TOPIC: 2018 8k Onyx token auction

Added a few more bids, we are now very close to 60%!

Closing the night at 62% to goal.

You might have fewer than normal last minute bids since it was ends on Superbowl Sunday. I know I'll be at a friend's house the whole evening.

On the other hand maybe that will prompt more early bids.

The other factor to consider is that preorders will be shipping soon. People might have a better feel for what they still want or need after receiving those.

I had totally lost sight of that. I might update the date for Monday instead to give everyone the chance to enjoy Super Bowl Sunday and still have the chance to do last minute bids. If I do I’ll post it so everyone knows. I’ll take s read mid week just to see how we’re doing. Thanks for the recommendation.

Mid afternoon update to reflect overnight and morning bids. We are now at 64%!

I received a PM with a clarifying question which I felt important to share. I apologize as I thought I had included it in the body of the original message. The rare bags usually have random UR's and maybe an elusive GT. These bags will be screened for GTs and URs, otherwise they will be intact. If that changes anyone's bid please reach out and I will update accordingly. I will also update the main message to include this information.

I think ending it Monday would be a good idea. Just my two cents.

I've updated the original post to reflect Monday as the closing day for last bids. Thanks for the recommendations!

End of the night at 65% - closer to reducing the gap to success. Thanks to everyone that has participated - lets keep it going.

Overnight and early morning bids added, we are now at 68% to goal.

Minimal update with a few bids, still at 68%. Lets make this happen!
