Re: Auction help

I will get there as close to 6 as possible. I've been
a fish club auctioneer for the last 10 years in NJ and
other places so count me in for that job. The best
thing one can do for the auctioneer is *label the bags
clearly* with lot number, # of items and genus/species
and/or common names. Having to puzzle out someones
hieroglyphics is very annoying.

If it's a very unusual item (typically fish), it's not
bad to include what kind of fish it is - livebearer,
killifish, cichlid, ... Usually I can tell just by
looking, though. For plants, 'floating' or 'rooted'
and maybe some info on how it reproduces (runners,
splitting)

And, if I'm the auctioneer, I will *guarantee* I will
make fun of bags of common snails like pond snails or
ramshorns. I don't joke around with unusual snails
like apple snails, however. Tacky tank ornaments are
worth a good laugh, too.
