[sold] Auction charizard

[Sandolas]

There is the 15 minutes rule in auctions, no?

[Innerfocus]

Hello all,

Using GMT+0 i will determine the correct winner of this auction

Auction Start: 21/04/24 at 9:02pm by Anxhar with a bid of 100,000
Auction End: 23/04/24 at 8:49pm by @H3b3r0004 with a bid of 180,000 <----- WINNER

The bid of 200,000 by @Sandolas at 9:04pm is considered invalid as it came exactly 15 minutes after the most previous valid bid during the 15minute extension period. Here's how the 15-minute bid extension period works:

9. End point is final and must be honoured.

- In-game: End points cannot be extended for any reason, and must be accurate to the second that the auction is set to end. It is recommended to use timestamps to manage your auction correctly.

› e.g. If the auction ends at 15:00:00, bids are valid until 14:59:59 and no later.

- Forum: If a bid is received in the final 15 minutes of the auction, the end point will be delayed by 15 minutes from that bid, and will be delayed by 15 minutes for each new bid thereafter, until the current offer has been held for a full 15 minutes. Must be accurate to the minute that the auction is set to end.

› e.g. If the auction ends at 15:00, it will end at 15:00:00. If a late bid is received in the final 15 minutes, at 14:46, the auction will end at 15:01. If another user bids at 15:00, the auction will be extended again, and will end at 15:15, this will be repeated until the current offer has been held for a full 15 minutes.

To be extra clear here for all who are wondering, the rule above states that auctions "Must be accurate to the minute that the auction is set to end". Seeing as the bid by @H3b3r0004 was at 8:49pm, this auction was set to end at 9:04:00pm and is only valid to be extended if bid on at 9:03:59pm or earlier. Seeing as the bid by @Sandolas is at 9:04pm it is considered invalid as that is the exact minute the auction was set to end after the extension.

With all that being said, this auction has been reversed to the proper winner; @H3b3r0004
@Vezzolayer339 You have been issued a full refund of 220,000 with the removal of the Charizard from your account
@H3b3r0004 I have removed 180,000 from your account and transferred you the Charizard.
@Liquo I have removed 40,000 from your account as that was the difference from Vezzolayer339(220k) and H3b3r0004(180k) bids.

@Liquo Please familiarize yourself with how our Trade and Auction rules work. You did not provide evidence of trade completion either, as stated in our Auction rules below.

4. Auction winners must be publicly announced.

- In-game: A trade post must be made to announce the end of the auction, with the winning bidder's username and bid amount.

- Forum: A reply on the auction thread must be made with a screenshot of the completed trade window.

› In the event that the auctioned Pokemon/Item is traded to the wrong player, the trade will be forcefully reversed and traded to the rightful winner.

› In the event that the winning bid is a false offer, the bid will be made void, and the auction win will be offered to the runner-up. Runner-ups are not obligated to honour their bid in these cases. Where no runner-up is available, the auction will be made null and void.

Feel free to report this thread if there was any error in the reversal process. Will lock this thread as there is no further action to take here at the moment.
