Excon the Hutt
Veteran Besalisk
Mos Eisley, Tatooine.
The city of Mos Eisley's sandy floor felt burning hot underneath Excon... most likely since Tatooine's twin suns have been glaring down at it for the last six hours or so. Even in the irritating sunny weather, Excon the Hutt was in a rather good mood. He was holding an auction, and Mos Eisley probably was one of the best cities to hold one, at that. Smugglers, pilots, mercenaries, and pirates roamed the sandy city of Tatooine, and he knew that many would show up to the Tatooine's Hutt crime lord's auction.
Excon the Hutt had about half a dozen well trained personal guards escorting him, as well as several well paid mercenaries that would be guarding his auction items. He and his group of six guards made their way into the rather crowded Mos Eisley square where his auction would take place. Suprinsingly, talking ceased almost immiediately as the crowd so the appearence of Tatooine's crime lord.
"Welcome ladies and gentlemen, to my auction! I've got a lot of items to sell in this auction, so lets not waste our time! Lets get bidding!"
Although Excon was speaking in Huttese, the translator droid next to him quickly translated his words to Galactic Standard. After he spoke, Excon waved his arm, and one of his guards brought forth a newly painted and good looking speeder.
"This, my friends, is a BARC speeder, manufactured a long time ago by the Aratech Repulsor Company! This particular model, believe it or not, was in fact used by the Grand Army of the Galactic Republic centuries ago! While some of you may view this as an item with historical value, I'll assure that it is in a very good condition! Probably good to use for next several decades-"
"-I'll buy it for 9,000 credits!" suddenly shouted someone from the crowd. And with that, the crowd started bidding, going higher and higher. "Well... anyone wants to bet above 16,000 credits?!" boomed Excon in his loud voice, delighted by the high price, and even more delighted to know that the price would keep on going up.
