There was an INCIDENT this week with a neighbor's Bull Mastiff, and poor Maggie the Auction Hound was bitten in the hind leg. She is recovering nicely and suggests that we no longer walk down THAT street any more!
Craig Stark's series on How to Sell Books Online is finished, but he promised to keep writing for us. I've already put in a request to Craig since I'd like to learn more about how he packs and ships his books. You can contact Craig and other experts on our Forum at http://www.auctionbytes.com/forum/phpBB/index.php .
David wanted to have some fun today, so he created an Auction Lovers Crossword Puzzle http://www.auctionbytes.com/crossword/crossword.html . This may become a regular feature (a little easier than the Sunday New York Times crossword). If you'd like to submit a puzzle for us to post, email David at dsteiner@auctionbytes.com and he'll give you specifics. If we use your crossword, we'll send you $20 inside an AuctionBytes mug!
