Selling my collection
Hi everyone, just wanting to let the people in the Adelaide area know that I'm relocating to the UK in a few months time. If anyone is interested in purchasing any of my trees, please pm me for my phone no. to arrange a time to come around and have a squizz. I'll also put some on ausbonsai.
Cheers PeterB

Re: Selling my collection
Hi Ken, we're moving permanently as the missus wants to be closer to her family. I would like to start up again that side but it won't be straight away. Thanks I would like to put up some of my trees. I have a very large juniper in training that would be very good as a demonstrators tree for a high end demonstrator. I'm able to get this tree to the Melbourne area. Have to say I'm finding this process very stressful, it's like I'm getting rid of a part of myself
Cheers PeterB

Re: Selling my collection
Thanks Mel, I'm asking whether I can keep in contact with the new owners. Beano bought 2 and I'm hoping she'll keep me updated. She's been kind enough to keep me updated on others that have gone to her. I'm finding it hard to part with them
Cheers PeterB

Re: Selling my collection
Hi everyone
Well, they're all pretty much gone. It's been a hard journey
but I've been very pleased that all my trees have gone to really nice people.
Almost all of them have promised to keep in contact, mostly on the ausbonsai website. So I'd like to say thanks to ausbonsai for being an awesome platform
