Title: [Auction] NOS, unused ANSI Cherry Doubleshots (+white moogle)
Post by: Ascaii on Mon, 13 February 2012, 13:05:16
Auctioning off my last set over at DT...runs till sunday. Pics in the DT thread.

http://deskthority.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1964

Current Bid 111€
Due to bidders asking me for a moogle kit to make the set work on filco, etc. I have decided to add my unused white moogle kit to the auction, should the bid exceed 100€.

He obviously looks to be making a lot of money from this.  But is failing to notify anyone in doing this.  Okay then..........this must be the MOST Silent Auction here on Geekhack ever encountered.

SShhhhhhhh..........

Seems to make no difference, I've already made a bid of 160 Euros and I suddenly realized that I could buy two (2) up coming Double-shot orders for that same amount.

I'm confused. If you follow the link the current high bid is right at the top of the post.

But you make the bid.........  no Response .............nothing ............nada.

Maybe he has already sold it at 46Euros.  Ascaii obviously isn't really motivated to contact anyone.

Hence, it looks like anything else but an auction.  If anyone has made a bid, did he contact you yet to affirm it?

You make the bid, watch the high bid, and bid accordingly.  It's not very hard bro.

In the same post where you can see the current bid amount it also says when the auction will end.

He's in Germany, do you expect him to be on your time schedule?

It's like 5am over in Berlin.  He's probably sleeping. lol  He'll get back to you when he gets up.  Just make the bid, cross your fingers and hope for the best.

Hi guys, I'm very sorry, but I was sleeping. Your bid is locked in and you are in the lead at 68€. Any bids pmed before sunday the 19th will be considered and I will do my best to update the thread several times daily, should there be a change. I will admit im a man of the pre-smartphone era, so I cannot check and update the thread when im not home. As a rule of thumb I guarantee to check it mornings and evenings, though usually im on inbetween as well.

Wow.. I got myself two sets of used one for 54euro. I wonder whoever got the unused set will be acteually using it on a daily basis. I would put it on display and never touch it if I spend that much.

I gotta say the pricing for used set is on the fair side given how difficult it is for us to get them. Unlike white on black double shots. Also shininess on white caps are a lot more tolerable than the black ones.

Post by: Ascaii on Thu, 16 February 2012, 17:38:47
I haven't talked to my source yet but prices might actually rise a bit. Nothing huge, but a tolerable increase to cover costs for buying envelopes, bubble foil, tape, shipping from supplier to me, etc. I will have a conclusive answer once I get into the planning of the next round.

I wan't aware of that rule. I feel like bumping threads is fine as long as it's not excessive. 1 per ever 24 hours is fine by me.

Rules lawyers...

Is there also a rule that says that you can't make two threads about the same thing?
Are we expected to just hope everyone wades through pages of threads to find stuff that may or may not still be for sale?

I feel as though some of the thread bumping has a greater positive effect than some of ripster's posts, but maybe that's just me.
