winning bidder.

I believe the last one that sold that way was Induna's for $850. HSX actually bid too early and was sniped by an independent bidder. He went by the name of fatdogexchange and was planning on setting up a similar site in the U.K.

The port was #2 LTD at the time. Don't exactly remember the year, but it would have been the early 80s.

Do you take H$? {nm} slappydavid Jun 13, 11:01

Yes, but at a 2:1 exchange only, otherwise US$ via PayPal {NM} PortForSale Jun 13, 11:08

This is not allowed hsx selling account? Is that against ebay rules anyway {nm} mike255 Jun 13, 12:01

I wrote first to HSX for permission. More inside... PortForSale Jun 13, 12:22

Well, the sale price will set the exchange rate for $H to USD. ;-) {nm} elchan Jun 13, 12:32

There have been many HSX ports sold thru ebay over the years [$136mill port sold for $1,050 real dollars in 1999] RazorHawk Jun 13, 13:08

And I obviously meant the time was the early 2000s :) {nm} MojaveMeg Jun 15, 07:44

I guess I never really understood the point of jumping the line like this... Whats the point? {nm} dioneta Jun 13, 13:38

No point. It would be amusing to watch the account to see how quickly a newbie can loose a billion $H. ;-) elchan Jun 13, 14:58

What about adding him to your trader watchlist? Ttaaggggeerr Jun 13, 15:46

I don't think the account name changes, actually. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 13, 16:39

But, the add says the uname will be changed. Can we do that? For instance in my watchlist here's what my link looks like: elchan Jun 13, 16:50

Oh, btw Dave, thanks for the tip about trading on news. It's working out real well this week, for me. {nm} elchan Jun 13, 16:52

You're welcome :) {nm} Dave3626 Jun 14, 05:33

See, I just changed my uname to elchan2012. {nm} elchan Jun 13, 17:21

Ahh, yeah, I forgot you you could change it (but one time only) {nm} Dave3626 Jun 14, 05:32

One one last thing on this, looks like the watchlist still knows how to track me, my uname change. Must save the uid. Smart monkey. {nm} elchan Jun 15, 07:25

He's got three bids... So some people believe there is value is not working for anything :) {nm} dioneta Jun 13, 16:50

A Kardashian joke would fit in well here.. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 14, 05:34

The current bid is about 6 orders of magnitude below what I would sell my port for {nm} JohnTEQP Jun 13, 19:00

Up to 5 bids now: $1.25 for H$1.7 Billion... PortForSale Jun 14, 01:38

HSX would probably put a stop to this, if it happens too often. {nm} elchan Jun 14, 08:46

13 years... It would sort of suck to see you make under $1/year on the sale. Building from scratch is the fun part, just like minecraft! {nm} arf Jun 14, 11:28

15 years of your life. You only get 6 bucks. Lol on ebay. {nm} mike255 Jun 14, 12:24

3 days to go and it's only at $5.50. Most ebay auctions usually shoot way up in the last minutes from people trying to snipe. {nm} arf Jun 16, 16:57
