8D Auction

Re: 8D Auction

Bidding is still open. As per the terms and conditions, the entire auction closes after 15 minutes pass with no bids in the auction. There was a temporary issue with the software that has been adjusted. We will announce when the auction closes. Sorry for any confusion.

Sincerely,
Chris

Seems that items with only one bid can be bid on by anybody right now. That contradicts the idea that you had to have placed a bid on an item prior to 8 to bid again after 8.

Chris,

I and others watched as the clocked clicked down for 15 minutes without a bid and listed us the winners on those items and that they were now closed, and now they back open! This is wrong!

Re: 8D Auction

I wouldn't sweat that. Otherwise you would be screwing yourself too announcing what you had won, right?

True. Still feel bad and dumb on my own behalf.

Re: 8D Auction

Currently in my accounts, it is asking me to referesh my screen so see the accurate time left on the lots that I am winning. When I referesh my screen, there is no clock counting down because earlier it counted 15minutes from my last bid without another bid and then listed it as closed. It can't count down becasuee the clock hit ZERO!

And I apologize for asking what everyone won. I feel like an A$$.

Re: 8D Auction

seems to me that there may be a glitch in the system, too bad they couldn't work out all the glitches before the auction went live. Unfortunately you never know whats gonna happen when you put a system online.

Re: 8D Auction

I guess we have to give them the benefit of the doubt since it is their first auction. The Simple Auction Site people have enough customers and experience now that they should never have let this confusion happen, even with a new auction site, but still I'm sure 8D is panicking more than us on this forum.

I also assume if you are the only bidder on an item and 8PM Pacific passed and you were the first and only bidder on a lot 8D will honor their policy if you bring it to their attention.

Re: 8D Auction

Wow, is there a special prize for winning an auction twice? Never seen this before!! Waiting for a clear explanation or does this just go with the territory?

How many bids were there when the original 15 minute clock ticked off?

Hopefully I was the only bidder on the Asomagua until after 8pm pacific or 11pm eastern and it would have been a sweet deal.
