Thanks to all who placed bids and PM'd with questions/concerns this week. If you have suggestions on how to enhance auction integrity in the collectibles subforum I recommend checking out the thread started by micgoossens: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/keep-the-beloved-collectibles-section-safe-5140603

Also remember to hash your final sale price predictions by May 15 @ 20:00 PST on Sat0shisGhost's thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/deadline-is-515-just-for-fun-how-much-will-the-times-03-jan-2009-sell-for-5140169

The auction runs for another eight days, get your bids in early and good luck!  Cheesy

Seeing that start price makes me really regret not picking up 2 of these papers when I had the chance. IIRC back then he was asking 1BTC each and I was like lolplz...

Yeah there were a bunch of them floating around.  If you want to get real crazy I remember an auction where someone won one for like .15btc ish when btc was around $200 lulz.

Edit: .26btc nubbins https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/the-times-03012009-727068

Edit #2: bitcoin was around $600 making that paper sold for around $150

AFAIK this is still the only verified “newspaper-only” sale. When I resold it, it was with a bundle of other rare goods, deliberately obscuring the price. The paper and a s2 0.5 silver would have collectively been valued at around 25btc to the buyer at the time. The other coins in the bundle were common and easily priced.

The guy from the times 2009 website still reaches out about once a year just to see if I still have any other copies stashed away. I don’t!

Winner: please take a high-resolution scan of the front page. I wish I had!

Terminated.
My initial minimum bid requirements of 40 and then 20 BTC were too much to ask of this forum, but I would hate for this auction to end on such an unsatisfactory note.
It isn't a high ask for the forum, it's a high ask for the item. Real genius you are indeed. Roll Eyes -100 merit, but unfortunately this option does not exist.

I cannot wait to see how high this goes.
Watching.
