Hi Jon,
Thank you for posting the list, just before I take out my dancing shoes for a victory lap... I'll wait for confirmation, got some nice "Horse" units...(maybe)
Regards

Looking at the posted list I have bombed out, looks like I am the bridesmaid (underbidder) on my selections, mumble, grumble....................

Stephen,

You and me both - again!

I can't complain though as three of my bids covered the two Pietersburg QSAs and the other was for McSherry and I was way off all three of these.

Well done to those who achieved more success. I look forward to seeing some of these items if you have a chance to post some images.

Best wishes
David

Thanks for posting this David

I've not yet received my e-mail.

I note quite a number of these QSA's are from the previous bumper sale. Couldn't have sold or otherwise were put back on auction?

Still, there's one or two (perhaps 3 or more....) that have grabbed my attention.

I think competition for White's Natal Police group will be quite stiff.

Regards

Rory

Rory,

White's group would be nice at R1400 eh?
