        Wow! Congrats, Frank!
        It is a nice Christmas present!
        It seems I missed all the fun watching the bids, and I was away for just a bit.
        Is it one of the most desired figs now?

          Congratulations Frank, you are a long time and well respected member of the forums and I too have received some of your cuttings.
          I have been following eBay, I have sold on eBay and I have commented on "hot figs" on eBay for a number of years now.
          This is a real shocker !!

            It means there are people out there who really still want this fig!
            For a bargain of $800 I can fly to Italy and get one for you
