Title: Reverse Auction - 2010 rotated die 50c - starting 7:30pm Monday 25th March
Post by: Ozcoins on March 24, 2013, 10:38:58 PM
Here is the announcement about the reverse auction starting tomorrow night.

Sorry its so late, something came up.

It is going to go much the same as Jeff's one.

On day 1, I set a price which would be nice, but unlikely to be snapped up.
Each night at 7:30 I will drop the price by a random amount between 4% and 12%.
This should average out to 8%, so I am hoping that it will get the price to something that someone wants fairly soon.
First person to PM that they want the coin at the current price will get it.

P.S. Nibbles (the cute one) is welcome to make an appearance.  :)

Sorry everyone...

This is going much closer to Jeff's sale than I expected.

I have just re-read an offer for a trade that I am tempted to make, and the reverse auction is on hold pending a trade.  

I hope this does not disappoint anyone.

Oh no!

I dont want to upset "big nibbles"!!

To do something towards making it up to you lot, I will be giving away a 1972 5c coin tonight instead.

It has seen better days, but it is still a 1972 5c.

Draw will be held late tonight so anyone interested can be included.
Please reply here if you would like to be included in the draw

The trade has fallen through, due to Goldseekers great find today.
However, since everyone has already been told the reverse auction is off, I dont know if it is worth trying to revive it at this point.
If there is interest, I might still do it now - please post if you are interested - otherwise I might do it again at a later date.

Trout,
You are a great guy.
There is a surprise going in the mail for you soon.
For everyone else the reverse auction will be started soon and this time I promise it will not be called off for any reason.

1. I still have it.
2. I don't think you missed much.
3. I am pretty certain there is only 1 rotated 50c error ever made and it is at 1 oclock.
4. The reverse auction will be held soon.
