Still ironing out a few last minute items so we can update the lots.

ALSO: I have had several requests for additions to lots. That's all fine except it would be really nice to know what they are ahead of time, so If you are planning an add on please let me know.

Also I have several questions about just donating money or if you have to buy a lot. ABSOLUTELY NOT. Donate away. Post Here, post during the auction, what ever you wish.

We have an awesome crew for both Auctions so lets have some fun

Oh Ian and Stuart Patton wanted me to add:
As Stuart and I don’t need any seeds we will be putting in $100 for Ken
If anyone else dose not need seeds please feel free to add to the pot.
If your short of Dosh have a look down the back of your sofa it’s all for a great cause.

One more thing
Paypal is fine
Cheques are fine
Cash is fine if you can hand deliver it to Ken
All the particulars will be sent to all auction winners.

Clarifying the add on
I didn't mean to add on a lot I meant to add to an existing lot

Example Dan's world record tomato lot 18.
Tim would like to add: Dunkels Tomato Turbo Competition Blend to each of the Dan's lots.
So we will make the change for Lot 18

Keep asking questions via email or post here

So I was just asked how soon can I get my seeds if I win.
Well here is the best answer I can give you.
As soon as you win the lot, email me, at the end of the auction I will respond as quick as I can to each one. By Monday night is the plan. I will send you the payment options and you then pay Ken. PLEASE understand Ken has a full time job and a family so if it takes a few days to get confirmation back from Ken. You need to live with it.
Once I get confirmation from Ken, I will get ahold of the seed owner and instruct them to send your seeds. Again we are dealing with things like Life, Family and jobs. As soon as they can, the seeds will be sent.
Also please note I am going to the GPC convention and will be leaving Thursday Morning and returning on Monday, so I will not be able to do much from there, Ken and a lot of the donators will also be there, so we will loose a good part of a week.
So bottom line, We will do the best we can, but if you absolutely, positively need the seed by a certain time, please understand that may not happen.
This auction is for Ken and Big Pumpkins, that in itself should be the priority
