I think we need to popularize a new acronym IGNSITG just for web auction referrals:

"I got no skin in the game"

I am sure that our friends like Mike Zeleny, DavidJay Uden, Sheepherder and Ithacaartist would get a lot of use out of it!

Starting at $3500, IWIHSITG (I wish I had skin in the game...)

Fascinating!

...and apparently as controversial as the so-called Russian contract Lugers.

I don't have the Sturgess & Goetz book; is this an actual/factual variation???

Is anybody here going to bid on it???

I'd like to know more...Has this been posted/discussed on Jan Still's board???

I would love to know Albert's views on this...

I gotta go check...

I posted a thread over on Jan Still's board; Pete linked an excellent discussion on Lithuanian Lugers...
