Even if someone posts an auction rule like that, it's virtually unenforceable. It's better to just cancel if the bidding is high or it's near the end.

I read the whole thread. Nothing major really happened. One bidder withdrew and the item (now edited out... shade? staff?) went to the next highest bidder.

I don't think that warrants a shackle on the bidders either.

Did a guy overbid, causing no one else to try and outbid him and then he withdrew it and the next highest bid ended up being a total ripoff?

A 100k bid was withdrawn, the item went for 80k.

Almost missed this.

Emphasis on "next highest bidder", though. It wasn't sold for two apples and a banana peel.

I'll tell you a tales of MR.G ... This is a work of fiction; any resemblance is purely coincidental!

This is what 'MR.G ' said ...

QUOTE(MR. G @ Feb 15 2012, 22:52)

As we can see,some items(E01,S01) have suffered from some abnormalities during the last few days,so I believe that I should have the right to decide whether or not to withdraw them.I will give the answer in last 30 minutes.Of course,you can bid them now.



The only real 'Abnormalities' here is that 'Y U PEOPLE NO BID MOAR!?' for the items (E01) and (S01) that he expect to sell for more than how much people have been bidding up to that point.

He then try to make an excuses to cancel the (public) auction; effectively wasting everyone time in a rigged auction ...

But of course, not after before a last ditch at spewing the 'BUY NOW, LIMITED TIME OFFER!' rhetoric in and attempt to hype people to bid more ... The reality, of course, is that no one give a fuck...

Then people who have been waiting to bid in end-game begin to bid shortly after.

Apparently, some where in between a series of price escalating for (E01) ... The 'Abnormalities' magically disappeared! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

....

'What a roller coaster ride!,' said MR.G after the auction.

'I'll have to do something about it for my next big item sale' He continued ...

'Maybe I'll try a private auction or direct sale this time... I don't want to experience that horror of seeing people bid for so low anymore!'

'But public auction have so much more potential to make me rich, and since I'm greedy, I'll stick with that!'

'But the fear will be there, too... What should I do ... What should I DO!' ... MR.G said while biting his thump.

'I know! ... I'll make a rule that ensured me in advance how much money I will get sometime before the auction end ... And with this info, it will be a lot easier to decide that should I begin to think of another excuse to cancel the auction, or let the auction continue for these suckers to keep on bidding and make me rich rich RICH! ... What a PERFECT idea, Now I can remove the FEAR from auction!' ... said the grinning MR.G ..(IMG:[bbs.pramool.com] http://bbs.pramool.com/webboard/pic/100.gif)



PS. WTF Am I doing? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

A few things about auctions.

When some of the highest players started to do them more then shops they were the only place to get good high level items. Higher levels players did more, cleared more rounds, had more training, found more items & trophies.

Then when something good came up, people with deep pockets would over pay for it because they don't want to take the time (or can't) to find it their self. And if you get 2-3 of those people bidding on it the price goes up fast.

I think someone had a shit fit because a bid was withdrawn/canceled, so they lost 20k.

maybe they saw something better for less in a different auction after they made their bid

I care enough to tell that I don't even care.
That ethereal mace has medium attack and every else stat is on low.
I wouldn't upgrade it even if someone gave it to me for free plus all needed materials for a full forge.

Not that I have better equip, it's simply not worth and the only special thing about that mace is that it's ethereal slaughter... here my laughter.

By the way, how do I get decent equip besides flying spaghetti monster?
I tried IW on Battletoad 70-140 rounds with different qualities but often there isn't even one equip dropped.
