Hello members and guests of overclock.net!

Welcome to the first ever (That I'm aware of) auction on overclock.net!

In this thread, we will be taking hardware donations and auctioning them off to be donated to the American Cancer Society in honnor of Syrillian, as discussed here.

Rules:
  • This is a "casual" auction. We don't have the infrastructure to make sure it runs 100% perfectly etc. Please don't be upset if the site goes down as you are making your final "bid". We are not an auction house.
  • If you have hardware to donate for the auction, please PM myself or any other staff member and they will make sure the item gets to me. I will be storing and shipping items from my location and we will be documenting buyers and sellers. I will not list any items until they are in my posession.
    *Note* Very large or fragile items may be shipped from the original owner to avoid unnecessary damage in transit.*
  • Hardware wlil be accepted for auction until April 20 and must be verified working. PM ENTERPRISE if you wish to donate.
  • Shipping is not included for most items. Check the second post for shipping info included in the listing
To place a bid:
  • This is a semi-silent auction. We will post the item for sale and the current high bid. To bid on the item, PM ENTERPRISE with your bid amount. I will update the bid in the OP accordingly.
  • To win an item, you must be the current high bidder when the auction ends. Auctions will only last 24 hours so pay attention. We are not responsible if your last minute bid isn't submitted by the time the auction ends. Bids will be confirmed by the timestamp included with the private message containing your bid.
  • There is no limit to the number of bids you may place. If you see the price is higher than your current bid, feel free to bid as many times as you want. *NOTE* The bids you place are going to be considered your max bid at that time of bidding, if you are outbid then you may bid again. Current Bids will be updated as soon as possible. Unfortunately we cannot offer an automated system like Ebay.
  • In the unlikely event of a tie at the end of the auction, you will receive a PM indicating this asking if you wish to increase your bid and if so, by how much.
  • The winner of the item will be contacted via PM and will be posted in the 3rd post of the thread.
Payment:
Winners will receive instructions via PM on how to pay for the item they purchase. Items shipped from my location must have shipping funds sent to me before items will ship. Most items that will fit will ship in a USPS flat-rate box for my convenience since I canprint labels directly from Paypal.

Please remember this is for charity and to keep things professional. Have fun and happy bidding!
Half the proceeds go to the American Cancer Society and the other half go to the Community Folding Project to help fund new folding systems in honor of our friend.

It's a beautiful case and I'm surprised you're donating it. Who ever wins it is surely going to enjoy it.

Just waiting to see some missing pieces before I can build a folding rig. I rather buy through this since the money will be going to a good cause rather than someone else's pocket.

I was thinking the same thing

I thought for sure it would bring minimum $250.

Only a little less than 12 hours left! Get those bids in!

I think it's just the angle and lighting. If you look near the top, it's darker. Definitely a gorgeous case though.

I don't really need anything, but I'll keep an eye on this thread.

What you're seeing can best be described as blow through. When it was powdercoated some of the powder bled through the holes in the front. I chose to leave it alone because id rather see that than damage the case trying to remove it.

The red is 2 different colors. The motherboard tray and hotswap bay were anodized red. The rest was powdercoated a transparent red that has the stock silver under it for a red chrome look. Very nice looking in person.
