Welcome to the 17th series of Hidden Valley Auctions!
Welcome! Please note that the auctions will close slightly sooner this time, to avoid conflicting with the festial on Pacific.
For this auction series, payment will also be accepted on Pacific, as long as payment occurs before the end of the festival.
This is the now-traditional final auction of the series, with items which came in too late to be listed earlier, or which failed to sell the first time. Because of this, items will be added continually right up until this auction closes - it's always worth giving the listings another look!
As always, items are grouped into the following categories:
Minimum bids/increments (unless otherwise specified):
For anyone who does not use ICQ or some other instant messaging platform, contact me and I will make arrangements with you - please make sure that you have access to a mailbox somewhere on Atlantic where I can deliver your items.
There will be no private bids. All bids must be made in this thread.
Proxies are permitted; if you need a proxy, please feel free to ICQ me. However, given the size of these auctions, and the number of ICQs I receive daily, if you can bid for yourself, please do. Also, contact me early - for any auction, I stop accepting proxy requests 1 hour before the end of that auction. Important: I will confirm all proxy requests. If you ICQ or PM me to ask for a proxy, and I do not reply confirming it, assume that I did not receive it - please send the request again!
Bids are accepted in the order they are placed. Any bids placed which set a specific time, or other condition under which they will become effective, I will treat as a bid without conditions. Any proxies under my control will similarly be entered when my time permits, not on any specific schedule.
For the majority of the items in this auction, I am not the owner, but merely the auctioneer. I reserve the right to bid on any items not my own.
The normal 10 minute rule will apply. The auction for that individual item will continue until ten minutes elapses with no further bids. The timestamp on the forum posts will be the deciding timer.
All reserves are firm. For rubble and rose auctions especially, 'range bids' ("lots 10 through 100 - 100k") are definitely encouraged.
No bid retractions will be allowed. Bids must not be edited after they are posted. Anyone caught modifying or retracting bids will face possible consequences including bans from future auctions.
I reserve the right to make errors interpreting minimum bid increments or any other part of these rules. Resolving such errors is left to my discretion.
Payment will be accepted only on Atlantic (or Pacific). If you can only pay on another shard, please contact me prior to the end of the auction. Items will be delivered on Atlantic regardless of where payment occurs.
Please PM or ICQ 23573865 with any questions.
I run auctions about once a month, as time and my patience permits. If you are cleaning house or have anything you'd like to auction off, please contact me via PM or ICQ at 23573865. Items may also be dropped off at the mailboxes at my house on Atlantic; please be sure to read the book on the mailboxes!
Due to the impending birth of my first child, this will be the last Hidden Valley Auction for a while. I will post to the forum when life slows down enough to allow me to again run any more auctions. Until then, please do not drop off items for auction.
Winners are expected to pay within a reasonable amount of time. The following people have had outstanding debt for their wins, and have not responded to multiple messages, for an unreasonable amount of time. You are therefore barred from bidding in any Hidden Valley Auctions for the next year:
