"Forty galleons from the pretty lady with Paddle 27." He said and smiled. "Come now ladies, red is the color of passion!"

"Merlin's beard! 60 Galleons, 60 galleons for the young lady with paddle 38." Ian Amoroso said and looked to the crowd. "Red... the color of love. Do I hear 65 Galleons?"

His momma wants that purse, lady.
"Seventy galleons from the boy with paddle three!" he said and then looked at the girl. "Do I hear eighty?"

"Paddle 38 bids 80 galleons!!"
"Eighty galleons! This is a proper bidding war!" Ian said getting excited. "Anyone want to swoop in and take it? I have yet to hear ninety..."

"And there it is..." he said nodding, "This is for such a good cause. Ninety Galleons going once... going twice..."

Plus she had loads of birthday money that her family had given her in advance for her 17th birthday, so she decided that she might as well put it to good use.
"Merlin's Wallet Child! ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE GALLEONS." he said and looked around, "105 going once..." He looked at the boy and the President... "Going twice." Nothing?

Cassandra braved the sullen look from her youngest child.

"GONE! To the young lady with Paddle 38." Ian leaned over the podium and said "Thank you for your bidding." Now moving on.

"Next item up for bid, a pair of 18 karat gold quartz drop earrings and a vintage gold Chanel charm bracelet, donated by our own Annie Truebridge. These earrings with three faceted iridescent rutilated quartz stones are for pierced ears... they retail for 260 galleons. Let's start the bidding at..." He said and thought a moment. "Do I hear 230?"
