How Embarrassing.......

Hi everyone - Just came on to say me and a friend had a bit of a bet that you couldn't sell artwork for silly prices on ebay. So I put one of mine on and hid it in the pages of modern art for a ridiculous sum. Sat back and waited for - well, nothing really.

Was looking at our wax pics while I was on there and blow me - there's my painting sitting on that site. Never used ebay before and didn't realise it goes all over the place to such an extent.

So, having only just joined you all - don't want you to think I've got delusions of grandeur or anything.... :groan :kb: :kb:

If I'd really wanted to sell it, I'd have put it in for a reasonable price. Oh well - it's on now - and we don't know how to get it off - so, bear with me - well I guess if I get a bid :rlol: we can all go mad with our prices......

Have a nice weekend all......

Terry, if you count all those hours you spent cutting, selecting and pasting, this is a bargain! ;)

It is a lovely piece, remember I asked you if I could show it to my students?
They were really blown away, so I'm sure you will sell it.

Will you deliver the beverage (a dry white wine, please) here in Canada or do I fly over there :r

Best regards,
Thea :hug:

Terry I'll have a hot cup of tea with just a splash of Kentucky sipping whiskey to warm me up. :r I really hope you get a bid. That is just beautiful. Raise the bar on that art. Give all us "iron swingers" a reason to raise our heads up high. :r :thumbup; :thumbup; :thumbup;

Oh - you are all lovely - well, having had a sleepless night in the cringe position - I came on to see if I had any friends left and what do you know- you all appear to be dehydrated.......keep those tipple orders rolling in.

Tell you what - ebay only charged pds 2 to put it on - and it's turned out to be the best laugh I've had in ages (just goes to show what a sad person I am..)

What a brilliant site this is..... :thumbup;
