I have been to the last two but I thought the catalogue entries for this sale didn't look very exciting. It's a 2.5 hour drive each way which I don't mind if there's some items I have got my eye on but there isn't. That being said, I hope you have an enjoyable and fruitful couple of days.

Hoping there are a few other trade tables that may have other interesting items for sale

I was there yesterday adding an Allcocks Wizard and Lucky Strike to the collection. I was thinking to myself 'I
how many people in this room contribute to TFF?'

Maybe we should develop some sort of secret handshake.

Not a bad day sold a few rods and bits and found a few spares for other rods that are being restored.The Edward Barder Merlin went for £646.00 plus commission a very nice rod had little use.Never sure is it was knocked down at that as the guide price was £700.00-800.00. The Shaun Lindsay The Perfection Carp No1 again the last bid was £340 when price guide was £500-600.00. Some lots did not get to sellers gived expections..In one case £10000 guide prices that fetched only £6000 that were sold without reserve.

I didn't go in the end, after looking through the catalogue I wasn't very enthralled by what was on offer, so I stopped at home and enjoyed my Birthday with the family instead.

Planned to bid for this but it opened at £500 which was my limit still never mind ahttp://www.mullocksauctions.co.uk/lot-665947-r ... igned.html

People got good deals on the Barder and Lindsay rods. Do you recall what either of the MkIV Carps sold for? One was Tom O'Reilly branded rod that I presume was an Agguter's blank.

The Tom O Reilly sold for £220 do not know what the others sold for.

There were a few Exalta's for sale on the day, anybody catch any of the selling prices?
I was going to attend but instead spent my money on the Superb, I don't think my wallet would have stood a day at an auction.
