MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT :: Luthier's Auctions Up

Greetings.

I am **** VERY ***** excited to announce that Brock and I just launched the LUTHIERS AUCTIONS SITE. We have been working on this for quite some time, and while we are still getting our feet wet with this software it looks like everything is working properly and we can begin running auctions.


As an incentive to get everyone to use the software we are only charging .01 listing fees and .01 per optional item until the end of the year. We highly encourage everyone, sponsors, professional vendors, and individual luthiers to participate. Our hope is that this site will carry good, quality merchandise and not the junk that you find on eBay.   It is our goal to make this THE auction market for lutherie supplies.



Again, we are pretty new with the software and we are still working a few of the kinks out, so let us know (here) if you have problems.



Thanks,
Lance.

Hey Lance and Brock,

Cogratulations! This is awesome news. I can't wait until some things start to get listed. The interface looks very clean...although the Luthiers Auctions logo partially obscures two of the buttons.

Thank you for this, I'm sure it will become a huge hit!

Seems appropriate that the Zootman has the first item up for bidding.....

I know that we can get there from here, OLF to Luthier's auction, how bout a link from there to here Luthier's auction to OLF?

Er, actually, the link at the top of each page here does not get us there yet.

I'm sure you guys are working on it, no pressure really.

It's all good. Rod True38967.7108912037

Lance & Brock,

Excellent! I just went through the registration process and got to the Verification screen, it said you sent me an email, does it take some time to get it, I have not as of yet so I can't complete. I will check it again in an hour or so.

Thanks

Mike

Very cool Brock and Lance.
