Excellent job on the auction, but I think your press release would have more chance of getting picked up widely if it were a bit "tamer" and less self-congratulating. Editors don't really like anything that could be perceived as "puffery" ("blockbuster", "gem" etc.) - they're just looking for the facts, initially, and the rest comes in the follow-up after their interest has been piqued. Given the importance of these types of releases, it may be worth paying a few hundred $ to get them drafted by somebody specialised in the craft of writing press releases?
