    Nope, I walked out while ripping my ticket. Tried to talk to a guy about the outragious bidding and to put it bluntly he told me: "Get rich, stop complaining"

    So, needless to say I was a little ticked off.

    tried to bid on the arcee statue, but the gf stopped me, all in all the auction was pretty crappy, and they should have had a better flow to the items, and better stuff, many people left with nothing, though they had thousands in aution money.

    But the thousands are for charity. :D  I left before the auction started. Probably wouldn't have been able to get anything anyways with my 2000 points. And why did your GF stop you from bidding? Weren't people bidding with the points/credit they got from playing the casino games? Or was real money used for the bidding?

    Funds that night were used from what you won at the gambling tables. I believe I won the most that night. I was the one that bid for the Elita 1 mudflap and Autobot Insignia wheel hub that was on the truck at San Diego comic con at a first bid of $100,000.00. No one else raised there hand so it was mine. I then asked Aaron Archer to sign the back of the hub for me and then he proceeded to draw an awesome very pissed off looking Optimus Prime bust in silver. Thanks Aaron
    :ev:

    I was the one that won the first set at a bid of $100,000 on the first bid. I diplayed them at Wally Burr's table while I was helping him out this past weekend.
