Hello everyone,
I am posting a notice for a silent auction that will be held on March 25, in
the Shire of StarLeaf Gate during our event. I have obtained a second copy of
Flower & Rosenbaum's translation of Apicius and am unable to decide on one
person to give it to. As such, I am hoping to raise some funds for a Cook's
Guild that I started.
I know there are many people interested in this copy as it is considered to
be the best English translation of Apicius and it is out of print. I will be
cross posting this message to the Apicius at onelist, as there are individuals
there who would be equally interested.
The book is in very good condition, it has the original jacket cover, no
marks, no ripped pages, just some slight yellowing on the edges.
I paid $45 U.S. for my first copy so I will begin the auction at a base price
matching that (I recall people finding it at $90, so this does not seem
unreasonable). If you are interested in the book, I will accept bids from the
list, but the shipping cost must be added to the amount upon issuing payment
for it.
I will accept bids up to March 25th at 7 am EST, enough to allow me to get
ready to cook my feast. The bids will be kept confidential, and will be
announced at the event. I will contact the person with the highest bid and
request at that time that they send me a money order (cashing non Canadian
cheques is very expensive) for the bid plus the shipping costs (as determined
by Canada Post or your choice of delivery service). If the money order does
not arrive within 1 week, I will then contact the next highest bid.
I hope this is found to be a fair method. Thank you for your time in reading
this message.
Sincerely,
Hauviette d'Anjou
