Any idea when you will be putting up the second redeemed 25BTC Casascius auction?

I will put it up tomorrow night (April 21). Sorry for the delay.  I wanted to take more pictures of the coins for the next two auctions and also decided to wait until the first transaction was complete before posting this second one up.  As of today that transaction is complete.

Perhaps a few auctions for these pieces will get you the best return?  A bit more work on your side but there seems to be pretty good demand.  

I am interested in the funded nickel as well as one peeled 25 but I would prefer a bidding war occur in an auction format.  

I agree with you, actually. A number of people have been encouraging me to do an auction to maximize the sale amount, but I think it is also best for transparency. I was a bit hesitant because I didn't want people to think I was trying to game the system and/or lose credibility in any way.  The more I think about it, the more I think a formal auction is best for all rather than the pseudo-auction that is happening right now. Some people have PMed telling me not to accept an offer without talking to them first, asking to buy different portions of the entire lot, and it just gets confusing. With an auction, everyone can see what is happening and bid accordingly.  I know you guys have all figured this out, but I am new to this so I apologize.

The first to be auctioned will be the three 25 BTC redeemed coins (individually).

You guys are ruthless  Grin

Every other time I have tried to sell here, I am told I asked too much. I am not greedy but I do want a fair price. Once this craziness slows down I will sell to the highest bidder with no haggling or hassle on my part since this is more than I asked for. Had no idea there was such demand for these.

I will say I have also received an offer for the entire lot which greatly simplifies the transaction, at 10BTC.

Fair prices for the 25s. You could potentially get more on Ebay. 0.3 for a redeemed 1 BTC seems pretty steep though.

Wow, clearly I am late to the party  Undecided

I would love to be able to pick up one of the 25 BTC's as well if something can be worked out. I would be fine with an auction since it seems there is so much interest.

Let me sleep on this, guys. Sorry. I will have a decision tomorrow.

Ok anyway I owe polo some coins so I could buy all 3 and I agree to sell poloherb 2 of them at 2/3 the total price.. then you sell your whole 3 to one person and we get them each. I could ship them to Poloherb with the coins I owe him..

Just proposition Wink

Night.

Okay guys, I realize this is not an auction, but I have several offers for 1.65 BTC for the 25 BTC redeemed x 3.

Would you guys prefer that I list those three coins separately as an auction to give everyone an opportunity? I am open to suggestions. Or, I am happy to sell it to the person who makes the most attractive offer publicly in this thread (so everyone can see), considering all factors (location nearest to me, escrow needed, etc). Just putting this out there... thanks.
