Not cheap, they paid a premium for Honey and the citation. But how much more can you find out?

Spink has a QSA/KSA with the KSA to the FID on tonight, for an estimate a tenth of that. It might do.

David. Frank, Ryan and anyone interested
Well, IL had a good stab at the Fielders pair on DNW. Prior to looking at the egg money, out came IL's well thumbed copy of "Bidding for QSA medals at Auction" by Nostradamus (no ISBN :) ) and - swallowing hard at the thought of STG 2.2 plus commission - in went his bid. The pair was duly knocked down at just that price and - lack of a Winning Notification email makes it plain that IL's bid was lodged after that of the winner's.
Congratulations to the winning bidder of the Fielders pair. IL hopes it was a member of this Forum.
Regards to all
IL.

That's a disappointment IL. Sounds like you were frustratingly close.
