Pumpkins for 2017:

Finished!

This is the progress below.

Spanish Bull Overhaul:

This big boy is being stripped down and repainted. I'm not wasting another $7 bucks listing him for another week in Ebay and not having his reserve met.  The last auction, his bids went  just .50 cents shy of his reserve and still didn't go.  I sent a second chance auction to the last two people with the highest bids (which was less than the reserve) and they never purchased, which goes to show that Ebay is all about the rush of the "WIN" and not the purchase of an item you truly want.  People will bid through the roof on something and lose it but when they're offered a second chance to buy it, then they say after they have time to think about it for a minute,  "ehhhhh nahh nevermind, I don't really want it afterall".   So he's being repainted to a flashy roan then he's going back up at a higher reserve than he was the first time. 

The annoyances of selling things on Ebay.
