As a master Auctioneer such as yourself im surprised that Throwaway94768 would be held to his 0.065BTC bid as myself and Cryptovan's bids were not valid in both Auctions A and B. He just decided to be a a real nice guy and overpay for your coins?

No thanks bud. I'm not sure how you keep calling us community. I won your auction and you added a day saying there was no interest from the community so you figured it was ok. What about my interest? My winning bid? I'm not part of the community in your eyes? Don't worry my feelings aren't hurt.

With your recent history you needed to run a flawless auction. You failed and are reaping the repercussions. Because [Auctions] can be edited on the Collectible board we as community need to stick together and have eachothers back in keeping the auction creators accountable to their initial offerings. This isn't drama. It's bad salesmanship.

My bid has been pulled. This is not how you run an auction. I had previously overlooked your brief drama filled history and decided to offer a bid as nobody else seemed interested. Adding a day after the auction has finished is unacceptable. If you did not want to sell these coins for 0.05BTC then it should not have been your starting bid.

You say you wanted to give people more time to bid on these coins? If they missed out on this bunch they had an extra hour in Auction B. If they missed out on Auction B you stated there would be single set Auctions started after these two ended. (Obviously people don't trust you or don't think the coins are worth this amount and your single sets would have to be priced lower.)

xboxthreefixme now changing End Time (added full 24hours after auction ended) of two auctions in Collectibles thread after they have ended and legitimate bids have won.

i just noticed this in Auction A. Good thing I'm not just seeings things.

did you just add a day to this auction?

0.05BTC I assume these come with holos?

edit: OP added a day to his auction after I won.

Yea go and read Lauda's comments. Then talk. So sick of half the community jerking that clown off and scared to speak out.

This is innovation, he did not portray his exact vision in his OP but that's fine because he was asking for community help. He even said he was going to buy the encyclopedia to aid him in helping him find each coin.. to be honest unless you know about the encyclopedia or see it on the first page of collectibles you may not even know that someone put that much effort into such an amazing book.

This forum reminds me of the segwit/BU fight for power. Someone new comes in and dickheads just shut them out right away. Let's see examples, a prototype before we judge.

This could turn out pretty cool. With my ever growing collection my red velvet case is getting overwhelmed. I recently bought a ton of old cigar boxes with plans to velvet the inside of them and store some coins.

A few of the members of this community are toxic, don't let them stop you from trying this out.. you aren't copying anyone with your idea, it's unique and I like it. Price it right and you'll do great. It would also help this community by having members actively seek the coins to fill slots that are missing.

I'll take a set. Funded. Still thinking about custom phrase.

have these been stored in airtite containers? i hate to see them just out laying on a table. this sort of thing brings down the premium of each coin.

Planning on putting my hologram on soon here. Any tips for putting it on straight

That looks like the plastic bag that's taped onto the package that the customs declaration thing comes in? It would be open if there were duty to be paid

Edit to add: pic 1 looks like the front and there is no plastic bag customs form thing. We need a picture of the back of packaging which is where this would have been I believe.

Id slow it on calling the buyer a liar and such as well. It could be the scenario that the seller did ship it and that it were stolen in transit somehow. In that case it falls on the buyer to submit a claim to TNT for insurance.

Travelling isn't far fetched either, I work a two week on, one week off schedule and am often away. My more expensive items I have shipped somewhere where I know they'll be signed for for me.. sometimes if a coin gets held up in customs and arrives my first day gone it could be two weeks before I open it. Mind you I receive pictures and get the person to open it for me so I can release escrow promptly.

All I'm saying here is both buyer and seller could be telling the truth. It would be nice to hear from an escrow such as minerjones / ognasty / blazed as to how they would approach this situation if escrow were used. I believe emotion plays a lot with some of the replies here, these escrow services play a complete unbiased opinion when it comes down to proof and ultimate decision.

Always use escrow kids. No matter how much trust you have in a seller. You may trust the seller but you can't trust the shipping company to act in good faith.

seems provably true/false with the weight of package.(thank god Kialara's weigh as much as they do). Im not sure if it is the same in the UK as it is in Canada but when i send a parcel or package they weigh it and that adds to the cost of me sending the package. it should be included somewhere on the shipping receipt. (buyer did not claim anything inside as to fake the weight of the package, empty vs a kialara would be easily proven)

Looking at this from an escrow point of view, the proof needs to be given from both sides to the best of their ability to win any dispute. This proof does not include things such as community favorites or activity on a forum, its things such as receipts/pictures.
