Rules are simple, this is a Reverse Auction. 
Offered item is the best Cap recharger in the game:
Chelm's Modified Cap Recharger Info: Med slot, 36% cap recharge rate. Fittings 23cpu 1pg
A must-to-have module to fit to your Titan.
Location: Jita IV - Moon 4 - Caldari Navy Assembly Plant
Starting Price is 11B ISK.
Price is going to decrease on every morning (CET) by 250M ISK. Confirmed with my post in this topic.
Either by an in-game mail or a post in this topic you can confirm your buy-out. Trolls are not invited, but I thank you in advance for any free bumps for this wonderful item.
You decide what is the price you are ready to pay for this precious item. You decide how long you are ready to wait and risk if someone else is more interested as you are.

Yeap.
I define the Max price at the very beginning. Of course it's higher than last trade for the same item. I decrease the price daily by a fixed amount, making it more and more aligned with the expectations. Till someone says: MINE! Easy to follow, no big discussion around what the real price is. If you think it's overpriced and you think you are right, than you only have to sit out till the price drops till your level.

You are right, officially this auction should be named as Dutch auction. But less people would be interested when I would put up that name on the forum. I called it 'reverse' as the price is decreasing instead of increasing.
Regardless, the main topic is still the Cap recharger, which makes your Titan a real killing machine.

The original was much more quicker. I'm already thinking about reforming it. Like advertising the auction in a week advance with daily bumbs and than start the auction and drop the price every half an hour or so. Opinions?
Btw, price is 9.25B ISK.
Is everyone fitting their titan with simple T2 Cap Recharger?

would not really work as you need to take the auction over all time zones. there is a reason why everyone finishes auctions around 20:00 Eve time

Mate you would be lucky to get 6.5/7 bill for the mod. I know because i have them aswell. If you did a little eve-searching this would have been clear in 10 minutes. Gl with the auction tho and i hope you get the 'old'price of 8.5 bill.
Reverse auction idea is certainly entertaining.

Let me tell you I will never sell it for 6.5/7B. And if you would spend 10 minutes with EVE search you would know why.
Price for Saturday is 8.75B ISK

So what's the point of a reverse auction when you have a hidden reserve?

Isn't it obvious? The sell the cap recharger for the right price. E.g. for 8.25B ISK.

The point is that a) OP didn't write anything about reserve in the first post, b) a reserve is meaningless in a reverse auction unless you state so at the beginning.
I guess OP doesn't really have a point.

I'm really sorry to disappoint you for not behaving as you would like me to, but let's finish discussing what I do and what I'm not doing at this point. Because the main point for the last day is...
You can get this recharger for 8B ISK.

The "last" day does not, to my mind, imply that it's the last day of the OP's so-called reverse auction. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. We shall see...
