Title: [AUCTION] RAVENBIT NODE LIMITED EDITION COIN #1 OF 50
Post by: mrbrt on October 17, 2014, 01:43:21 AM

Up for auction is COIN #01 of Ravenbit's newest coin: NODE

This is coin #01 of 50 limited edition coins. Coins numbered #02 through #09 will be up for auction, in order, near the conclusion of this first auction. Coins numbered #10 through #50 were sold out in the first 48 hours, so this is your last chance for a limited edition coin. Standard edition coins, which are not individually numbered, are currently for sale on ravenbit.com (http://www.ravenbit.com).

For more pictures and further details on the coin please check out the original bitcointalk post (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=820645.0) and/or ravenbit.com/node (http://ravenbit.com/node)

Starting Bid/Bid Increments
The starting bid is 0.15BTC. Please bid in increments of 0.01BTC.

End date
Sunday, October 19, 2014 @ 6pm EDT (10pm GMT)

Bidding Rules
To discourage sniping, the auction will be extended 10 minutes after the last placed bid. For example if a bid is placed at 5:55pm, October 19 (5 mins before completion of auction) the auction will be extended to 6:05pm. If another bid is then placed before 6:05pm the auction will be extended another 10 mins from the time of the last placed bid, continuing in this manner indefinitely or until I provide notice.

Payment
Bitcoin only. I will send a pgp signed message of the payment address to the winner of the auction. The winner is required to pay within 24 hours. If payment is not received within 24 hours of notification of payment address, I reserve the right to release the coin to the 2nd highest bidder.

Shipping
Shipping to the U.S. is 0.01BTC. Shipping anywhere else is 0.015BTC. If you prefer expedited shipping I can arrange for that, and can provide a quote at the completion of the auction.

HAPPY BIDDING

No - auction ends at the earliest 6pm EDT (25 mins). You are the leader with a bid of 0.2BTC


Don't forget the bidding rules though:

O.K. I don't get it....
Since the auction ended I have 5 private messages offering to buy it for more. And the 1 public one above.

Were you all planning to snipe at the end and forgot?

mrbrt is shipping it to me tomorrow, I should have it by Tuesday.

I am not going to make a dime on this. Here is the deal. It cost me .23 shipped, it's going to cost me .01 to ship it anywhere in the USA.
So the highest bid so far is actually bittawm at .35

Once it comes in I am going to post a picture of it to prove I have it.

24 hours after that message posts auction #2 for this coin will end.
I will then take the value of everything above the .24 and make a cash donation to either
Long Island cares http://www.licares.org/ (http://www.licares.org/) or Island Harvest http://www.islandharvest.org/ (http://www.islandharvest.org/)
(O.K. I am going to take the tax deduction from your money get over it)
So basically you are buying the coin from me for what I paid (and covering a few bucks for shipping) and donating the rest to the hungry.

USA only for this. Otherwise shipping is going to eat into the donation.

The the address for this will be 1DonateQMeGvWeRxGvUdwcE1uxN9UYTC3N
Do not send to anyplace else.

No PMs for this it's all public (other then the winners address) if someone PMs you it's a scam.

I think the end time was inconvenient for a lot of people, hence the low turnout (for example: coin #1 of my first series, SATOSHI, sold for 0.6BTC) The auction for coin #2 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=828701.0) has just started and it will end on Wednesday, October 22 at 10pm EDT. Thanks for making the donation.

Sorry for the delay, got busy at work.
Some minor changes to the plan.

1) All the money collected will go to charity. I will cover shipping out of my own pocket, and put my purchase amount back in. So whatever you bid will go to charity.

2) Someone local offered $150 for it so the new starting bid is BTC.39

3) Still the only address to send payment to is:1DonateQMeGvWeRxGvUdwcE1uxN9UYTC3N

4) Please bid in increments of 0.01 (so the next bid is .4)

5) The auction ends 24 hours after this posts to the SECOND as determined by the posting time of this message. If 2 people bid at the very last second the 1st one in order of the message displayed wins.
