Fuzz Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Has been done before. The last time was on a selection of aged boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oliverdst Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 It was a "closed" auction. You didn't know how good was your bid until the end of it when, as far I can remember, someone contact you and the winner bid was posted. If you are asking aboutkind of e-bay or live auction, I don't know. I've been here for no more than 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecapo Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 A silent auction is fine. Possible low reserve public, and everyone could see all bids. I would love to see some special CC up for grabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzz Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 it was a completely blind auction. You email/PM a price for a particular box or boxes, and if you were the highest, you got the special email. If you weren't, you got bubkiss. From memory, Rob got over 200 emails/PM's to sort through for aged 10 boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misterblue Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I participated on a few of those boxes in this format. They were great boxes and a fun change of pace way to bid/purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I wonder how many emails Di gets on the LFTW! Time to bring out the wine as she says Depends on whether people wait to see if they got the box or just email her anyways. Either way, it would definitely be an avalanche of emails.
