View Full Version : WTF was I thinking auction...



Buckwheet
02-26-2010, 09:56 PM
Rules: once, twice, sold. Updated once per day. If someone holds the high bid after an update for the second time. The auction is moved to the next step.

Example: Friday night update Buckwheet has a high bid of 1m. It is going to him ONCE. Saturday there is a flurry of bids. Buckwheet holds the high bid when I update. It is now going to him at whatever his bid is TWICE.

I prefer public bidding. If no MB is listed MB will be 1k. Items can be picked up in the landing or FWI. If something goes two updates without a bid, it will be removed(AKA thrown in the well). I will be taking buyout offers on any item that does not have a current bid. Anything in parenthesis means I have multiple. Each bid will be considered towards each unit until each unity has been bid upon. Then each subsequent bid will outbid the lowest priced item.

I am full aware a lot of this could be junk. In most cases if I got nothing back from my bard I am listing it just in case. Stuff will be added throughout.

2-27 NEW a werebear skin backpack - CB:10k TyrilPraedus SOLD

You estimate that a werebear skin backpack can store a very large amount with enough space for any number of items.
You determine that you could wear the backpack on your back.
You analyze your werebear skin backpack and sense that the item is free from merchant alteration restrictions.
You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the werebear skin backpack for you or have its pockets deepened.
The first thing that strikes you about the backpack is the weight, which is about 10 pounds.
The first thing that strikes you about the backpack is the weight, which is about 110 pounds.

2-27 NEW a weathered puma hide cloak - CB:20k TyrilPraedus SOLD
You analyze your puma hide cloak and sense that the item is free from merchant alteration restrictions.
You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the puma hide cloak for you or have its pockets deepened.
You estimate that a weathered puma hide cloak can store a very large amount with enough space for any number of items.
You determine that you could wear the cloak, hanging it from your shoulders. The cloak appears to serve some purpose.
The first thing that strikes you about the cloak is the weight, which is about 8 pounds.
The first thing that strikes you about the cloak is the weight, which is about 96 pounds.

2-27 NEW a smooth crystalline globe - CB:70k Murkshev SOLD
The globe has been crafted from smooth crystal and seamlessly put together. Crystal blue water fills the globe, and what looks like an underwater terrarium has been made inside. Small pebbles and grass shift occasionally as the item is disturbed. Swimming in the middle of the globe is a mottled red and white fish with large bug-eyes staring directly back at you.
You tap sharply against the side of your crystalline globe, causing ripples of water to ring outward and the bug-eyed fish to dart around the globe in alarm.
You run your fingers along the surface of your crystalline globe, and the bug-eyed fish inside suddenly stops. As you continue to trace patterns on the outside surface, the fish begins to swim in sync with your fingertips.
You gently shake your crystalline globe, shifting the small pebbles around the bottom and causing a cascade of bubbles to form. The bug-eyed fish inside does a lazy loop around the bubbles, but overall doesn't seem disturbed.

Miscellanious or unknown.

UPDATED 2-27pair of fake razor-sharp fangs (7) - They Do NOT show when you look at the person in their description.
XXXX casually runs the tip of her tongue over the point of one of her razor-sharp fangs, somehow managing to appear both threatening and seductive at the same time.
XXXX reaches up and polishes the front of one of her razor-sharp fangs with the tip of her index finger.
XXXX gnaws lightly on her lower lip, as if lost in thought. The razor-sharp tip of one of her fangs breaks the skin and causes a tiny bead of blood to appear. Almost absent-mindedly, she catches it with the tip of her tongue.

Got a PM from one of the bidders saying due to RL concerns they have to withdraw their bids.

I don't know of any fair way to do this other than to restart the bidding on these two items. On one hand someone with the original bid who was outbid days ago might not have the coin and I feel it is not responsible to list their bid until they confirm it.

On the other hand starting over means that someone could get in a minimum bid that forces the original bidder out of the running.

So with that in mind I have listed these items with no bids on the front page until the original bidders confirm or deny their bid.
