anyway, I need more help making this work.

Wasn't there one just recently on Asuka?

Wasn't there one just recently on Asuka?

I would like to run this on all Japanese shards, but some of the shards are no longer as active as they used to be, so I'm not sure if I can do it.
It's been 12 years since I started this journey and I still have two shards that I haven't run.

Congratulations on holding this event in Atlantic.
I plan to help out with this event as much as I can.
I am looking forward to seeing what kind of rarities will be lined up.
Let's make this a fun event for everyone.

 

[Kraxal]

This is awesome! Looking forward to the event. Need to start saving up some gold! Someone loan me a few plat! Thanks!

 

[Manticore]

May I make one suggestion? Regarding the silent auction house, could the sellers be more realistic about their expectations regarding their prices and not take up safe spots? For example, if your item has been sitting on a safe for the past 50+ weeks, at a price no one would even bid on, don't expect that same price all of the sudden get a lot of bids at the auction. Wishful thinking is just that "wishful". If not monitored properly, you end up with multiple safes with no sales. Try to understand the market. If you didn't sell it during the initial hyped amount or bought it at the hyped amount then later try to recoup it, it's just not going to happen. This should not be the place to do it. Cheers

There will be vendor spots and auction safe spots for beginner rares. For rare sets over 500m we have the silent auction house. For items over 175m we have an exhibition sales area for handling containers etc.
