Well, I had planned on auctioning a "goldie" and silver half, but thinking the market is not that strong. Too many people trying to resell these days means I am putting my coins away for a while.

That's a pair I would bid seriously on... but like you say, locking them in the closet for a while and waiting for the market to thin out and pick back up might be a wise move.

I think the issue is that Blazed try to sell them as a package which cut down on his prospective market.
People like me wanted one of the coins and didn't want to deal with buying both, just to resell one.

Strangely, most want the Gold B version, even though I believe less of the straight silver exist. Meh.
I ended up getting the coin I wanted from a guy locally. So, I saved time not having to sell off the second one; however, I would have just kept it instead of dealing with selling it.

Winner got a nice/fair deal.

I'll agree with this, I didn't go higher because I only wanted the gold-B. Would have just resold/re-auctioned the all-silver coin. IMO, very good deal for the buyer.

And supposedly there's 1300 all-silvers and 483 goldies out there, so the goldie is a fair bit rarer. (http://www.spotcoins.com/bitcoin/casascius)

Under 5 is a steal...

Not if that's where the market settles.

Just because others are asking more for these coins doesn't mean the market is willing to bear it. This auction shows clearly that those asking BTC3 for these coins may be asking too much!

Congrats to the winner(s)!

You can not judge market price from 1 auction. Also the forum was down for several hours and came online 30 minutes before auction ended.

The forum downtime prevented me from bidding. These were under market, IMO, at 5 BTC. I would have gone to 5.5 myself.

I will be adding a rule that when we have forum downtime the equivalent is added to the auction timer.

I missed another one dammit. I need to write these end dates all over my wall so I don't forget again.

Inside of your eyelids, so if you are napping you can still see when it ends... Cheesy

You don't need to feel like an ass.

Issue is someone is promissing me one, but I think he is watching this auction to decide if he wants to let it go to me for the price he said.
So, it's why I said 5 was my max even the pair are worth more.

Also, quite honestly, I need to recheck my collection which are locked up right now. Forgot this auction ended today. Damn server time messed me up.
