[AUCTION] 5oz of .999 Fine Copper Bitcoin Penny Doodle |only 10 made

[Hhampuz]

Are you going to accept that bid? Unless it's your account it is clearly someone that might be trying to make fun of you. Considering the name and the fact you had this rule in place. It was created today and this was the first post it made. I'll stay away from this auction until you have made up your mind regarding that.

Are these copper doodles come with a paper one aswell ?

Short Answer: These copper doodles are one-off originals, with no paper copy.

Long Answer: Well, technically, everything, including my signatures front and back, were originally drawn on paper, then photographed, made digital, imported into Photoshop, then meticulously second-layer traced by me to create a digital doodle, which was then saved and provided to the copper artisan for engraving. So these doodles were hand-drawn, then digitally drawn (traced) by me. Unfortunately, only a few of the original paper doodles / sketches survived, and I didn't think it would be fair to include them with their matching Copper Doodles if everyone didn't get one. I hope that makes sense.

I can recall a post where theymos says its okay to use alts to bid on your own auctions because you didn't say you wouldn't.

You are right I've never heard of shill bidding before

True. But allowing something simply because you didn't state that you wouldn't is a ridiculous opinion. For instance, in this auction thread, you didn't state that you wouldn't steal the high bidder's BTC and send him an empty box, but that doesn't make it right if you were to do so. I'm sure you understand now. Just set a high reserve next time, and all will be good.

Good luck with the auction.

I agree right or wrong just set the auction start at the lowest price you would accept.  No bids it doesnt sell no harm, ive seen with hidden reserves for most items people shy away from or with known "own" bids because you dont know if you are getting played or not.  Just my opinion

This certainly is a nice thread
look forward to how high it goes

and i dont think that 0.1 bid should be valid given the username unless until the guy sends fund to the escrow before bidding

shameless plug for satoshiauctions.com - you can set reserve or do silent auctions even - Understandably there is no good way to do a reserve via forum auctions here, as by their nature reserves are supposed to be secret. A minimum bid amount is not the same thing a reserve, in other words. Nonetheless, it is not good form to use an alt to bid up, but I think that is why it is not explicitly banned here, it is a grey area to accommodate reserves. Anyways, satoshiauctions.com

I think we should have an annual forum awards. I'd nominate OP to win the 'most entertaining thread creator' award.

If the bidder wasn't TMAN then who was it?
