Topic: AUCTION - 8 rolls of new 0.5BTC Casascius Coins - page 10. (Read 11715 times)

casascius could you track the bids for each roll somehow in OP. It's hard to get an overview.

I'll bid 55 for any two rolls.

I bid 27.8 for any one roll.

27.8 for 5 or 6

27.6 for 1 roll (as long as the BTC price stays under $200)

My bid does not take into consideration that 1 or 2 rolls (5 and 6) were bid up to 27 BTC already.

Therefore, I'd like to revise my bid to 27.5 BTC per roll, for all 8 rolls.

My apologies for the confusion.

Bid of 26.5 BTC per roll for all 8 rolls.

212 BTC total bid.

I was invited to this auction via email.

Just for clarity:


I will interpret "each" (as the author likely intended) to mean a separate 26 BTC bid for all 8 rolls.


Additional bids must be at least the minimum increment of 0.1 BTC above the prior competing bid to be valid.

Making one minor change:  Any bid that comes 15 minutes or less after a previous valid bid shall be considered valid.  This will extend the auction so long as there is bidding.

I bid 26 BTC for any one roll.

I only want one roll though

27 for roll 5 or 6

i'd start at 26 each for all 8

double check your signature? here's what i'm getting. typically it seems to be the forum newlines that cause this

ok!

I bid 26 BTC for any one roll. 

If this auction works successfully, then I will also start auctioning the remainder of my initial batch, as well as specific slots for future production.

For example, I might auction a roll in the future: Roll #X: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins, with address prefix 125, to be shipped as soon as they are assembled.

The purpose for doing this will be to ensure that there's a decent amount of supply available for bidding.  Ideally, they'll be shipped out the same day they are made.

April 6, 2013: Auction for 8 rolls of fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins.

See my blog, http://casascius.wordpress.com

Am having problems with BitMit, thought I would try an auction here.

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 rolls 1, 2, 3, or 4."  If your bid wins and any of your chosen those four rolls is
available, you will win one of them.  You will not get to choose which roll you get.  If none of those
four rolls is available at the point your bid is processed, it will be skipped.

3. "I bid 26 BTC for roll 1."  You will either win roll 1 for 26 BTC, or you won't.

Roll #8: Fifty 0.5 BTC Casascius Coins made April 6, 2013, with address prefix 124

Auction ends April 10, 2013, 23:59 UTC.

After auction end, bids will be evaluated from highest to lowest.

I reserve the right to cancel the auction if necessary for reasonable cause.  If I do so, all bids are
cancelled.  I'm reserving this right simply because this is the first time I've done an auction like this,
and want an escape hatch just in case I've missed something critical, like leaving a way for more than
one person to be deemed the winner of the same roll of coins or something.
