I'm going to be running one-day auctions, selling 1.0 LTC per day to the highest bidder in BBQcoins.  The first auction begins now and runs until 2013-04-25T00:00:00 UTC.  That's about 41 hours from now.  After that another Litecoin goes up for sale, taking bids for 24 hours, terminating at 2013-04-26T00:00:00 UTC.  I'll do this for several days, selling 1 Litecoin per day.  The last auction will end at 2013-05-03T00:00:00Z.

Place your bids by posting on this thread.  I'll contact the winners by PM with an address to send payment, after which I'll send the Litecoin.  I'll update this post to declare the winners and keep track of payment status.  Bids for each day's new auction can begin immediately at 00:00:00 UTC.

Since 00:00:00 UTC is coming up in a few hours, I wanted to clarify that this first auction runs over 24 hours.  It's going to end at 2013-04-25T00:00:00Z, which is about 27 hours away.  After that, subsequent auctions will run for 24 hours.

Question to the general public: this bid came in 30 minutes after UTC, which to me means it's the first bid for this auction.  But I'm speculating MrWizard meant it to be on the last auction.  It was an invalid bid for the last auction, so I didn't consider it.

Should we withdraw MrWizard's bid, or make it the first bid on this auction?

I'd like to avoid this in the future by helpful souls placing extremely lowball offers at the beginning of bidding.

Since so many people have started lower bids and are proceeding as if MrWizard's bid is invalid, I think the fair thing for me to do is to offer MrWizard an option to buy 1.0 LTC for his 650 BQC, separate from the auction, and then let the auction proceed with the bids people are offering.  Will I be shortchanging anyone in that way?

I'd say that is fair.
