Topic: [AUCTION] Silver Satoshi Mood Masks - Clay Cast X Lucho Poletti - page 2. (Read 1907 times)

BTW, in thinking further about this action, EDIT: it is a MAJOR scratch and further puts into question the integrity of this auction and devalues the pieces that were bid on. For anyone paying attention in the heat of the moment and seeing 0.10 as a bid, and then shifting their focus to another item number or upping their bid because they knew a competitive bidder was willing to pay 1500 or more USD than the next highest final bids is a huge flaw. I understand that this may not have been a gaming tactic and perhaps even due to bidding inexperience, but edits in the moment are evidently not flagged to the top of anyone’s feed when we’re in the frenzy of bidding, so nobody even caught this until the auction was over. Bottom line is that anyone that is, should rightfully be bummed.

EDIT: I also realize that Commited scratched their bid because they upped their own high bid from .08 to .10, another miss in the moment, but going forward, if someone is revising or editing a bid further down in a thread with a shit ton of action and commentary, it’s probably doing the right thing to announce that. Also, it’s really a pain to have bidders calling out wins, that should be left to the seller and if seller goes silent for whatever reason, it’s probably better to let it play out and sort it afterward instead of add to the confusion. I learned more from this auction than any other I’ve participated in. Question sellers early in the auction if something in the rules is unclear or needs looked at. Collectibles members are the coolest on the forum  and want to help and keep the vibe. There’s a lot of history here from OG’s that are more than willing to dive in to help. Ask questions and you’ll see how willing this community is to dive in and answer from experience! My two sats

I'll hold on to both until I hear from either of the two bros...

That's okay with me.

Still sticking with #17?

If others want to do the same, please do so via PM, then PM me.

Thx.

I'd like to offer #2 to @TheNovemberMan followed by @thiago007 if that's good by you, Clay (for my .077 bid). If not, I'm trading it for another of your creations that's been offered to me.

Result

Winning bids:






What now?

I will contact the winners a.s.a.p. via PM.
Believe all buyers will receive something special, which will fit nicely in their collection.

The Format shitshow

Okay, I will traverse each post and see what I can do, I am not promising Mood Masks to people who feel dicked, but I feel responsible.
Feedback is welcome, I am human and can learn from my mistakes. So, will see if I can make this somewhat better for  the people who noted their disappointment (in the future, as a small IOU).

What next?

The plated series will consist of seven gold plated, seven white rhodium & seven black rhodium plated Satoshi Mood Masks.
These will be auctioned, no reservations, no Twitter sale (though the personal contact was great). Best I ask Scarce City...
I think we will keep it at two series and some specials, another series would only water down the uniqueness.

 

Thank you, forum guests and members, people who supported this.

All I can do as a return on your investment, is try to surpass this creation with another.

Clay

That's absolutely correct.
Commited3d, when you scratched your #2 bid, did you change your #1 bid from 0.10 to 0.08?

Thought I saw that, but hey...

FWIW, I never bid on #1, but at one point it was going for 0.1 BTC.

Maybe some of the responses got edited ... just want to make sure nobody gets robbed!

Who won #2, please?

Again, sorry.

Where is #2?

That's what I thought... "per item", but the reply feature of this site didn't work for a number of people (including Clay). We'll see what he says, but this was ridiculous...I'm still having trouble replying to these because this site won't let me.

I looked through all bids.

Again, I am sorry I chose the format of ending the auction five minutes after the last bid.
I hoped this would be more cleanly. Sorry if some of you viewed this as a shitshow.
Maybe best thing is to ask Scarce City to host next time, they do a far better job than I ever could, but I thought Bitcointalk would be appropriate.
The selling part is not what I like most.

I did try my best, and honestly this is not about money. I really did not expect such bidding.

Feedback on the highest bids is welcome, but to my account and bidding format, these are the highest bids:






Clay

I disagree. It was a shitshow, but you interpreted the rules to mean "per item" - I read it as the auction was extended for 5 minutes. Like I said, I'm willing to part with one of these if I'm determined a winner.

I think if he lives up to his word I have number # 2 you can check how long it has been since someone else bid and there it is you can look, but this shit is about money and surely the right thing will not be done ..

Agreed. If I end up with more than one of these (I think I have 2 and 17) I'll part with one of them if someone at the high bid still wants it

Just went to check the prices... it's the full circus ahahah
Maybe a better place would have been raretoshi or scarcecity ?

Auction has ended.

I am sorry this turned out the way it did, I looked for the highest bids. One moment.

I think the OP genuinely did their best here -- looking forward to the next auction taking place on scarce.city!
