Looking for a price of $15 and starting the bidding at $1 actually means fooling your prospective clients. In an auction - every single bid counts. So if you started at $1 - even a $3 bid could win this.

It's not going for $3 now though

I'm going to end this in 24 hours from the last bid. So in exactly 6 + hours i'll be letting this go to Alex.

Thanks,
Jamie

Salathe will become famous soon enough

When does the auction end: 24 hours after alex's post or 24 hours after any individual bid?

Lol - So you want this to go 24 hours without a bidding period?

Bid retracted. Good luck Alex.
