I'm Having 25 Steem Umbrellas Produced
In a country like Ireland where 2 out of 5 days is a "rainy day" in the driest parts, an umbrella is perhaps the second most visible item a person has, after their car...
Auction For 1 Steem Umbrella Below
This is a mock up plan of what the umbrella will look like. I believe the logo itself will be on four sides, as in the picture below. Edit: Correction, the logo is on one panel only. The dimensions are 75cm by rib length. The dimensions are 75cm by rib length.
Edit: I've also got confirmation that the umbrellas will be delivered to me on January 30th. Once received, I will ship them to buyers asap.
Auction No. 2
To participate, comment below in the format described by the bot, such as "bid 1.0".
The top bid in the first auction is 5 SBD as of this writing. That's over $40 with the current price of SBD. Don't worry though, I plan to sell and ship 24 of these to the best offers I get. The first two auctions will guarantee you one of the umbrellas, but after the umbrellas are produced and I have photos, you will have the chance to make another offer.
They are costing me €871 to produce, plus shipping to end customers, which would mean €35 plus shipping per umbrella. However I expect post rewards to cover a large chunk of those costs.
Please consider voting for me as witness!

Bid accepted! Highest bid is now @deirdyweirdy's bid of 2.000 SBD
@deirdyweirdy's bid of 2.000 SBD has been overbid by @abh12345's bid of 2.500 SBD
The bid was rejected because the amount is to low. The bid has to be higher than @osm0sis's bid of 4.000 SBD.
That is actually pretty cool! :) But looking at the picture, my guess is that there should be 4 logos instead of 3 if they are evenly distributed. You can't really distribute 3 logos evenly on an 8-panel umbrella.
Good point, I mistakenly interpreted the photo as 6 sections..
More sections and more logos - even more value for money! :D
Turns out they're only on one panel by default. Too late for me to change the order too.
A bit unfortunate, but I'm sure the people ordering are still going to be carrying them with pride :)

Hi @osm0sis. Congratulations on winning the auction with a bid of 4 SBD. Please transfer 4 SBD to my account whenever you can.
After that I'll be in contact about the postal address. I understand you won't have the address just yet, that's fine as the umbrellas themselves will take some time to be ready too.
I'll send the SBD's over right now. Cheers!Thanks @demotruk that's brilliant! Now I can promote even in the pouring rain, on an island in the middle of nowhere :)
Cool thanks, I got the payment. I was going to suggest transfer memos for the address, if you want to try that, but @abh12345 messaged me on Discord so is that preferable?
The umbrellas will still take a few weeks before they are ready to ship.
Yeah i'll let you know my exact address as soon as I know it, so no worries if they aren't ready to ship yet.
Hi @osm0sis, umbrellas arrived early. I'm pretty happy with the results. Let me know when you have an address for me to ship to.
Great news! I will let you know my exact address within the week. It looks perfect!!

Hi @abh12345, just to make sure you're aware, I updated the post with the dimensions of the umbrellas. It's 75cm by rib length.
That is excellent news because we are bidding to use an umbrella that we will most likely be sharing! HA :D
