I've found in the past that when all of the maids show up at once like that, you have a discipline issue and really need to take a good hard look at matters. Once you have a situation where the help is in competition like that then things can get sticky. Grab the problem with both hands man! If you don't tackle that problem soon you'll find them all pestering you in the middle of the night! I can help! It so happens that I have openings on my staff and could use a pair of them. While normally I'd leave those domestic issues to my wife, in this instance I'll simply say that I'd be happy to take any two of them off your hands. What's the point of having a forum like this if we can't help each other out now and then? So I'll waive the interviews and just PM my address to you. I assume that you'll cover travel expenses for them? Isn't it good that we can help each other out like this?

Oh, the generosity of the members of this forum never cease to amaze me!!!

I am out at $1500. So who will get it? There is about 1h left...

I bet it gets at least to $1700... That's a lot more than I was expecting, but I guess when you link something to a place like this, it's just asking for a bidding war

wow. i'm just watching but the thought is nice. My guess is 1800, anyone?

Well, you guys will be competing against me and at least one more Swedish member of our forum.
I'm the highest bidder now.
Who will be standing when the dust settles?

so did you got the set? like I said I am out.

Nope. That is more than I make in a month. Dang.
It is a beautiful set, though. Looks unused and with ivory scales.

I am just lucky that the friend that is bidding for me on this is not at the computer right now because I would probably ask him to increase my bid and will end up paying to much for this set. So it is a "good" thing he can not access his computer and increase my bid. I keep watching that and I am thinking well... since I went as high as $1500 why not increase by 2-300$ but I guess in the end I will be happy that I didn't spent that much on a set. I hope I will be happy or else I will hate my friend for choosing the worst time to not be around the computer.

One can only wonder how many sets, with weekdays in Swedish,in this shape, that exists.
It is truly a rare find.

Ok I can't stand it anymore... since my friend can not get to his computer in time to increase my bid is anyone here willing to bid for me on this... I will make it worth the effort. If yes please PM
