Christmas surprise for the lady

[ironlord1963]

     Thought I would post this for a bit of fun, besides I think tales had a bit to do with this one.   Remember a while back I posted a what is it item, Right away Tales told us it was a Brandy Warmer.  Well before the lady knew what it was she did not like Brandy, Well after the Discovery she drinks a fair amount of warm brandy and like it.  Well she found a Brandy warmer on line she wanted but gave up on bidding, So I sneak in a put my own bid in.  Almost at the end and it looks like it may go into the $80.00,   What do you think, How far should I go?  and Thanks Tales for changing our little lives a bit

Looks neat, ironlord.  I see it is at $48 now with $14 shipping.  I have no idea what these go for but tales might know.  17 hours+ left.  Good luck!

Found one that has been sold before, but I don't subscribe, so can't see for how much

What a wonderful gift.  You guys make me want one (maybe two) of EVERYTHING these days!!  So pretty and graceful.  Is it heated with lamp oil?

Glad that I was able to have a hand in corrupting your lady with brandy Ironlord!  I LOVE the swan. I say "GO FOR IT IRONLORD!!!"

Add to your costs : one bottle of VSOP , ironlord1963 !

[talesofthesevenseas]

Looks like it is up to $59 with an hour and 51 minutes to go. I think you're gonna need Auction Sniper or you'll have to be very fast on the trigger to get this one Ironlord!

[talesofthesevenseas]

Auction ended at $75.74  Didja get it IL?

[marcylove]

I made pomegranate brandy once...this is sooo awesome!

[Oceans64]

We make blackberry brandy here every year....

IL???  Are we all the proud owner??  lol

[ironlord1963]

Nope did't get, me and someone slugged it out till the end.  My last bit was 46 pounds I think in the last minute, but the last second I was knock out  .   I have been looking hard to find another on line but to no luck.  Oh well guess she will get a GPS for her new car instead 

[talesofthesevenseas]

Awww darn it! Maybe one of us can help find one.

[ironlord1963]

I would love that if someone could find me one for sure.  I have been looking hard even been looking under cognac warmers tonight.  I sure one will come along soon, maybe in the thrift store for .99

I'll be poking around some stores in Seattle this afternoon so I'll keep an eye out....
