And the winner of Auction Contest #220 is Dennis Markham who with the 9th entry into the contest offered the winning guess of $248.00 to give him his 10th auction contest win! So, a big congratulations go out to Dennis Markham for another win in the CRPF Auction Contests and for moving up one rung in the Contest Standings.

Well, it seems h***m ( 1375 )'s first and only bid of the auction, a last second snipe placed 5 seconds before the auction ended, beat out two other snipes placed 3 and 4 seconds before it ended to take the phone home for a lower than expected $240.49, expected when reviewing forum member guesses. The phone was listed at $9.99 and unlike most eBay auctions, saw the price rise slowly but steadily every day of the auction. Within the last 15  minutes, it more than doubled in price. I hope the seller was sitting down. The auction saw 8 bidders placing 16 bids.

Thanks again to all who played. As always, there is only one way to get on the winner's board or move up a rung - you have to play to win.
