Hello there,

 

We do have a separate auction template if you want to auction a pokemon in our trade forums. You can read about it in more detail here : https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/119709-url

 

It is recommended to use our trade forum if you want to auction/sell the pokemon with participation of more users. Trade forums are easy for us to monitor and a more reliable way to sell your stuffs. If anything goes wrong, you can report us and actions will be taken if deemed necessary.

You may receive fake bids if you try to sell your stuffs in-game since its hard to monitor and everything is done in PMs. You can report such things with proper evidence. However, the chances of fake bids is significantly low if you use our trade forums. Its visible to everyone and gets noticed very quickly in case someone fake bids. The auction always has a winner and we do apply a force trade if the situation deems fit.

 

It is advised to enable your timestamps and take screens whenever you are auctioning a pokemon in-game, in case of a fake bid. You can report it and appropriate actions will be taken. You can enable your timestamps from the options tab. Options -> Game -> Check Chat Time Stamps. Timestamps is always beneficial in case something went wrong in an in-game auction and the pokemon was sold unfairly instead of legit winner of the auction. Providing screens with proper timestamps will help us to analyse the entire auction and do the needful.

 

I hope this was helpful. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
