Have fun girls and be careful what you buy, do your homework first. What I learnt is go around and pick out the best birds with the best features then mark them off my cataloge because they will be the ones that they all go for like $900 plus each. Specially if you are after a I Hunter , P Thurn , A Rowe, Sheppard & Flanagan even a Loats bird they all went for big money at the Geelong Auction, BUt if you have that mucg to spent go for it Link to comment

I've never been to a budgie auction and thought it would be a good experience but am not a member of any club... do I just put N/A in that column?? Link to comment

It was great! I really enjoyed the day. I've gotta say I am very tired now but it was great just gong to observe. I didn't buy anything, I'd made that decision before I went I just wanted to go and observe today... But for anyone that is interested... After scratchings there were 242 birds up for Auction, the most paid was $880 and the minimum paid was $20. The average price worked out to be around $100. Watson Birds seemed to be the more popular birds to buy... I went through in the beginning and had a look at the birds, the ones I thought would do well did, apart from a couple which fetched around $40... All in all it was a really fun day! Link to comment

I was the bloke in the Hawks top and the brown shorts, my wife and son came in after the second break but then she took him to the library cos he wanted to touch all "Daddies Birdies". Do you remember what your bidding number was? What birds did you guys get? There were a couple that I liked the look of went for 50 bucks other than that I found out I have very expensive taste when it comes to birds The crests fetched a good price...

Yeah I was the scary woman in the hot pink top, who thought your little boy was lost. And Snowy I'm sorry you must have come to the food counter at the wrong time, because AV and myself were behind the food counter quite a bit today and obvious AV would know who she is, and I certainly would realise who'd you meant, but if you happen to have asked Ron or Sylvia they wouldn't have, so just bad luck. It disappointing because it great to put faces to some of the members of this forum. Anyway I had a great day, pick up 7 birds and can wait till is time to pair up. I've got about 65 all up now, so more than enough to choose from. Link to comment
