CLOSED - New auction. Bids go up!

keldaw · April 18, 2013, 08:42:03 AM

I have just thought of another way to do a different sort of an auction, please let me know what you think. .if you have a spare item you want to sell , just show pic of the front and back of the item , ok . now the date you put it on exactly , 1 month later ,the highest bidder wins the item ,.
example ; I put an item on , 20/05/2013 at 11 o,clock then on the 20/06/2013 at 11.o,clock , who ever has the highest bid wins that item .. rules , item then can not be sold until the end of that time and date .. and only I item per month per person ..
think about it , would it be ok or not

just a thought . ok . starting bid must be face value on items unless they are ERROR coins or NCLT coins ..

please note this note is not for sale

this is just a practice run
if you want to bid go ahead , but remember from 20/05/2013 to the 20/06/2013 AT 9.40 AM bidding is finished , and remember this is just a tryout , no money or items are to change hands ..bidding , starting on this note must start at f/v of $ 5.00 even though it is a first prefix note..

PLEASE , if you think this is a good idea please let me know .
PLEASE , if you think this is a stupid idea please still let me know.

all these different idea,s are great for the forum , just takes the bordom away from some people , and gives the forum a bit of a lift up to..

I like the idea, but think a month is too long. 7 - 14 days might be better.

Keldaw,
I think that could work, but since Jeff is in the middle of an auction in this topic I think it would be best to start your own topic.
Can the off topic posts be moved to a new topic?

keldaw · April 18, 2013, 10:10:48 AM

thank you for your answers folks ,
I did not want to interfere with jeff ,
and I did not want to start today, that is just a suggestion and having an example of how it may work .
so I hope nancy , mark or pph , or any body else ,who can move it to a new position on the forum please do as I don't know how to do it myself , and I will change the dates on mine from this month over to next month starting time and as nancy said 1 month to long so we can make it 2 weeks or even 10 days , does not matter as long as every body gets a chance to see it .. all these things are just suggestions ,.. thank you for your response .. ,, kel ,,

No bids yet today. Have you all gone into hibernation with ausjack?

Maybe this will perk your interest; another coin with the same type of flaw. Now you are bidding on two coins.

It doesn't show up very well in the scan -look down the back of the Queen's head and shoulder.

I will be back tonight to collate bids.

Gimme a break Jeff , I've been chopping wood most of the day :laugh2:
Todays bid is $7.50 :ok:

Nevol · April 18, 2013, 03:29:53 PM

$8.00

JeffH · April 18, 2013, 05:29:02 PM

Right. One hour to get a bid in for today.

JeffH · April 18, 2013, 06:40:36 PM

Looks like we have a two horse race. Nancy is just in front at the turn.
I wonder if anyone is waiting to jump in later?
Bids are now open again for another day.

Cheers,
Jeff

hi jeff , very sorry to break in to your auction page , but I was just thinking how to arrange another one soon , to keep the forum in good humour , I really thought yours had finished and that was the last bid when I came in with my idea for another way for an auction , so I apologize strangly to you and any other people that I have confused in any way .. good luck with your auction results .. ,, kel ,,

maybe some item reminders along the way
nibbles has forgotten what is up for auction!!

JeffH · April 19, 2013, 05:27:11 PM

Poor Nibbles; must be getting old and memory fading.
For auctions we have a 1985 $1 with a nice seam, planchet delamination and a 1970 20Â¢ with a similar error.

If nibbles wants to bid better (s)he should register for the forum quickly.

robbiegal · April 19, 2013, 05:58:42 PM

the auction floor is safe with nibbles
she told me that she only really collects pre-decs now

just being the beautiful & fluffy-luscious auction assistant here tonight

JeffH · April 19, 2013, 06:03:43 PM

OK.
Maybe some nice pre die cracks could come up later.

Jeff
(And glad I know the gender now -don't want to make a faux par.)

Any more bids?
Was that a bid or were you just blowing your nose?

This lot is definitely for sale...jump in now before it is too late!

Going, Going...

SOLD to the lady in the floral h....hang on, that's the cud queen!
Well done Nancy.
