sorry op, this is too sus for me, might be perfectly legit, but I cant bid against a new user who just happens to bid on your listing after joining after you posted this.

I hope i'm wrong, good luck with auction.

After having a short private conversation with squall asking for advice regarding this matter I've come to the following.

I will allow the bid of the new user as it is still early in the week and the price (imo) is not too crazy for now.

I do however allow a mod to check if there is any link between the new user and me the OP. I understand this is not a 100% guarantee towards others but it is the best I can offer.

I do ask if durchbruchander can confirm his intention/interest in this coin. If he is really interested he should have this topic on watch or atleast keep an eye at it.

There has been several cases of these newbie accounts posting at auctions. Why? Maybe the auctioneer is bidding with alt account. Maybe newbies want easy posts by bidding something at auctions? Maybe it's just trolling?

Guess the "Collectibles" section could be restricted from newbies?

My bid is legit and I can provide proof to any mod or Blaater via PM.

Edit: I am also not a sock puppet account. I respect your suspicion towards newbies,
but sometimes this is unfounded.

so is my bid the highest or are you taking the newb bid?


Title: Re: [AUCTION] Casascius 2011 Brass Casacius Error Coin loaded 1 BTC [EU-based]
Post by: Blaater on December 15, 2016, 07:35:09 PM
Hi Tman, i have no reason to believe the bid from the new user is a troll bid or anything. I understand the sceptisism of people and that I might lose bids because of thus decision but without good grounds I do not want to keep people out of the auction.

If for whatever (obvious if it does happen) the deal does not go on than I will probably make a new auction and have a rule set in place prior to having these issues.

Ps. Would you like me to ask a mod to check if there is any connection between the other user and me?

We are heading into the last 15 minutes of normal auction time.
Remember sniping adds another 15 minutes to the auction from the last bidtime.

I pm'd Blaater that I would prove in PM to the other highest bidder that durchbruchander is my alt account I made bacause of privacy concerns.

But as you can see in the Blaater's other thread for the 0,5 BTC coin I already switched accounts.
I did not want Blaater's auction to suffer from people dropping out because the believed durchbruchander to be his sock puppet account.

Then I fucked up commenting in the wrong thread.
So that's all guys.

All is said in this topic, maybe even too much already. Locking this topic as only off-topic talk can now happen.
