Name the most you'd pay. We bid for you, just enough to stay in front, like eBay. Nobody sees your max, not even Captain Nemo.

How the bidding works (the short version of the Articles)
  • The first bid starts a 7-day clock. When it hits zero, the top bidder wins.
  • Enter your max. The price only climbs as far as needed to keep you in front, so you may win for less.
  • Each bid has to beat the price by a small step. Ties go to whoever bid first.
  • Some pieces carry a reserve, a minimum price kept secret. If bidding ends below it, the piece doesn't sell. The box tells you if it's met.
  • A bid in the last 5 minutes resets the clock to 5 minutes. No sniping.
  • Win, and we email a pay link. You have 3 days to pay. Pickup is at the South Loop dock.
  • A bid is a promise to buy. Please bid only if you mean it.

Taking a squint at it...

Description

Here’s a hound no landlubber can scare off. He’s welded from scrap steel: a half-pipe body, big floppy sheet-metal ears, two pipe-fitting eyes, a round ball nose and a long steel tongue hanging out the front. His legs are cut steel with spiky fur edges, each one ending in a paw made from a cluster of steel balls, and his hooked tail is up like he just heard the dinner bell.

The whole crew has an even, natural rust patina, the colour of an old anchor chain. A few cobwebs are still tucked underneath, shown in the photos, and they ship free of charge.
