Who got it?

So just wondering who the lucky bidder was who got the custom white 712M on ebay. Whoever it was, it looks like they got an awesome deal on an awesome truck.

What did it go for last I checked to day it was a little over 18k. Some one got a sweet pinz.

$22,200. Absolute steal for that pinz.

Actually, it was me! 
That's why I posed the question recently about the merits (or drawbacks) of a 712 VS a 710. I didn't hear anything bad from anyone so, when the white one came along, I made some calls to check on it and decided to step up to the plate so to speak. I'm pretty excited about it and now need to figure out logistics and timing to retrieve it.
Now yall can help me find a buyer for mine (#280391016665)!
Very best regards to all who weighed in and encouraged me to "go big or go home".

BTW, that truck is a heck of a buy for $22K. I was assuming it would go for at least $25K

David,
Just price your 710 so high that no one will buy it, tell the wife you truly tried to sell it but had no takers, and keep them both.

Bill,
You obviously don't know my wife. That white truck will stay parked in Arizona for the next 5 YEARS if my 710 doesn't go away. One Pinz at a time....that's what I was told!
It looks like a towing strap but it's really.a leash!

David,
I don't know her either. But, I will make the offer that: in the event you are unable to sell the 710, you may store the 712 up here in Wisconsin, indefinitely!
Just trying to help a fellow Pinz'er...

If you just want it gone I'll help, you can store it at my place in the Hill Country.
We will have to figure out how to cook the books.

David,
All I can say is that you're lucky our Sunday afternoon walk took longer than I thought it would. I was planning on bidding at the last minute when I got back, but by the time I sat down in front of the computer the auction had ended (1 minute ago!). Scott Ingham just built me a custom 710S, so I didn't really NEED another pinz, but I figured for that price I could hardly pass it up. So, congrats. That's going to be an awesome pinz. Brian Mason actually helped Scott with a lot of the work on my pinz and they really do a nice job, so I have no doubt that your pinz will be top-notch. You just got the deal of the century!

If timing and logistics are an issue,perhaps you could contact Man on the Mule,personal friend and he lives in Tucson. Between the 2 of us we could arrange storage until you satisfy
