Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

[Probie]

I just sent a question to them about the lid. They'd better not be trying to sell it separately!

And after this, they will want to sell the batteries separately.lol

It's as if they want to sell a sweater worn by Sheppard and they cut the sleeves

HOLD DA PHONE!

Sorry, I'm reeling from the Lost finale and can't think straight, but before you go out and purchase hosting space, I have a TON that's available to use. I use Dreamhost and they're fantastic and I currently have almost nothing up there right now with an insane amount of space (I have half a terrabyte of bandwidth and 10000 Gigs of HD space that is free for use.)

If you need it, it's yours.

Great. Now we need Kris to show up since she was looking into this. But I think atlantisrisingonline.com is our best choice.

Mint jar! Whee! I hope it goes to a Sparky. No, I'm not going to bid.

[Probie]

Euro is stronger than Dollar. I should try for this one auction.lol

Agreed.

I was going to bid... but if it doesn't even come with the lid, I'm not. I don't like incomplete items.

[Southern Red]

Agreed.

Though it really would be nice to see this valuable item go for a high price. LOL

And I would've been willing to pay a high price, too. Relatively high, at least.

Wow, lot's of activity all of a sudden

Ok, I also checked sgarising.com and that's also still available. So we have a couple of options. Although I'd still go for a .com address as that is the easiest for people to remember.
And I tend to go for one.com as host, but since Eri has hosting space, we only need the name. Which will make it cheaper

And OMG the jar!!!!! I so want to bid on it!!!!!!!
But I don't want to bid against anyone here, so if someone here, is bidding on it, let me know and also let me know when you give up, cause maybe I'll go higher

My vote would be for atlantisrisingonline.com since that's close to our new title but I'll go along with sgarising.com if everyone else would rather have that. I agree that .com is the best option.

I'm going to wait until close to the end of the auction to see how high it goes. Go for it if you want the jar. And if you don't get outbid, I won't bid. I want someone here to get it. It doesn't matter whom.

[Scary Kitty]

Okay, I just got a response from Propworx about the jar:

Hi there!

We do have a jar with a lid that will be in the live auction
later this year. This is the only remaining jar beyond that, and it does
not have a lid.

Best,

David

So there's our answer. The one currently up is a duplicate, probably an extra that was made in case the primary was damaged. I'll be bidding on the complete jar at the live auction.

Agreed on all counts.

I'll definitely be keeping an eye on the final price with an eye to how high the complete jar might go at the live auction.

Well, if you're gonna be bidding on the jar at the live auction, I think I'm gonna go for this half-assed one
If it's not going for too much, cause I don't want to spend TOO much money on a half-assed one

You can't compare the two... propworx put some items up for auction at Fedcon and a black Sheppard shirt only went for €55 (if I had known that, I would have bid more) while the Elizabeth shirt went for €160 (or something along these lines). On the ebay auction, Sheppard stuff usually goes for WAY much more than Elizabeth stuff... So even if the half jar now goes for an insane amount, you can't be sure the same will happen during the live auction.

Heh, true dat. Honestly, I wouldn't even pay $100 for an incomplete one. But that's just me.

Oh, I'm well aware of that. But my bank account is prepared, nevertheless.

Yay, I'll wait too but don't want to have to outbid you. *polishes credit card* Just kidding. I wish there was some way to keep the price down so you can get it. Though if we ever meet at a con, I want to touch it. And I love how they're pushing the fact that John gave it to her for her birthday. Even the auction is shippy. LOL

*polishes own credit card and whistles innocently* Hah! If I do win it, it'll be staying in a nice shiny display case in my office. Though pilgrimages by Sparkies visiting the LA area can be arranged.

That totally cracked me up!
