Regular Member Loomis Posted October 20, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 20, 2008 Smaller selection this time. I am hoping to get the black ranchu. Doubt I will though. Definitely some bigger fish this time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Loomis Posted October 20, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 20, 2008 We'll I'm trying to get one. Last weeks auction had nicer ranchu. I'm really kicking myself now. But there are a few that are still nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LOW ET Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 i got a red ranchu from the last auction and was looking for a black one this time, but they are going for ALOT of cash this time around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member lynda441 Posted October 20, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 20, 2008 Have you seen this week auction at goldfishconnection? Ranchus look so huge. Are they able to move? Even my Kabuki at a 3" body size has a bit of trouble puttering around, but I really think it's because of the bent tail vs. not having a dorsal fin that gives them the trouble. Kind of hard to waggle your tail and guide yourself around when it's all pinched up! Of course, her pec and vent fins are sooooo tiny, that can't help much either! And when you're huge, that's gotta be even more difficult! I see the Reserve is back on this time. Ooh! I know! There were no reserves when I bid. We'll I'm trying to get one. Last weeks auction had nicer ranchu. I'm really kicking myself now. But there are a few that are still nice. Good luck Loomis! I sure hope you get what you want! Just remember, don't bid on it until the last minute! You'll just artificially raise the price, which is silly! Of course, you, or somebody, needs to reach that reserve limit, but aside from that, the best strategy is to just sit back and watch very closely and don't show your hand until the end... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Loomis Posted October 20, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 20, 2008 When's his new batch going to go on? I want the black ranchu, but if someone else wants it I guess I can wait. All I want is a nice black one to add to what I have. I have a blue ranchu,3 red/white,1 yellow/white,one calico, and a lemon head. I think a black one would look nice in my tank. Low ET if you REALLY want that one on this week's auction, I won't bid on it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Loomis Posted October 27, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 27, 2008 Well looks like I got the black ranchu from Ken's auction. Good timing, I just setup the 125. I know Ken will try to get me to buy another fish because I pay around 120.00 for shipping so I might have to have him hang on to the fish for the week to see what's on this weeks auction and see how many hours I work this weekend. Anyone else win one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member lynda441 Posted October 27, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 27, 2008 Yup, that's what I was wondering... anyone else buy a nice big, fat goldy this time around?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
