Tinley show Auction wins

[bekers71]

This is going to be a few post. So hang on to those comments til I'm done please.

We went to the auction Saturday evening at the Tinley Park show and it was a blast. We had picked out a couple things we wanted to bid on but we were out bid, of course. LOL All is good though because I am excited with what I did win. And broke.

There are 5 auctions I won but I'm only posting 4 of them. The one I'm not posting was just some frog moss, bedding and a poison dart frog I traded later for other things.

AUCTION #1

18x18x18 Viv complete with eco earth, plants, water ball things, light fixture and a mushroom ledge.







This is my starting set up for the animals that are going to live in it. I'm not quit done yet. Some plants are real and some are fake.



Next one is coming up.......

-NICE-
Wasn't it insanely expensive though? In total... I wouldn't want to -dream- how much it would have cost here...
(easily 600-700$ for each of the sets you showed, probably a deal more)

Thanks! Actually it was pretty good. My total auctions came to $565. We went prepared for this trip though. My husband had planned it as a Valentines gift to me so he held back some cash.

Holy cannoli! What kick butt awesome wins! And definitely the kind of V-Day gift I would want. Congratulations! Your Cresties look so at home in the new vivs! (I'm super jealous, btw!)

Thank you! The cresties were happy to have more climbing and hiding spots that for sure.
