To be fair until they end it does not mean a lot. If I wanted the murex I would not have shown my hand bidding. I might have dropped a bid on the cheap one in the hope it might put others off.....

sardine Member Messages 3,553 Location Buckinghamshire Jan 31, 2016 #7 Starting bid of £10 means nothing, it could start at 99p, there might be a reserve on it of 100 ? I would have kept stum about it and kept my eye on it personally.

The old murexs are good but very hungry on the mains. A 2.5 will be the limit Id guess unless you start with a heavier supply.
