darlene Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 I eventually found it, and thanks to Cheri I got there. Thanks!What a lineup of exciting items! I've placed my bids already. May at least ONE win! --D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted January 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 This last item's taking it's time showing up in the listing so here's a heads up: PERSONALIZED RASPBERRIES GUITAR PICKS Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim From Wisconsin Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Some cool stuff there! I'm sure the bidding will accelerate during the week. I think a great add-on that would attract a lot of interest (If it could be arranged) would be the opportunity to receive a personal phone call from Eric! I would imagine that some of the fellow board members would pay a fair amount of money to get a call from Eric. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stringer Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Great idea Tim. I'm sure you're right. I don't know if I could talk if Eric called me. You'd have to give him a script to read, to someone breathing on the other end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarBabi7 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Exactly.I had a hard enough time remembering my own name when I met him at the LA concert.I knew I came in with one, but darned if I could remember what it was, had it for years, signed it to things many times, but for the life of me I couldn't think what it was, went totally blank could have used a cue card, I was mortified!Sugar :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smittie Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I'm having fun bidding! Some items are going quite high already! Good luck everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 The nice thing about this auction, is that most of us will get something, and even if we lose "our heart's desire," we'll know it went to someone we love and who loves Eric and Raspberries. We'll also help keep the website in great shape! A win-win situation all around! --Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 It will be interesting to see where the ABM signed lyrics end up- they're at $350 and it's still the 1st day! Tip for those not familiar with ebay- if Bernie used "Eric Carmen" and "Raspberries" in the description of the item, it will appear in both places on ebay. If he only used one name or the other in the description, the item will only appear under that name ("Raspberries" for 'berries stuff and "Eric Carmen" for Eric's stuff). Wouldn't want anyone to miss out on the fun Kirk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 It was cool of Eric to include the "Holy Grail" for Bernie. Who's idea was that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I know, Tony--it IS the "Holy Grail." WOW! I can only imagine where the price is going to go! I think a few copies of Eric's lyrics could possibly finance EC.com for the rest of its life!I'm listening to Chris DeBurgh's "Nothin' Ever Happens Round Here" and I always think of you when I hear his music. Nobody can say "Nothin' Ever Happens Round EC.com now!" --Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I'm thinking the lyrics will easily go above $1000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazumi Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I agree with you, Gene. I want it, too, but just can't afford. Kazumi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarBabi7 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I agree with you Kazumi.However, I am willing to accept it as a Valentine's gift from the lucky winner. (Yeah, that'll happen.)Sugar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnO Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Bernie - The idea of Eric calling people is a good one. Brian Wilson was doing this last year - personally calling anyone who donated $100 or more to a Katrina Relief fund he had set up. It would raise a lot of money for this site, I'm sure.Question - Are the personalized guitar picks the same ones that were given to the Meet & Greeters in LA in October? Just wondering......

Raspbernie Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 JohnO, The cost of housing and maintaining this website will be covered by the current auction, so thanks to everyone for their support. As for the guitar picks, I don't know what was handed out at the L.A. "Meet and Greet," but I asked Eric, Wally, Dave and Jim for these and they reached into their pockets to hand them to me :-)Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Suddenly, I feel I got more than my money's worth at the LA Meet and Greet after looking at what those picks are bidding for...Along with the shot from Jim and the strangulation from Eric...

Tony Cartmill Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I think Clive (The Hives) Davis is going to swoop in on the last hour and outbid everybody for ABM lyrics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 ("The HIVES???!!!") Tony, you're a scream! --Darlene PS I'm listening to "Love of the Heart Divine" and thinking of you. I will FOREVER think of you whenever I hear this song. All of them on that cd, really, but especial LOTHD... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAM Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Whoever the heck "linksmusic" is on e-bay, he's bound & determined to own most everything in the auction. My mad money was shot in the first 3 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspberries4ever Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 You're not the only one, MAM! I guess we'll just have to enjoy watching the bidding, rather than participating, and be happy that Bernie's in good shape for keeping the website going I wonder if "linksmusic" is a board member?

stringer Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 I'll admit it, I'm Linksmusic. That's my store's name (linksmusic.net). Mostly just having fun. Love to have the lyrics, but I bidded it up to over 600.00, that's getting close to my max. It's early, and I'll probably get outbidded on most things. If I'm lucky, maybe I'll get a few things. Just glad to help support the site! Stringer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
