[AUCTION] One Sealed Box Of Genesis Series 2 Coins

0.301

Wait... Wait. You edited this post, as you originally underbid MJ.  

Is that allowed? No foul suggested, but I did see it .. thanks

Yes I did, the previous bid was 0.281. I thought I still had time, and I actually should have made a fresh post in hindsight. I apologise for that. Feel free to disqualify the bid

No foul play was intended btw, it was the 'last' second rush, if you know what I mean. I was still in time. Only just, but still in time.

But again, if I have broken any rules, this bid may of course be invalidated.

There were no set rules really except that it ends at 10PM EST and it looks like you had gotten your bid in time so if you still would like a box its yours.

Thanks

Fair enough, no worries, I just happened to notice it. Not a fan of auctions being held here since posts can be edited, but I like to think we are all equally fair members, so thanks for the explanation and thanks for mrbong holding it!

Edit congrats zepher hopefully you will post what you got in the trading thread from MJ!

thanks!

Even if edited the time stamp shows just in time I think?
Either way top two bidders offered a box.

Just for notice (not related to this auction, I'm gonna keep my head out of the last minute bids, rather for the forum in general),
edits in the first few minutes (either 5 or 10, I think the former) are not being displayed with the underline and the "last edited" text on hover.
This grace period allows you to correct little mistakes when you see them right after posting, without the content of the post being shown as "edited".
So technically, you could get in a sniping bid, and then (after the auction would have ended) adjust it to be the a) winning bid and b) lowest possible.

I kinda like them taking place here, but there are problems (aswell as benefits) coming with it.
Maybe it would be nice to get an "no edits" option in the Additional Options dropdown, you know, for the new forum software

Tell me if you get the last #33

I did not even consider the editing part but would rather post here than the auction section.

Am a fan of sniping auctions myself so that is why I have them end at a certain time but what I will probably do for my next auction is just make it last bid placed in 15 minutes.

So the auction would end at say 10:00 PM and if no one else places a last bid then by 10:15 PM it closes. If someone does bid after then each time it would be extended 15 minutes until there are no more bids.

Would that be a little more fair and open for everyone?

I would be happy with that.

The last minute rush of a sniping auction causes people to go a little crazy, and make errors as a result, myself included 

They are nice to have as a change, but I think some 'rules' about editing posts at the end need to be discussed - as we have seen, it can cause an issue. People may not realise in the heat of the moment. Editing posts in an auction shouldn't be allowed as per the Auction section, gets trickier here.

those problems could be easely avoided, in posting Auctions in "Auctions section" ( as posts cant be edited in this specific part of the forum ...)

I used to like the auction section but now it has so many user accounts auctions it just clutters it all up.

Precisely the problem with the auction section, it gets cluttered up with accounts for sale, at a pretty constant rate at that.

Tell me if you get the last #33

Will do.
Though I'm considering leaving the box sealed until all others have been opened, and then using my position to extort you all later on jk

Account auctions should be a sub...JMHO

Account auctions should be a sub...JMHO

yeah ... even if i personaly still think this would just be un-allowed , as account sales apport only problems: alts usages, scams, sig spaming , etc etc...  i'm against that ( only personal opinion.. ) ...but that was already discussed....

*crosses fingers* please have my last #006!

*crosses fingers* please have my last #006!

If #006 is in my box, you can have it for 0.05 Same goes for everyone else with numbers needed for completing sets. The whole point of me bidding was to help the community finish theirs. I haven't collected these, and I'm not in this for a profit, recouping my BTC is good enough for me.

There's a good chance I will come out negative anyway haha, but I don't mind.

@ MRBONG411 - Payment sent

Edit: I need to edit this and say 0.06 - my brain wasn't working. - talk about an apt amount haha
