Lot's of updates to the Zone if you haven't looked at the rest of the site lately. The Auctions are back, New News updates, and more.
The auction side of the site had been dormant, but it is now officially re-launched. We completely re-did the software for the auctions. Bidding now runs eBay-style, so you can enter the most you are willing to pay and the system bids on your behalf up to that figure rather than making you sit and watch the clock. All members of the forums can bid. We are adding a bunch of cool items with very low minimum bids and filling them out of Legacy Diecast to get it going strong again. 3 new sellers signed up yesterday!
Please also check out the new Member Dues page. An homage to all of you and our Hall of Famers at the bottom. https://diecast.org/member-dues/ Lot's of new members are signing up every day, but they are not posting on the Forums. I am not sure why. I guess they are just enjoying reading all of the topics and images you all post. Please give them an extra friendly welcome them when they do post. I know you all will.

Great to see the updates on both the auctions and membership page. Only question how can we find out when the last time we paid so we know when another years payment is due?

@carsman1958 We will get an email out. We collected the first years $25.00 dues in July and August of 2025. So, most existing members can pay dues for 2026 by the end of this year. A few members have already sent in their dues for 2026.
