I'm really upset about this, apparently Moderator "Grue" found my posts to be insubstantial and banned me for a period of 30 days from the forum. I was threatened if I used another account the ban would be worse and I don't want to do the trade unless an escrow is used so thus I have to close this auction for now. I messaged Grue asking him to reconsider, I'm not a spammer account, I get paid for only 50 posts a week but I post a lot more than that. Most of my posts are trying to help people or combat the scammers and spammers of the forum.

I am really disappointed by this outcome and I am banned from my account for 30 days. If this is the punishment for a first time offender I think its pretty harsh. From what I've seen most get a ban of a week or less. Anyways, really sad about all of this. Dunno if I'll be back in a month or not cause this really dampered my day, I really enjoy this forum.

Minimum increment for bids is 0.01 than the previous bid so unfortunately this bid is not accepted. I apologize for not posting that in the OP but had to set it after I realized I didn't which I did within an hour of posting the auction thread otherwise people would be betting a satoshi more, etc.

Current bid is still 0.22 and minimum next bid must be 0.23. If you're worried you'll forget about this auction, I plan on sending on a PM to everyone who has shown interest the day before it ends / day of.

Bump.

Current top bid is 0.22 BTC. Auction ends this sunday as described in the OP, any top escrow accepted and sniping is prevented as bids extend the auction 5 minutes if done in the last couple mins.

i think you made the auction too long

Why would an auction be too long?

someone could forget an auction is in play if it is too long.

Wanted it to be a week and end on a sunday. I'll send out PMs to everyone that has shown interest in Casascius or this coin next Saturday evening / Sunday morning to try and gather up interest again. The most people are online sunday nights which is why I scheduled it to end then.

I'd be happy to escrow this if needed. Multi-sig is available.
Escrow through LouReed is fine. Someone asked me why I didn't specify an escrow beforehand which my answer was that I wanted bidders to feel safe here and allow them to choose their escrow. As long as the user is trustworthy, proven and been a member for a significant time here, I'm okay with using them for escrow.

First time doing this auction thing (here or anywhere), forgot to mention one rule that many people request (one person messaged me about it): Sniping

If a bid is placed in the final minutes, the auction will be extended 5 minutes from the time of the last bid.


So if a bid comes in at 11:58:00 then the auction ends at 00:03:00. Sorry to all for not posting in the OP, figure with a week left and the bids not being as high as a couple offers I have received that this isn't a problem.

If a bid is placed at 11:54:00 then the auction ends at the original time.
