Good one! Poor Ron and Roy had to wait a long time for me before they got to sell anything!
Thanks Chaskey . . . as long as Ron & Roy got paid in the end - they'll be okay.
Good Job! Really quite fun!
Thank you angeleyes. This is my first teaser - I didn't know if anyone would like it.

Thank you Angel3000, please don't be . You've made my night!

Wow .. teaser number one and a finely crafted submission it is! A great example of using what you know best in your teasers! You should move your business out here to Arizona. Home prices have soared and houses are selling fast .. most on the same day they are listed! Super logic grid!
You're too kind, Zona. I'll be thinking about that hot real estate market this winter when I'm driving in 2 feet of snow!
good one! it was fun!!
I liked it. I thought it was fun and well- written. It was pretty easy, but my first one will be pretty easy I think. (it's in the queue)
Thanks gumdrop – glad you enjoyed it! Good luck Mejoza on your first teaser. I'm looking forward to reading it. Thanks for the positive feedback!
Great teaser!
Thank you, froggy. Glad you enjoyed it. Eventually, I'll submit more (I hope )
This is a great teaser. Not too easy for a first teaser either. Great job!
Thanks Kellyc!
Enjoyed it very much!

Good job! And your first, too! I really enjoyed this one. Not too hard, or too easy. Just wanted to add that clue #6 wasn't necessary but hey, it doesn't really matter does it?
dddlite - GREAT brain teaser.
