That smells very bad..look at the garbage now have listed for hundreds and even thousands. .. yuck yuck double yuck
 
bidawinner,
My understanding is the $ 1.00 starts are not mandatory untill the "next" auction.
DP
 
How can that be ? when I went to add my name it was $1 ...max ? know I see all these names in there for nonsense bids..
 
Greg, any mods care to inform whats going on?
 
All the posts I read said next week.

Oh well. Better luck next time. :-)

Not that big a deal..just pisses me off that the rules changed midstram..most of the higher ones are junk anyways
 
Correct. The $1.00 requirement for Starting bids is NOT for tonight's auction! That $1.00 requirement for Starting bids BEGINS on Saturday's (1/25) auction.
Now, I've heard that there will be weekly auctions on Saturday's (presumably with that $1.00 Starting bid requirement), but there ALSO might be a SECOND weekly auction (on Sunday's) in the future which will NOT require a $1.00 Starting bid ... and it MAY be fee-based, as well.
Got it now? :)
Good Luck.

No rules changed. Next week is a Saturday auction, with $1 listings.

Thats been that way.
 
Anyways.. not that big a deal now.. I swore I seen it.. and it was just irritating to then go see the list with ridiculas opening offers to sell at hundreds and thousands...

interesting how MANY other people also started at $1 .. !
 
79 auctions with $1 opening including two of mine

Nice to know either we are all idiots together ..or it REALLY did say $1 on that opening form. :)
 
Water will find its own level, I guess. A++ for effort. D- for bug catching and problem anticipation :D Give it time.
 
But I think it was starting for the Saturday auctions.

Either way it will work itself out. I think Saturday will pull more people out.

Yup. I've 'pulled out ... for a raucous hockey game and some serious imbibing! :) :)
Good Luck.
