Luckytea Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Please excuse me first if I posted in the wrong section for asking about my strange type of auction - my unique give away activitiy Is it allowed to have a reverse auction? - in my term/mind, here is the explanation - the price will start from the high specific price then go down until 1 pokedollar, I will edit every hours following the auction rule I set up right in the auction post - the auction will be stopped when someone wants to buy at the cost of that current time - there's no insta with unpredictable changes of amount of money and time (e.g. reduce 200k in 1 hour or 600k in 3 hours depening on me) => it's like there will be no bid from the buyers but expect who is the fastest one post "want to buy" at any time I hope my instruction is clear. Please provide me some comments if this would work or just simply leave any reaction for agreement More importantly, I just want to make sure I am able to do this kind of auction with no prohibition Thanks all!

Luckytea Posted July 24, 2023 Author Share Posted July 24, 2023 @Lacomus could you leave me any comments please? love to hear from you 1 Link to comment https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/218659-want-to-start-a-reverse-auction-need-help-before-hold-up-a-real-one/#findComment-1288096 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacomus Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) @Luckytea Hmm. I don't know man "the price will start from the high specific price then go down until 1 pokedollar, I will edit every hours following the auction rule I set up right in the auction post" So if it starts at whatever number, it'll of course come down to 1 pokedollar eventually (being a reverse auction), and you say the fastest person wins. Is it really that challenging? Not sure I see the excitement, or thrill of this...unless I'm not getting it. May also require adjusting auction rules (introducing a new auction variant), maybe more work for trade moderators. Not only that, you're also wanting to dictate how much people are aloud to bid probably, so 1k goes to 999, then 998, and not going straight to 1. Maybe more appropriate for some off-topic fun, than auction. I'll admit my 1 dollar auctions are dumb, but this has the potential to be dumber (and maybe even creating more of a mockery out of the process), in my opinion PS But on a positive note, good thinking of ideas!

I think the idea is that he starts with high price and HE calls lower prices during time. The man who accept the current price will win (bid are not made by others, so it is not sure that price will go to 1 because someone could take it for higher price to be sure he is the one who takes it). It's like calling to take the pokemon when you think the current price is worth to pay. I hope i understood this correctly 2 Come to Small&Cheap Barze Pokeshop! Click and look for something you like!

Lacomus Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 @Barze97 If that's the case, then it probably doesn't fit into the auction category anyway, if a master is to dictate it, in this fashion Discord: lacoisi IGN: Lacomus Link to comment https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/218659-want-to-start-a-reverse-auction-need-help-before-hold-up-a-real-one/#findComment-1288177 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barze97 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Probably calling this an auction is not appropriate, right. I think in someway this thing is similar to ask people for offer and take the higher offer, but done in a cool way Edited July 24, 2023 by Barze97 1 Come to Small&Cheap Barze Pokeshop!
