https://blockchain.info/address/15Zd8AwtGLJHhcDWQwgi13AdYnwrszn7M4

Absolutely, after I receive some info from Hhampuz I will do so. No point going to step 2 before step 1, you know? Your patience is appreciated. Congrats on the win, thanks again.

Thank you again to everyone who came together and put in the effort to make this happen. In time, I'm excited to share, or for Jarrett to share, what your contributions are helping to achieve.

All the best,

Max-

ARE you going to reply to my PM?

That is very gracious of you JanEmil, Thank You. I will gladly honor my bid

Congrats everyone!

Thank you from Denmark

Lot 3 paid 

Maybe it will be.

I'm giving these back to the future things anyway to people that like back to the future

I’m just taking a break from preparing a Haven hive for installation and got a message from Max that I should check out the latest auction results. What a great reason to press pause on work!

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thanks so much to Ty, Ticked, ZipReg and all the bidders for your generosity to the Haven project! Again!!!

Ty, I loved reading about your grandfather. Your descriptions of his character are very similar to my immigrant grandparents. They were both from farming families and after immigrating to the U.S. continued to maintain incredible vegetable gardens. It is their legacy of beekeeping passed down to me from my mother that has translated into my creation of the Haven project!

Many years ago I spent a summer living with a family in Italy and while I never made it to Scanno I absolutely loved my time there and the local passion for fresh food and of course honey. Thank you so much to your girlfriend’s family for donating a jar of their precious nectar to the auction. Maybe someday I will travel back and have a chance visit their town. (Ticked, you’re right! one of the best parts of beekeeping is tasting the various flavors of honey as the season progresses and the local flowers providing nectar change.)

And of course a big shout out to Hhampuz for for picking up the slack and hosting the final days of the auction. THAT is the essence of community and how the bees would do it!

Best,
Jarrett

That works for me I guess, as long as it works for you guys

---

I'm relaying this message that I got from Ty over at slack:

"Thank you everyone for participating in Save the Bees II !  While I wish I could be the one saying all this directly, I contributed to unnecessary work for this forums leaders and I’m now embarrassingly paying the price for it.

That said..last night a buddy sent some Kialara porn for me to browse through (Cuz that’s what us nerds do) and as I was checking it out/drooling on myself I looked up at the tv and a commercial popped on for a local university that was touting their .. bee rejuvenation program. I’ve never seen a bee conservancy commercial or even magazine article before. What are the odds?!  I like to think it was a good omen that meant better times are ahead! Thank you all for participating, Ticked for donating a small truck load of stuff,  and thanks to Max and Jarrett for being awesome and bringing awareness to this great project. Though my forum days may be over ...I know there’s a good number of you who’d happily host Save the Bees 3..which is my plan for down the road.

All the winners will be sent my email address by Hampz ..who I’d also like to thank for picking up after my mess!  So thanks snow fckr!!!

All my best- Ty"

I will reach out to all winners with a wallet address they can pay to and ask them to give me their shipping info using privnote.com

Thanks all bidders again

I have agreed with ZipReg he win if OK with auction master.

More coins for the bees and more people have a Lot.

As you may or may not know ChiBitCTy is having some real struggles right now when it comes to the forum, I am helping him out by running this auction and these are the current high bids. Now, considering his absence and my lack of stepping in sooner I would like to ask if we couldn't extend this auction a couple of days? Considering the last price bump was 5 days ago.. This is for charity after all.

Hi all,

Chi contacted me off forum and has asked me to let everyone know that he has been locked out of his account. Ill reach out to someone on DT to see if they can help and take over this auction for him..

New Lot Added Plus...
BONUS ADDED- EACH LOT Labeled "+ PENNY" will include a loaded BTC Penny.  4 coins will be loaded consisting of .001BTC, .003BTC, .003BTC, .01BTC ...the kicker is you don't know which coin will include which amount...I will be sending Ticked a list of 4 public keys at random to load once the auction is over, and by the time you receive your coin you will be able to check how much was loaded on it.  We both thought this would be fun.  (GREAT IDEA TICKED)

Lot 4 0.002BTC

lot 2 @ .003

I think Chi can chime in on that

Oh added fun fact I learned last week about lot 4.

So because of the nature of the landscape and the occasionally absurd winters.  Talking 2m overnight. The bees change their travel patterns vastly throughout the year in order to collect nectar.  Different nectar sources means different product.  They DO NOT homogenize the mixtures. Depending on what time of year the harvest was from, you'll get a slightly differing flavor.   my favorite is the first spring harvest as more sugar is produced in cold grown plants. Cheers!

Could you tell about lot 2?

Thanks for all involved, especially you Chi, I wouldn't take the initiative to do this myself. Party on. Bid Hard.

Glad to see it! Mistakes are okay, everyone is new at some point. I've made them that's for sure!

YOU MIGHT NEED TO REFRESH MULTIPLE TIMES

Lot 1- TOYS  + Penny

With the exception of the fiero toy (I just like those), all of these items were inherited to me by my grandfather.  They are all vintage 1982-83 never been opened. (yeah, the D&D dragon box is beat, but the toy is pristine).  When cleaning out his garage, I stumbled onto a pile of boxes filled with toys.  Turns out he had a business importing LJN/other toy goods, & shipping them to a partner in NJ for retail.  This is what stock was left.  For 20 years, we didn't know that every christmas he took a bundle of these and donated them to toys for tots.  These items come from a history of charitable nature. One step further, My grandfather was first generation American, a very DIY man. There wasnt a year he didnt keep a garden. Some years more lush than could be walked through. fruiting enough vegetables to give to the entire family and then the local neighbors. Tomatoes, Zuchinis, grapes, cucumbers, peapods, corn, eggplant you name it. To ensure proper conditions, he used his own horses' manure for fresh soil, and yes of course, even kept bees.  All in all, I felt these items were representative of a man who put forth the efforts to properly sustain farming and ultimately generosity towards all things human or otherwise.

As far as value use, this lot, if I eBay'd piece by piece, would be ~ 400. the triex's have 3 settings and generally net about $20/ea, standard rough riders ive gotten from 15-25. they all run on a single AA battery and have headlights. I may post a picture later. fun little toys. The Japanese Converters...transformers (sepcifically the maladroid with gun) ive seen fetch up to 75+.  The ET set, maybe 30ish.   But mid you this, this stock never saw shelves.  Much of it has no price label. even far less common. Dragonne is 50+ all day. and Mercion 15ish.




Lot 2-Paper Wallets  + Penny  Info- 3 different Polymerbit including 10 Gluden, 10 Garlic 100 Gluden, plus The Mag 7 (missing one note)info here-https://physicalbitcoins.co.uk/product/the-magnificent-7-thug-life-posse/



Lot 3 + Penny - BYOB #127 - you know the original retail price + another 8 oz silver.  5 old Egyptian style silver replica oz's were included for a reason.  Honey...its the only food that doesnt go bad.   Mummies have been found with vats of dried honey, all it took was a little heat and that shit was good to eat again. Just fascinating to me. The cryptocracy DIY coin is of a limited 100 coin run.




Lot 4-Scano Honey

I requested this be in its own lot.  This honey is for someone who truly LOVES honey.  Sourced directly from the producers in Scano, Italy (a mountain village population 2k winter, 10k summer), My girlfriend's extended family makes their livelihood producing this succulent goo.  It looks clearer than anything Ive ever called honey before, but taste sweet, clean, and delicious in a way I can't describe nor have I encountered elsewhere.  The twice yearly allotment that makes its way to the states is fought over internally amongst the family. When I told them of this initiative, they were happy to donate for such a cause.  They've been keeping bees for generations, speaking further to the fact that sustainability in bee farming needs to be maintained, and select groups are doing so.  The best vote is to vote with your dollar (or bits) and buy from either local, or vendors who are known to practice proper methodologies.  I hope this lot goes to an appreciator of flavors.  Fantastic in your tea or used as a glaze. For tea, this shit is potent, itll last.  If you want it on top of your melted brie. God help you, Ill get a case in order for you next time.
