Here it is the Mother 3 Limited Edition Big Box Auction. I am doing one massive auction for a copy sort of like Paul's HBWC release except I will allow unlimited bids.

Starting bid is $100 which will cover creation costs. Increments go by at least $1.

Here are the modified rules...

Please note, if you have any questions not answered in this post, please PM me.

Please post in this thread for bid only.

Paypal preferred but not required. I will be personally shipping them out. S/h will be via priority mail: $10 US; $20 worldwide. Shipping is not included in the bid. We will be taking bids no later than December 2nd at midnight.

That said, if you'd like to get one, just make a bid below. Bids must be posted in this thread, PM bids are not accepted. Edited posts will not be counted and be rendered void. Only bid what you're comfortable with -- there will be other opportunities to get a different version, so if you can't spare the cash, just wait for a contest or take your chance at fate!

Answers to questions:

If I win by bid, can I still win by one of the other opportunities?
- No. I'd really like everyone to get a chance, and there simply aren't enough to go around unfortunately.

When will this end? 
 - December 2nd (Sunday) one minute after 11:59pm NA Time.

When is the money due if we bid?
- Payment would be appreciated within 7 days of the end of the bidding, which will be no later than December 2nd. So by December 9th, Runner-ups will then be notified that their bid won.

If someone drops out and that puts me in the top 7, am I required to pay?
- No. We'll go down the list until someone wants to honor their pledge.

How are numbers determined?
- Highest Pledge gets lowest available number, lowest pledge gets highest available number, etc.

How many copies were in total made?
- Only 10 big boxes were made CIB, 7 being auctioned off here and 3 were reserved for contributors to the project. I also have 2 prototype big boxes that I have used to test materials.

Can anyone bid?
- Any user registered as of November 24, 2012 can bid. Users registered after November 24, 2012 will not be allowed to bid, sorry.

So, Midnight Sunday being immediately after 11:59PM Sunday, or being actual 12AM Sunday morning? There's a full day to be confused on there.
