For some reason your post was not showing up as of 807pm. Not sure what that's about.

All of your posts as a new memebrs need to be approved by a mod and therefore didn't appear until I just approved them. Up to @johnjohn on how he wants to proceed as its his auction.

Don't intend to thread crap here, but shouldn't these situations, albeit rare, be handled via forum rules vs. leaving the seller in an uncomfortable position?

 

[softchewy]

I'll abide by whatever johnjohn decides.. if it stays as is and co35fire is interested, I'll let go of 1 rack to him/her.

 

[co35fire]

The Seller posted awesome chips and sold them in support of a great cause. I am truly sorry if a misunderstanding on my part put anyone in an uncomfortable position. I guess I just need to be more active on the forums.

Since my post appeared on the thread, I mistakenly thought I was good. I take full responsibility. I most certainly was not trying to put anyone on the spot.

 

[johnjohn]

I've made the call. @softchewy is the winner based on the data I had in front of me. Again, thanks for those who bid on this and supporting a good cause.
