Hi .... and
... welcome to my ME page. Mostly this is to update you on my eBay contests and puzzles.

WHICH ... are not relevant right now because I don't have anything listed. BUT ... I plan to in a month or so, so check back. THANKS for looking !!!

Find either the puzzle/contest number below or the eBay item number below. Also cherry lollipops, which are VERY important.
(rev. # 25; Apr 21, 2004)

Please enter contests for each item separately in an E to me for each. Please do not combine entries. NOTE!! NOTE!! You do NOT have to enter ANY of these contests in order to bid. You can bid WITHOUT entering any of these contests.
The contest for the $20.00 bills (US Currency - Contests 16, 14, and 11g; see below) is LIMITED to ONE winner per person per listed eBay item. You may enter
as many times as you like, but you can
win
only once. Total cash outlay by me is limited to three winners per listed eBay item. Soooo ... get here FAST !!!
You can see the current list of contest winners - later on toward the bottom of this page. CHECK 'EM OUT !! If you have current or recent transactions with these members - or if they have a ME page with Eddress - you can E them (through eBay's "find members" utility) and verify the validity of their wins. These are NOT scams. I'm just givin' stuff away or giving people a break on bids or shipping.

ELF CONTEST/PUZZLE ( #19 )

This is Elf Contest/Puzzle # 19 - and will run in conjunction with one or more of my items to be listed.

Find the Yul Brynner connection to my 'Best Entry Rule' (on my ME page), answer the question, and, if you are the top bidder I'll send you this item FREE of charge AND I'll pay the shipping. Lemme say that AGAIN; you get this item delivered to your door at

cost of any kind; zip, zed, zingle.

Here's how to do it:

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ENTER THE CONTEST IN ORDER TO BID. You can bid in your ordinary, common, boring eBay way. But you'll miss a better deal !!

ELF CONTEST/PUZZLE ( #15 )

This is Elf Contest/Puzzle 15 - and will run in conjunction with one or more of my items to be listed. To enter this contest you need to take a look at the corrupted "quote of the month" that ends this page (below - right before my feedback credits). Here's what to do:

(01) Find the quote at the bottom of this page. Identify the movie from whence it came.

(02) Provide the correct quote.

(03) Name the actor who spoke those immortal words.

(04) Send the above ( 01, 02, 03) to me in an E showing ALSO the item number and title of the item for which you are entering this contest.

(05) Bid on the item (if you have not already).

Armed with this information you can now respond to any of my listings that links to this contest/puzzle ( 15 ). You could win FREE shipping of the item, or one-half off shipping, or one-fourth off shipping, OR ... golly gee whiz ... even WIN the ENTIRE listed item for FREE. NO JOKE !! You MUST have this contest/puzzle number ( 15 ) in your E or snail to me, else I won't record it.

My eBay moniker is BrownElf1000. Gimme a E if you have ANY Q's about ANYTHING. Also a lollipop via snail would be nice but is NOT required. If you do send me a lolli, though, it might provide me sufficient motivation to give you some help and hints about the contest, but it MUST MUST be cherry !!

NOTE:

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ENTER THE CONTEST IN ORDER TO BID. You can bid in your ordinary, common, boring eBay way. But you'll miss a better deal !!

ELF CONTEST/PUZZLE ( #14 )

This is Elf Contest/Puzzle 14 - and will run in conjunction with one or more of my items to be listed for sale on eBay. Here's what to do:

(01) Send me an E-mail with your THREE worst puns included.

(02) This will register you for the contest.

(03) Then bid.

(04) If yours is the TOP (winning) bid I will send you the item FREE. You pay the shipping. If you feel you've been screwed because "FREE" should include shipping also, then we'll negotiate the shipping.

There will also be a WORST "worst-pun" contest at the conclusion of the run (listing) of this item. The winner of the WORST "worst-pun" contest will be sent a 20.00 bill (REAL US currency) and will have your "WORST" pun listed in the color CHERRY (for the lollipops) in my "11,000 Lousy Puns (and counting)" book which, by the way, is also now running as a listed item.

Also, if you want, send me a cherry lollipop via snailer PRIOR to the conclusion of the run on this item. It will probably put me in such good spirits that I would LOAN you a few puns (for you to enter) that I have that are not yet in the book.

NOTE:

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ENTER THE CONTEST IN ORDER TO BID. You can bid in your ordinary, common, boring eBay way. But you'll miss a better deal !!

ELF CONTEST/PUZZLE ( #13 )

This is Elf Contest/Puzzle 13 - and will run in conjunction with one or more of my items to be listed for sale on eBay. Here's what to do:

(01) Cruise around my other listings. There is a key word and color in each one. Send me an E with the key word and color from THREE of my other listings. You MUST give me the item #'s of the listings.

(02) This will register you for the contest.

(03) Then bid.

(04) If yours is the TOP bid I will send you the item FREE. You pay the shipping. If you wanna STILL squawk about what is the notion and definition of "free", we'll negotiate the shipping.

Get my other listings by hitting on "view seller's other items" to the right on the item page. Also, if you want, send me a cherry lollipop via snailer PRIOR to the conclusion of the run and I'll be in a MUCH better mood to deal on shipping.

NOTE:

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ENTER THE CONTEST IN ORDER TO BID. You can bid in your ordinary, common, boring eBay way. But you'll miss a better deal !!

ELF CONTEST/PUZZLE ( #12 )

This contest is the same as contest #13 (above) EXCEPT:

(01) Find my favorite female actor (her name is in one of my listings or is on this page) and send her to me in an E. (well, don't actually send HER - although that would be nice - just her name will do.) Do this instead of the three secret words, colors.

(02) You get HALF-off your bid price instead of FREE.

But we STILL negotiate about the shipping. A Cherry lollipop in the mail to me would help. E me to find out why.

NOTE:

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ENTER THE CONTEST IN ORDER TO BID. You can bid in your ordinary, common, boring eBay way. But you'll miss a better deal !!

ELF CONTEST/PUZZLE ( #11 )

This is Elf Contest/Puzzle 11 - and will run in conjunction with one or more of my items to be listed for sale on eBay. To enter this contest you need to find and send me in an E the names of THREE winners of my contests. Look for them either on items I am currently offering for sale or on my ME page. I will then "register" your entry as qualified for one of the below:

CONTEST 11a: One fourth off shipping, or
CONTEST 11b: One half off shipping, or
CONTEST 11c: FREE shipping, or
CONTEST 11d: Buy this item for ONE-HALF your bid price *, or
CONTEST 11e: Buy this item for ONE-FOURTH your bid price **, or
CONTEST 11f: Bid-And-Win; then get item FREE incl FREE shipping ***, or
CONTEST 11g: Get a crisp, new 20.00 bill (US) in the mail from me (the new,
weird-lookin' one) just simply because you took the time and interest
to look at my stuff and bid.

*,**,***. Here's how it works. You bid and win. Then, if you have entered this contest (11d,11e, or 11f) BEFORE the expiration of the item run, then you will get the item for one-half or one-fourth of your bid price ... or you get it FREE. No strings. No joke.

Read what I've got up for sale. Read the descriptions. And some of them will indicate which of the above contests are associated with that item.

My eBay moniker is BrownElf1000. Gimme a E if you have ANY Q's about ANYTHING. Also a lollipop via snail would be nice but is NOT required. IF, however, you send me one, it usually puts me in a MUCH better mood in getting you registered for the contests and giving you any other help or hints, etc., that you might need. If you DO send me a lolli, though, it MUST MUST be cherry !!

NOTE:

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ENTER THE CONTEST IN ORDER TO BID. You can bid in your ordinary, common, boring eBay way. But you'll miss a better deal !!

If you posilutely and absotively HAVE to know what contest/puzzles #'s 00 (yep, just like MAD mag we had a "00") through 10 were all about then send me TWO cherry pops and I'll send the descriptions along to you. Maybe.

I am in the process of "cleaning out the attics" and am finding ALL SORTS of bizarre stuff. I try to sell some of it. Some of it I'll give away to eBay members lucky enough to win one of my contests. Information on the contests other than what is in the listed item descriptions will be here. E me if you want more info ... or just to chat. Now ... I've also added a new GUARANTEED-WINNER 'best entry' rule; that even if there IS NO clear "first-place" winner, a winner will be declared based on the 'best' of the extant entries.

THE 'BEST ENTRY' RULE DOES NOT APPLY TO ITEMS WITH A RESERVE WHERE THE RESERVE WAS NOT MET AND DOES NOT APPLY TO COMPETITIVE RIDDLES UNLESS, OF COURSE, YOU MEET THE RESERVE AND/OR WIN THE COMPETITION. THEN IT DOES APPLY.

(the above is the infamous "small print". That's why I put it in BOLD RED CAPS. Wasn't that decent of me?)
THEREFORE (and forthwith)!!!!!!! .... "so it is written, so let it be done" (E me the name of the movie with Yul Brynner that contained this quote and I'll apply the 'Best Entry" rule to YOUR bid; any bid, any time, any where !!
