Followup on the BrilliantPhoto auction

Well, since I posted about the BrilliantPhoto auction on eBay, I guess I need to post a followup.  The problem is that there isn't much to say.

I guess I'd have to say that this eBay auction was not successful.  Jim Lamb (the seller) killed the auction early, apparently because he was in the process of working out a deal with somebody separate from the eBay auction. 

A number of people were very disappointed about this.  I don't blame them -- I was disappointed too.  As I said in my first post, the cool thing about this was the ability to watch.  Now the deal is going to happen behind closed doors, which, of course, is the way this kind of thing usually gets done.

I'm not saying I blame Jim for doing what make sense for him.  I'm just saying his sale isn't interesting anymore.  Move along folks, nothing to see here...  :-)
