking "no, it wasn't a breeze, I spent 2 days on the phone with you, and I didn't actually get to purchase it through you so what the f*** are you talking about".

But you've got 2 kidneys, right? I think you really only need 1...

I'm not sure yet... my original plan (before bidder 18 backed out on the globe) was to go for Will's drum from the Talk video and his jacket. But after Monday, that original plan obviously changed. But I'm still kind of thinking about the jacket. I would rather someone else who hasn't got anything yet have it if they are really in the running for it. But if nobody else is, then I might try. He's my favorite member, so far it is going for less than the others, it's the least gaudy of the jackets, the color would accent my eyes well, :lol:, and it would make a lovely spring jacket. :lol::D:lol:

Does anyone plan on going for Will's jacket today?...

First question: Yes, I did (on Monday). Second question: No, so I feel your pain. :bigcry:

Afeather, you're hilarious! :laugh3: I mean, I can tell you're being serious, but I just love the tone in your post. I can't tell how much of your tone was influenced by the 2-3 stiff drinks you mentioned. :drunkjoe: Anywho, which song are you referring to? EDIT: Nevermind my question, I neglected to read the part of the big bold pink text that mentioned the song. :freak: Forgive me, I'm a little out of it as I woke up around 4am because of the crazy loud scraping snowplow running through my neighborhood. Oh, but I will ask, since I know you were concerned about it... did you run into any problems with PayPal, or was everything okay?

As some of us theorized earlier, this may actually be one of the most unique items being auctioned. It seems this guitar was "plain" during the X&Y tour, and they painted it afterward as "practice" for painting the other guitars for the Viva tour. Unique indeed.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I thought that one would be reasonable given the price earlier, but it increased by $3,000 or so in the last few minutes. That was surprising.

Ha! That's too funny! What a coinkiedink. Well congrats to you. Makes me wonder who would have gotten it if we were both going for it. :D

Yeah, haven't heard anything, I'm curious too. I would have gone for Will's drum from the Talk video, but I um, already got something the other day when "Bidder 18" retracted their bid. :tongue:

Wow, Jonny's signed platinum disc went for more than Chris'. Maybe he can celebrate with....... CAKE. :freak:
