[Selling] Brit’s Finest Silent Auction List (9-13 to 9-20)

This is a semi Silent auction; meaning that only the highest bidder will be posted once a day for the entire auction.

This will Begin 9.13.2014 and Ends on 9.20.2014 (midnight east coast time)

To Bid

To receive a book just say “book” to the steward. (correction "Book1 "or
'Book2")

On Top of the box with the item there will be a book with the Lot Number as the title. Simply write down the lot number followed by “- your bid”.

An example of bids would be

“Lot# 1 – Bid 2 million”

“Lot# 5 – Bid 500k”

Write this in a book (titled bids/yourname bids and your name in it) and place it in the mailbox out front. IF you do not enter the information in a manner that we can understand then the bid will not be counted. (I will make an attempt to contact you, but not much of one) It would be easiest on me and others to use the format stated above.
The Bidding Mailbox

Bidding Increments (taken from the summer auction post)

In general, use the following guideline:

We differ in the fact that all bids start at 500,000 gold.

· 500k – 1 million: increments of 100k

· 1 – 5 million: increments of 250k

· 5 – 10 million: increments of 500k

These are a bit steeper than normal but you will only get to bid once a day and there is no way to outbid at the last minute.

In case of a two or more bidders tying for top bid both bidders will be placed on the post and will need to place a new bid (higher) to outbid the other or withdraw. The bid needs to be made like the previous bids. (Placed in the mail box)This will be the only bidding that can be placed after the auction has closed.

Lot 4 Crimson Cinture : is an Artifact half-apron, introduced with the Mondain's Legacy expansion.

It is found on their corpses (not spawning in someone's inventory, like some other artifacts do).

Though we appreciate your interest in the auction bo we are not accepting bids placed in the forums. If you wish to Bid using the method set up we will gladly record your bid. Here is some more info concerning the auction http://stratics.com/community/threads/britannia-finest-semi-silent-auction.321000/.
On a Side note.
I think it's obvious but we will cancel any bid not made in good faith and we won't record any bid in other other method than as stated in the post. We would like to set up a fair auction where players can auction off items of value. This works two fold not only do un- needed items get sold but this offers up a better selection of items to buy. Something that changes and it maintained regularly.
We did turn down a few items because they were duplicates and/or below Min, this is to ensure we are auctioning items players want.
The silent auction is set up in a way that your time zone doesn't effect your bidding. In a Forums auction it's most important to be able to bid within the last few minutes, this makes it a time sensitive and even if a player would pay more than the winning bid they may miss out just because they weren't able to be at their PC at the end of the auction. not to mention this seems to be the time the forums page will crash.
In this Silent Auction you ideally get about 6 or 7 chances to bid, so it's better to bid high to beat out a possible last day bid.
So it will come down to either put up enough early in the auction to eliminate bidders or bidding your top bid on the last day and hope no one will out bid ya.

I hope this clears up some issues and gives some insight as to why we set it up this way.
Thanks to everyone who is supporting us.
