Daryl 0 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I wonder where this came from? Will be a MASSIVE auction! Wonder if I can organise a trip to Sydney in Sept :-) Link to post Share on other sites
Amy S 0 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Wow aren't they fantastic?!! Link to post Share on other sites
JeffL 0 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Mark has advised that the reason relates to spending more time with the family and growing work commitments. Ours is a time consuming hobby. He has rightfully earned his status as a legend. Nice bloke too. I expect the Auction to be BIG. Good luck to him. Link to post Share on other sites
Taboo 0 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I really like his birds but I have never been able to win the bidding at the auctions. As they sell for big dollars, as you would expect from a champion breeder. I'm sure this auction will be HUGE! Link to post Share on other sites
splat 0 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 That is a surprise but family and work comes first. He has stunning birds. Link to post Share on other sites

macka 0 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Well I guess if he is selling out,he wont be bidding on his own birds,If he dose, buyer beware. Link to post Share on other sites
PJI 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Well I guess if he is selling out,he wont be bidding on his own birds,If he dose, buyer beware. Considering the quality of Marks birds,i don't think he has to. Link to post Share on other sites
splat 0 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 I am guessing they will go for a fortune. Link to post Share on other sites
fordmob 0 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Anyone hazard a guess what the average might be, does anyone have any idea of the amount of birds he keeps? I am seriously thinking about making the 10 hour trek up the Hume. I have been out of the game for a few years and promised myself that if I got back it I would use his birds as my foundation. I would probably have to get some cages, and maybe an aviary first Link to post Share on other sites
**KAZ** 0 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 It would be unusual to get a bird of marks for $400.............an average would be $1,000 upwards. Link to post Share on other sites
