More expensive than most items sold at goldins or lelands...

Listen, I apologize if I was not clear in my intent for this auction however I stated that it CLOSED at 8pm EST. Y'all don't wait 5 minutes in between your bids, I have never waited 5 minutes between accepting them. If there is a clearer way for me to express my intent in the next, I am open to suggestions. I have done many auctions and this has never been an issue but it is now so I will address it.
your auction your rules, people don't like it they have a right to not bid.
Khaladon starts to turn the crystal knob, but stops with a frightened look on his face. He begins shaking uncontrollably and flies across the room, as though by some invisible force.
**SPLAT!!** Khaladon careens off the far wall, slides down the smooth wood panelling and collapses into a quivering heap on the floor, with only his dignity bruised.
OP is sticking to his clear rules despite a loss of profit. Props to him.

Re: your auction your rules, people don't like it they have a right to not bid.
I said the same thing to Rogue in a private message. And I did mean my congratulations -- it was a nice item at a very good price.
I have just never seen an auction where there wasn't an allowance for rebidding at the end. 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 30 minutes, whatever. I refreshed and typed my bid (8:01 timestamp).
I just don't like when people say I'm making things up or that this isn't the same as a "real" auction. Many things here sell for "real" money -- whatever value that means to each of us.
You are absolutely correct Sorc, you did PM me and I appreciate that. I am just trying to clarify expectations so that this doesn't happen again. I try my best to ensure all my customers are happy and even if you did not purchase the item, you are still a customer so again, I am open to suggestions on how to remedy. That is the least I can do!
There's a reason time-restricted auctions aren't as common here: they don't maximize outcomes for the seller and prioritize speed over money. Folks tend to be explicit about their auction rules though. I know you're going to die on this hill, but I'd recommend not reading any rules into auctions that aren't expressly stated.

Yeah I like the idea of extending an auction's end time by 5 minutes every time someone bids, I might try that myself someday, but that should be expressed in the original post.

I think that is something to think about then. Next auction, I will make my intent 100% clear.
