I'm confused. Is the high bid 20.25 or 30?

It's 30 at the moment.

30 BTC for 5Ghs  Roll Eyes
That he doesn't even have in hand yet.

Some of you fellas have gotten yourselves a tad worked up over my auction. Surely there is something more worthy of directing your frustration at? I will contact the winner and reply here if the deal falls through. Here are some pics I snapped before moving the unit off to the datacenter to join my FPGA singles for the night(notice it is now literally in hand). No hard feelings guys Cheesy

Hard to take auctions seriously when there's bidding by PM.  You could at least post the quote of the PM bid.  Huh  I think a good idea is for anyone doing an auction is to escrow 1BTC as donation to the forums if poster plays PM games and doesn't sell to highest bidder.

Hi,

I'll offer you 30BTC shipped express overnight for your jalepeno.

Thanks

I'm not sure what else to say... Potential buyer is an established forum member and has requested anonymity. I completely understand and respect that request. In the event you are willing to outbid the buyer, I'm willing to allow John K. have temp access to my last few days of PMs. If he does indeed find there was no PM bid, you can have it for the highest bid below 30. Please let me know if this meets your conditions for a fair auction.
Wasn't accusing you or anyone.  It was more of an observation that much like what passes for "escrow" on here isn't really escrow, these "auctions" aren't really auctions and more like invitations to negotiate by PM.

I don't see how you'd possibly get 30 for this thing! That bid must be a mistake or something.

I'm confused. Was this Jalapeno sold or not?

Still available, the current bid is 30 BTC, which includes express overnight shipping to continental US. My order did not ship the same day it went into "production" status so it actually went out later than I thought. I have tracking now and looks like it will be here tomorrow or Friday. I will post pictures the evening of arrival.

The bid was from a trusted member so I don't suspect it is fake. Also, for some reason since the bear moved my post, I can no longer edit in this thread. All updates will now be at the end of the thread.

Lets get this started 16 BTC. 20 seems too high.

Fair enough. 16BTC is the highest current bid. I ordered on July 20th.
