Title: [FA] MX Oktoberfest, Final Price goes to GH

So my oktoberfest MX cc from the recent sale just shipped, and I kinda promised myself I would donate anything I didn't want to keep. Sooo 100% of the sales price will be donated to GH.

I liked how jcrouse sold off his Hack orange, so I will use the same method, with some minor changes. Price will start at 200, and drop by 10 each day until it is sold, if it is sold before I receive it, I will ship it the same day it arrives.

~~Day 1: 190~~
~~Day 2: 180~~
~~Day 3: 170~~
~~Day 4: 160~~
~~Day 5: 150~~
~~Day 6: 140~~
~~Day 7: 130~~
~~Day 8: 120~~
~~Day 9: 110~~

SOLD

Should you have a change of heart, I've got a couple iron masks I could put up on a trade, along with a bit of cash. Otherwise, I'm hoping this makes its way down to a price I can afford.

Best of luck with your own goal, either way!

I actually think it's supposed to be a bidders paddle. Normally at an auction you have a paddle with a number on it which you raise when bidding. The number is used for identification after the auction is over.

The first one of these had a minimum price.

This reverse auction does not.

Although someone will almost certainly grab it was before it reaches $100 (Rowdy's prediction!), in theory it could drop below $0, and then GH would have to pay whoever wins it.

So interested to see it drop below $0 :D

For the sake of experimenting ;)

It has dropped to about average price for one of these, soon it will be a steal!

I'd forgotten about this one.

It would be my honour and privilege to contribute to the cause. If the key's still available, I'd like to add $110 to the GHrs/mkawa fund please. PM for details?

I don't think that would ever happen. In fact, someone would have definitely bought it before it even reached. $50. There are simply way too many people looking to buy.

Payment sent!

My apologies to those who missed out on this - just know that it's going to a home where ClickClack's work will be cherished. I'm a beer-drinking, keyboard-appreciating artist, who has loved this piece since I first saw it. This is my first, and hopefully not my last, bit of keyboard art. And if/when it ever leaves my home, it will go to someone who feels the same way about CC and his masterpieces.

Just so it's been said, thank you to you, to Bunny, to SpAm, and all the other old guard here. I wouldn't normally spend over retail on anything, but you guys have shown real heart and leadership in leading this community and demonstrating its values. I don't have a lot to contribute (yet), but I'm happy that this can support your efforts, even in a small way.

Should anyone have found themselves frozen out of the IronMask sale, please drop me a PM - let's keep the good karma flowing. :)
