Just want to clarify one thing, and perhaps others can help: I rephrase the "maximum bid" text to be as follows:
Unlike my last auction, the price you are bidding is your MAXIMUM bid. The price the highest
bidder will actually pay is the second highest bid plus the minimum bid increment (0.1 BTC), plus
shipping. All other bidders will pay their actual bid plus shipping.
In other words, using the 2nd highest bid + 0.1 will only apply to the highest bidder. The second and other bidders will pay their actual bid. Does this seem fair or is there anything I've missed? Am just trying to solve inefficiencies observed in the last auction.

April 13, 2013: Auction for 10 rolls of fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins.
See my blog, http://casascius.wordpress.com
Minimum bid: face value (50 * 0.5BTC = 25 BTC per roll). Please bid in 0.1 BTC increments.
Shipping cost is a flat $35 for US Registered Mail, $50 for international Registered Mail,
regardless of the number of rolls won.
Unless otherwise specified, you are bidding for ONE of the eight rolls. You can bid in any of
the following ways:
1. "I bid 26 BTC for any available roll". If your bid wins, you'll win one roll. You will not get
to choose which roll you get.
2. "I bid 26 BTC for roll 125-A." You will either win roll 125-A for 26 BTC, or you won't.
If you post more than once with a bid that exceeds your prior bid, I will probably deem your
new bid as a replacement of your old bid. Please be clear, preferably repeat all of your active
bids with each subsequent bidding post.
Unlike my last auction, the price you are bidding is your MAXIMUM bid. The price you will
actually pay is the second highest bid plus the minimum bid increment (0.1 BTC), plus shipping.
The end time of this auction is April 14, 22:00 UTC forum time (approx. 24 hours from now),
but any valid bid will extend the auction to 2 minutes past the timestamp of the post containing
the bid.
Roll 125-A: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 125
Roll 125-B: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 125
Roll 125-C: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 125
Roll 125-D: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 125
Roll 125-E: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 125*
Roll 126-A: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 126
Roll 126-B: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 126
Roll 126-C: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 126
Roll 126-D: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 126
Roll 126-E: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 13, 2013, with address prefix 126*
Note that A,B,C,D are not sequential: all of them are essentially random selections from the
200-300 coins that were made from each lot (max 300, actual production varies based on
mistakes, discards, etc.) Of all these coins, they are essentially identical, other than that the
125's were made just before the 126's were made.
Of rolls marked with *, I may use some coins from other lots in the event that the lot runs out
before I can get the full 50 coins from it.
I reserve the right to cancel the auction if necessary for reasonable cause, as an escape
hatch just in case I've missed something critical.
Secure payment addresses (if you win more than 1 roll, OK to combine into single address)

would like a different, non-published address, PGP signed of course).
