I was finally convniced to go after checking out the auction web site where they stated that Friday would be a "Preview" day with costumes and props on display - and people could ( Read more... )

That is totally awesome! What a great opportunity for you and the rest of the Colonial Fleet! That's the kind of opportunity that most people don't ever get! :D Can't wait to see the other photos!

I know, and to think I stumbled on it unknowingly! I'm soooo glad my husband brought our costumes down on Saturday. It was soooo difficult to convince him to come down. He was tired from a long week of work and therapy on his back. He wasn't looking forward to the 5.5 hour drive and getting up at 4:00am.

My husband and I were just going through photos from the auction on the RPF - you are so lucky to have been there! Some awesome photo opportunities there - looking forward to seeing more of your photos :)

Yeah - it was a lot of fun! I didn't realize the pictures were making their way over to RPF (I finally got registered there). I seemed to miss out on most of the fun photos for some reason. I believe TCF volunteers took their photo with "Kat" when we went out to lunch! Later on members were taking a lot of fun photos with the props but I just stopped by to watch every now and then and went back to asking to view costumes hidden in the back!

Oh, I have more pictures to post! Keep checking back, especially after the weekend. I've got pictures of costumes, a few more props that I tried to take pics of that I was surprised my husband hadn't :( He was only interested in the FTL key because he would have bid on it if it was affordable! Instead he wants to try go make one.

I just gave them a call. She said she can not ship to APO. To ship to the UK she wouldn't know the exact price until they packaged and weighted it... but a rough estimate for your 7 yards would be 15-25 dollars shipping fees. You'd have to pay import taxes and she has no way of knowing what that would be.
