Just a reminder to all those partaking in the fun starting tomorrow...please read the instructions in the auction section. Only chat on the chatting thread and very important...........The person who puts on an item for actioning has to pay the postage to send it out to the winning bidder and the winning bidder must also add the cost opf the postage onto the amount they have bid......the cost of postage must be included in the post putting the item into the auction

How to post an item into the auction  and instructions how to do every thing are all in the Auction section on Purrs.

Instructions how and when to send items out at the end of the auction and where to pay money will all be posted at the close of the auction.

Good luck all....the countdown carries on tick tock tick tick tock ................... :rofl: :rofl:
