That is what I did...I like the "best offers"

OK, how do you get the best offers? Inquiring minds want to know.

Look for eBay auctions that have a "best offer" option. Only on some Buy It Now Auctions, and only some sellers utilize the feature, but can get some good deals

Ahh, thanks

I went back and looked and I actually got the plant for 15.00 in "Best Offer"

Well, I tried posting a picture of the 2 bloom spikes and the one nub that is potentially a bloom spike but I'm still having issues with the pictures. It says it is there, but I don't see any images. Hopefully in the next few days it will appear as it did last time and I'll post it.

And the pic magically appeared again!

I apologize in advance for the low quality of the picture!

You can clearly (relatively speaking) see the two flower spikes, and if you look closely just below the root on the left side you will see a little nub. Too early to tell if it's a root or flower spike.

That nubbin is in the right location for a bud, so that's my vote. Not sure though

[Zoi2]

They do look like buds, how exciting!!
I got mine Thursday and am not impressed with the plant or the TC. Mine was flat like a pancake with a couple of roots potted in tree fern fiber (I think). Today a couple of the leaves are spreading out but it is not as nicely formed as everyone elses. I don't believe I will order from that company again. I'll post pictures pretty soon.
