[FA] MX Steel Brobot V2

[metalliqaz]

I like this thing.  It's a great design and all, but I just can't find a place to use it.  I use light switches that can't hold it up, and the 'bro'file doesn't match any of my key sets.
I don't think one of these has popped up in the classifieds yet so I don't really know what it's worth.  Therefore, auction time.



Rules:

• Auction price does not include shipping, I will calculate shipping based on your location when you pay.
• Tracking is required.
• All bids must go in the thread.
• Minimum bid increment is $1.  I may increase this number if things get stupid.
• The auction closes when a bid has stood unchallenged for 8 hours forum time, with a minimum duration of 5 days from this post.

This is a new style of auction.  The usual style makes no sense and favors snipers who happen to live in a favorable time zone.  This should be fair for all parties, and discourage shenanigans.  The auction lasts for five days.  After that, any bid extends the auction for 8 hours.  This should allow everyone to get sleep as needed.  There is no definitive end time, you just have to hold the winning bid for 8 hours.

thanks

Edit: Bids are not accepted via PM but I am open to interesting trades.

Edit: it's MX

Edit: Shipping to CONUS will use USPS Priority for $5.80 unless you want to use 1st class mail, which will be slightly cheaper.

[metalliqaz]

Okay so based on the OP, the minimum end time is Saturday the 18th, 10:21 PM US Eastern time.

Time is extended based on the latest bid to January 18, 2014, 10:36:34 pm Eastern time.

Leading bid: riotonthebay $90

I'm glad you're trying this style of auction! I've been thinking about it for a couple of weeks now but didn't have anything to auction .

[rowdy]

This is MX, right?

Yup, sorry I forgot to mention it.

If it's as heavy as you say, I'm a little concerned about the cost of shipping with the weight

$50

[Belfong]

In the V2 thread, Bro weighed it. I think it only weight point something ounce. Very light actually.

I think standard cap was 10, aluminum was 20 and steel was 60. The measurement used, I am not sure.

EDIT: Here ya go, GLWA

[Belfong]

This is probably the first FS or FA for Steel Brobot huh? There's like 25 of them so it's very rare. I'm just surprise to see it being in classifieds so soon.. Hmmmmm..

Didn't pacifist or somebody else sell theirs when they won?

I wouldn't doubt it.

Since I'll be using this as a paper weight, the added heft doesn't really bother me.

[metalliqaz]

Brown springs can actually lift, just not very well.  Clears do fine.

He's saying good luck to people as he has his own for topre but hasn't got a topre keyboard yet. Wasn't referring to your one specifically. Was just saying it'd be nice for people to own one of these beautys. Although that's what i gather from what he said.

[dustinhxc]

I Bid $62

[dustinhxc]

Are you CONUS? So I can get an idea on shipping. Thanks 

[metalliqaz]

I am CONUS.  Shipping to US48 will be 5.80 for USPS Priority... or less, if you're feeling brave.

[slip84]

To the mooooooon! Seriously though, I expect ~$200.

Haha, not a bid for me (I'm trending in the "gotta be under $50 for me to spend any money" camp right now), but where I think this might got. First one in classified and all + auction format where passion runs crazy.

Oh, I'm not shopping for one of these. Just decided to express an opinion, which I now regret posting.

[Wildcard]

So the OP was modified to add the 5 day rule??? Because I don't recall reading that before.

Yeah we probably should enforce auction ban's on GH.

Thanks for clarifying, I'll get this going again.

$65

[1pq]

I bid $68

[Wildcard]

$69 because someone had to do it.

[Belfong]

You know, with this auction rules, one might as well just put the highest you are willing to go. If you are out bid, it means you won't go higher.. no need to put a $1 increment anymore..

[piraterice]

[piraterice]

Really wait to get one brobot key as a new one!

[jufa]

[Pacifist]

Wow, now I regret selling my steel brobot to somebody who didn't get in at cost before I even touched the cap.

GLWA, this format is pretty cool.

Yea sure I could have cancelled my order to Bro Caps. But instead, I let another Gher get the cap because I was $5 short in the PP

Sure, I could have cancelled letting him have the cap, but looking from my perspective: i can't buy the cap from Bro caps because i'm short a few bucks, so instead of bothering him while he's organizing everything, I let some other Gher who missed the sale to get in on the caps. So either bother bro caps or let someone else take the cap because i can't pay for it myself.
