We now have TWO (2) genuine article H.A.M.B. tag toppers... one from me, one from fellow HAMB'r KJSR. These are virgin castings, brand new, never been mounted or messed with, ready to be finished by you. Photos of mine below, and a post later in this thread about the other one. First and second place bidders will EACH get one! Let's do this auction until 10 PM Central Daylight Time Tuesday Aug. 6. I'll PM the winner and once I get confirmation that the amounts have been paid to the memorial fund they'll go out, on our dimes. THANK YOU ALL for your bids and for remembering Anthony and his family.
Once more before I retire for the evening (us old guys need our beauty rest...!) Bump in the night... Also sent a PM to Mr. Mod Kevin about a sticky, like he doesn't already have enuff to do. Thanks.
Update - just got a PM from another H.A.M.B.'er who also has a tag topper he wants to auction for the Castaneda family. So there should be another one coming up here - we're talking about TWO tag toppers, with first AND second-place bidders each getting one. Would that be okay with you guys?? Will update here as soon as we nail everything down.
Its nailed down! First and second highest bidder both get a HAMB topper. I will send mine out (on my dime) when Terry gives me the green light. Same deal as his, brand new, never painted and even in the NOS plastic bag!!! Good on you guys helping this family out! Thanks to Terry for the inspiration on this one. Good luck guys!
This is cool. Thanks Eric (KJSR) for doing this. And above all, thanks to all you guys for the bids. I don't know how many more bids we'll see on these but it's already way over what I figured. Great response for a good cause.
Well, that wraps it up I guess.. the top donation comes from Raidmagic at $160, second spot is fat141 at $150. I'll PM you guys and we'll get everything figured out. Thanks a bunch to everyone who bid, also to KJSR for scrounging up that second tag topper. Well done! And please everyone, keep Anthony Castaneda's family and friends in your thoughts and prayers.
I'm always in awe of the power of the Hamb and it's members to help out when it is needed most,,congratulations to the winners and thank you for the generous bids, HRP
Got mine today, you guys are a class act! Thanks. Sorry it had to be under these circumstances though....
Thank you very much Terry, my topper arrived today (Wed down here). Will be a treasured item, re circumstances. A little praise here for Terry .... it cost him 50 bucks to get that thing down here for me. Thanks again and all the best wishes to Anthony's family. RIP Rod
