Plug case benefit auction for Habs family

I am auctioning off this plug display case with all the proceeds to go to John's family. The man meant a lot to me and he always was one of the first to donate to a cause and I'd like to give back something.
The case is 23" x 35" and deep enough for very large plugs, it is made of Spainish cedar and has a glass lid that is lockable. It has a hanger to hang on the wall. These can retail for much more than $350.00 for a case this size just for a little perspective. The plugs in the picture do NOT come with the case, however I can include a used Habs needlefish plug(I don't have any new ones)if it goes above $400.
The auction can run untill next Sunday night at 8:00 PM
Any and all bids are appreciated.
So how about we start off at $100.00

Thanks,
Bruce May

this auction ends on Sunday Jules
you are presently the high bidder , yes

I think Zacs was just bumping up the thread to see if there may be more interest that's all.

I hope you win it also Jules, you may have seen 2 of them at the MSBA plugnight in August.

the pictures don't really do this case justice
you would be impressed by the beauty of this wood.

Spainish cedar is the same wood used in humidors for fine cigars.
The backing is homosote covered in fabric so the plugs can be attached with T-pins easily.

I'm in for $400.00

1 @ 32 Pledge. Our beloved Striped Bass are in trouble AGAIN.

I fished through the lean years and don't want to live through another collapse of the stock.

2 fish @ 28" is ridiculous.
