A Very Special Celebration Auction
  • While Trick Treat Extra GP is and will remain a very exclusive stallion, I have decided to auction off 5 guaranteed straws in honor of the birth of my great nephew Zeke. We welcomed him on Thursday, Jan. 28th, a little early from his Feb. 6th due date, by emergency c-section. He weighs 5 pds 2 ozs and is 18 1/2 inches long. Because the pregnancy was high risk from the beginning and then the c-section and the very happy ending, I decide to share with my GP boy.

    Trick Treat Extra GP is a Trick or Treat rank special stallion that Ammit was gracious enough to grant a weekend wish on. He is hz for Gulastra Plume, and hetro for both sb1 and w2. This is the only time that he will be offered to the public, other than other GP breeders in order for the lines to get new blood in the lines.

    There are restrictions to the straws and resulting foals. I will guarantee an intact foal, since Trick Treat Extra GP is hz for GP, the foal will carry 1 GP gene. There is no guarantee for the sb1 or the w2. All foals and decendants are to remain in house. Any violation of that restriction will result in you being blocked from any and all of my stock.

  • Congrats on your little nephew! I got a new one of those myself (my first) almost exactly a year ago. :)

    Would you mind putting a link to the stud so we can admire his fanciness?
    And, when you are ready for some new blood, I have 2 GP foundation stallions and would love to trade, message me.

    Wowsers!
  • I know, I'm thinking the same thing but I am bound and determined to get at least one horse to start a GP line lol one just one pleeeeeease
  • Uhm. You are supposed to up the lowest bid tho. I feel kinda singled out when you up my bid when it's the highest bid there is. Not very nice at all.

  • You had two bids I was simply trying to give everyone a chance. I wasn't singling anyone out. Abbey took my bid when there was two open spots for bidding. I didn't take that as her singling me out.

  • There is a difference between taking one of two bids that are the same, and taking the bids that are not the lowest. That is very rude.

  • FJ, I didn't do that intentionally... I'm guessing I we were maybe typing at the same time. If I did, I apologize.

    I do rather think that in an auction with this many people wanting in, it's polite to limit yourself to one bid... especially if you're a person who has GP and can trade with Terri at some point. I'll leave that call to Terri, though.
  • I don't see it as rude at all, but I'm sorry if I offended you. That was not my intention. We are adults after all and can lay this to rest without it getting heated.
  • Not offended at all, just wanted to make sure you realized I didn't intentionally snipe your bid. I was surprised when I read that I'd bid over top of yours, I didn't realize it.
  • My comment was to Maribo Abbey not you :) You didn't offend me at all. I'm not easily put off.
    Thanked by 1Abbey Road
  • Because of the time difference, I am going to extend this auction until Monday at 6pm game time. I hate that there have been problems with the bids, this was supposed to be a celebration of happiness not something to cause problems between players. I know that everyone will step up and play nice :)
  • Tuesday at 10am (the time it ends for me) works for me ! Thanks a ton Terri!
  • ok, lol, Tuesday at 11 am is the new end date, no problem Cheers, I want to be fair with the players in other time zones :)
  • That's why I apologized. This is suppose to be fun and celebrating the birth of a new baby. Thank you Terri for opening your stub up to the public :)
  • No, Terrri. Monday at 6pm game time is 10am Tuesday my time. It's perfect. Sorry, I'm only 1 cup of coffee in at the moment...I wasn't clear enough the first time!
  • ok, then back to Monday at 6pm lol. and I appreciate the fact that you apologized fj1482, it was sweet of you to do that
  • As someone who has only been a spectator of this auction I didn't think anyone was doing anything to be malicious. I would have probably done the same thing in fjs place. Taking one of someone who had two bids. She was only trying to make sure everyone had a fair chance not trying to step on toes at least that's what I got out of it

  • Ok, this blew up. First, beadingterri, sorry if you felt that the thread took a negative turn, that was not my intention.

    Second, I feel that an auction should be an auction, if there is a limit of one straw each, then that is of course fine, but if not, you should not be pushed because you bid for two.

    Third, that I have a GP foundie has nothing to do with it, as he will not be shared. I usually do not share my expensive foundies. I have done so a few times, and the lines go all Willy nilly and the quality goes way way below what I prefer, and that ruins the fun for me.

    Also, I am sad that the end time was moved. You can never please everyone, so now it is in the middle of the night for me, and I will have no possibility of checking it before it closes. Usually I would up my bids high, but that will not work here.

  • Bummer, I missed out on this one since it was extended. And I was not able access the Internet after it was extended.
