Really amazing idea. +1 to the top.

Done uwu

Start!

I will insta :) (Yes I know, I ruined the fun of the auction lmao)

Finally sold, can be closed!

Start. How long is the auction?

Has this always been there? I've literally never noticed and used it an absurd amount of times.

Proof of the Offer? I was interested in the Dragonite too.

Well, I have nothing against this so... why not? +1 interesting choice of pokémon.

Good luck!

I've reviewed the time and I think Necro won, Allsmell could've won if he had bid the same minute. He went just 1 minute late. Add me on discord, Bhimoso#6663

500k

Auction is now over, I'll ask a Trade Moderator to review this.

Good morning! Only 2 hours and 4 minutes remaining for the auction. Current best bid is 550k by Mohit15 :)

I have to rewatch entire One Piece and Jojo's, but I will wait until Vento Aureo is complete.

Right now I have no freaking idea if there's only 3 hours remaining or more so I will have to call a moderator xD

Start here!

I'm writing jokingly to bump my post and make it entertaining (which is allowed, btw) and the 72 hours is because some people cannot bid in the first or second day and want to farm money for it sometimes, I can get more people to see this if the auction is longer. It's a joke, I like the money I will get, it's just that the more I get the better and the more stuff I can gift to my guild members because I don't need anything for myself right now. Just writing "Bump" feels empty for me. Current best offer: Mohit15 with 550k. Less than 20 hours left.

Last nightly bump: 25 hours and 43 minutes from now, this auction will end. Current best offer: Still Aliceftw with 500k. *can you guys just snipe earlier? Like, I really need the money. Freakin Xeratios gets a shiny chimchar while I only get fail speed ivs or fail nature synch deinos* Come on :V (Bumping it now since I'm not really able to bump it while in my sleep, rather do it now than later)

If I'm not mistaken, this issue was being worked on by staff and is currently being investigated since some players suffered the same issue. Wait for a Staff to answer, they will gladly help you out!

Me and Xeratios will now call a Trade moderator to doublecheck since he was a bit overwhelmed at the end and it went really rushed with the snipes. Let's hope he did nothing wrong xD

10 minutes left, who will snipe it?

Yessss keep giving me money! Now I don't feel bad for selling it :D Current best offer from Aliceftw with 500k. (Seriously, if I had sold that for less than 500k I would've cried through eternity)

I only have a question regarding this recent point by Teerav: " For the counterweight, you can educate and allow auctions sellers to add a rule that extends the end of their auction by up to three hours if someone bids within an hour of their publicly stated end time. Three hours is enough time to someone that is actively watching an auction to take action with a bid. This rule would also theoretically completely eliminate sniping. And combined with a healthy publicly stated minimum raise bid, the fear of "never ending auctions" wouldnt exist. And even if this rule causes an auctions to extend for 24 hours, thats 6 more bids on an auction that I doubt the seller would complain about. " (Yes, I suck with the quoting option so I just did this instead). However, wouldn't high money buyers still be able to snipe anyway? It would only remove low budget sellers from sniping it, as if they snipe it in the last hour, the auction would get extended and it would give others (including the same sniper) to do the same in the next three hours. Let's examine situation A: A: This rule can be repeated infinitely. If this is what this rule implies, auctions for high and really wanted pokémon can be extended forever if there's no insta (since insta is optional, can be added later into the auction, and depending on the type of auctioneer, some might want it to extend as much as possible to gain absurd amounts of money since they're not in a rush to obtain this money. The others might actually care about getting the money quickly, so if they made auctions without instas (or very high instas) they would be forced to either wait for the bid wars to end or introduce an insta if they hadn't done it before, and they might've needed the cash urgently. B: This rule can only happen once. Here I see the other issue: If sniper A snipes at the last minute, auction extends and sniper A still has a lot of money, he can wait again until the end of the auction and bid again upping his own previous bid sniping himself by a safe amount (if minimum bid is 100k, for example, he snipes for 300k) to ensure other snipers can't win. This would affect sniper B negatively if he has a low budget, or the exact budget to buy that poke in that auction, since he had calculated there wouldn't be as many snipers. If you want to implement this one, you should make or work around an idea to restrict the same sniper from doing the same over again, and it could be considered unfair: if he has the money, why can't he bid again? And why can't he do it in the same auction? I understand sniping is an issue, and cancelling auctions too. However, I understand that there is situation A where the seller is not happy with just the starting bid and has gotten a better offer, but this offering person does not want to involve themselves in the auction (since they would be sniped). Thus, the seller just waits and if he's not convinced, he cancels it and sells it to the other bidder. I'm not convinced we should change it in this situation, the poke is 100% in the hands of the seller and he should have 100% control of it as long as he follows rules. I see that it might seem very unfair that they cancel it at the last moment, but thinking about it, the poke is never yours until it ends 100% and the transaction is properly done. Regarding situation B: If an auctioneer is just repeatedly abusing this rule to do auctions over and over, cancel them all always at the last minute to see who pays the highest and then sell it in the background after auction has been canceled multiple times, I understand they could face consequences due to fake selling/auctioning (Though this is not really specified in rules, as long as I'm not mistaken). since they're just using the forums as price checks, not as real auctions. This is the issue I have with the rule, not if it only happens once twice or thrice, it would only be if an user maliciously exploited this rule over and over again. Also sorry for the wall of text xD
