Bitcoin Swag based on final bid.

My only concern about this entire thing is this term. It seems to imply that the goods are chosen after the final bid has already been confirmed. It would be preferable if the goods were chosen prior to the bidding, as this would add more of an element of surprise and save from any concerns that they (the winner) personally got robbed (for whatever reason). Are there any other considerations other than the final bid that determines what is included? It's definitely not unfair, but it's just something that I think removes the idea of an "auction"; it's more like a reverse auction when we say a number then you decide what we're getting.

Hi Spazzer!  A quick update- I received the mystery box from minerjones yesterday.  Here's a pic of what I found inside: https://imgur.com/a/vCWVs5d

Here's a quick run down of received inventory:

• Bitcoin toliet paper
• BTCC deck of cards
• Bitcoin acrylic sculpture- it's heavily shrink wrapped inside the beige box labeled "BitcoinGallery.Art", so here's a clear image of what's inside: https://imgur.com/a/f1vzTaE
• Litecoin greeting cards x3.  There is a LTC QR code on the back to load funds for gifting
• Bitcoin dice
• Physibit armband
• Bitcoin kimchi socks
• Bitcoin gold cufflinks
• Satori Coin
• CryptoVest Physical Litecoin "1 LTC"- First Edition (unfunded)
• Supreme BTC physical coins, "0.05 BTC" x3, brass, silver, and gold (unfunded) with hologram stickers to fund the coins
• Bitcoin bracelet with blue steel(?) cable and stainless steel components inside the green bag
• Bitcoin keychain
• Bitcoin penny
• Bitcoin plastic play coins x2, silver and gold colors
• 2017 Crypto Imperator Silver Coin (pre-loaded)
• Bitcoin gold pin
• Various crypto stickers
• Bitcoin t-shirt, Med size (fits me perfect!)

Here's a close up of "coins of interest": https://imgur.com/a/gKmtQJZ

On the left is the 2017 Crypto Imperator Silver Coin, which has pre-loaded 0.01 BTC.  1/2 troy oz. .999 fine silver as described on the front of the coin.  On the back is a hologram with seven smaller circles which seem to represent other coin designs for Dogecoin and BTC.  In the center is a window displaying the firstbits of the public address.  I'm not able to find much more info given the crypto imperator website is currently down.  This seems to be the "1 coin" that is guaranteed as part of the mystery box and looks to be quite rare.  If anyone has more info on this coin please let me know!

The center coin is the CryptoVest Physical Litecoin "1 LTC"- First Edition, which is a very slick looking coin.  It is not funded, but I'm not sure what is the value of the physical coin itself.  I'll need to do a little more research.  This also seems to be pretty rare.

The coin on the right is a Satori coin (pre-BCH fork), which I know more about than the other two coins.  There are many physical bitcoins that use the poker chip medium, but the beauty and thoughtful design that went into the Satori coin in particular just blows me away.  The coin maker has suspended manufacturing operations since April earlier this year.  This website describes the design elements in more detail (starting about halfway down the page): https://satoricoin.jp/en/index.php


Unwrapping all the goodies was a lot of fun.  I'm still trying to figure out the relative value for some of these coins, but for now I thought I'd share for anyone that was curious.  Cheers!
