only problem with me carpooling...I'd have to drive to Ottawa first then back track ;) HAHAHA

Unless people wanted to meet at Exit 51??

I didn't see an English version around, and as far as I can tell, the registration isn't open yet (although today is the date it is said to be open). Me or someone else can post a link to the pre-registration page once it opens.

Note.
You can only sell 3 bags of each item.  The 4th item gets donated to the club.
You can check with them if you have any problems.

Where do they show all the info about rules on sales?I did the french to english translation and I didn't see this.  I have various strains of discus I was going to take, does this mean I can only sell three fish of the same variety (strain) example blue diamonds or can I do 3-blue diamonds and 3 snakeskins to classify as two different items?

How long does this auction usually last as well?

I still have room in my car if anyone is interested in going.

Okay,

Now I am having a problem trying to contact them....the address they use to contact them doesn't work....can someone help me to contact them.

Thanks

The item limitation is in bags, meaning you can have three bags of the same, the fourth one is an automatic donation. It's up to you how many fish you put into the bag. I would consider different strains as different items, just label them properly.

Auction tends to finish around 6pm, similar to our auction. Will depend on participation.

Alrighty,

Does anyone know how to contact them other than the email addy listed on the sign up page? 



It doesn't work for me.  I have tried a couple of times to contact them and it just gets returned back.

Thanks Robert.

Received an email from Christian of the SAM club. He said better use the following link to register your items instead of the  address. Deadline is this evening for 25% otherwise the club commission will be 40% thereafter.
