Auction Auction!!! Red Hot!!!First Coast Discus

[rickztahone]

I want to raise the bar a little bit here. These are very, very nice fish and the free shipping adds $100-$150 of value to the auction. But the purpose is not just for one person to get these nice fish; the purpose is to raise money for simply. I'm going to bid ONCE more, mostly because I don't realistically have a tank for these guys (though I can slap one up in a hurry if I got really lucky). My bid comes with a pledge, and I want to see if anyone else will do this:

I'm bidding $725. I seriously don't think that's enough to win this auction, so I'm also pledging to donate 10% of that bid if I don't win. So Simply will get $72.50 out of me regardless. Are any of the previous bidders or future bidders willing to do the same?

Very generous indeed Lindsay. I know what it is like not having a tank setup for something you are bidding on, but I'm sure it can be done! Good luck!

Thanks Ricardo,

I will be seriously shocked if someone doesn't increase this bid. These fish retail for $200 each, I'm sure, plus the shipping and FDBW's....it's a steal at $725. I will have a tank up in no-time and be doing a happy dance the whole time. My realistic meter, sadly, says that this auction is about an $1100 value. But my fingers are crossed!!!

Three day count down folks. These are sweet fish. I have seen them in person so I know. At this rate Lindsay is walking away with a sweet deal.

Just under 12 hours left everyone. Dont miss out on these awesome fish and the chance to do a good thing here for SimplyDiscus. We don't get these opportunities often to auction off Fish here...but when we do they are always super nice Fish..hand picked for us.

You know you want these fish...go for it!

Good luck !

Less than 4:30 left and this bid still stands? That's pretty amazing. Too bad my taxes didn't come out better.

Less than 2 hours to go... Lindsay, you may need to get a tank ready!

[astrochick00]

This is insane. I did bring a tank up, just in case. I can't believe that there's not somebody out there that's just playing it cool and waiting until the 11th hour to try to keep the price down. These are the nicest RSG's I've ever seen.

$775.

Congratulations, Liz! And thank you to everyone who bid in the auction. These have been one of my favorite strains since I first saw them in person in 2014. I jumped at the chance to import them again. Ricky does not have these available very often!

[Second Hand Pat]

Congrats Liz, very nice group of fish. One of my favorites too.

Ryan I've had tried unsuccessfully to buy a pair of good non-albino RSGs for 8 years. I even tried having a sponsor here special order some for me!

These fish are more than I ever dreamed of owning. They are magnificent. They are show fish. I thought that they'd go for $1000. to $1200. They should have. I hope you can take consolation the fact that you have fulfilled my wildest discus dream. Thank you,
Liz

Big congratulations Liz! For those here who don't know Liz, I can assure you she will give them the best of homes. They will want for nothing.
