Does the 10 minutes apply to every item?
Or just the item that is still being bid on?

my bid was like 2 minutes past 7 pst.. I hope that short time doesnt affect my bid. I know i was a tad late but after my bid noone else placed a bid for that item...
I couldn't get on sooner I am a huricane sandy victim and was stuck putting in a new floor. I didn't realize the time I dont have any clocks in my house(they were all destroyed) at the moment other then the one on my comp.

It was actually 7:06 not 7:09 lol =)

so i was 1 minute over the 10 minute period from your bid then

Also if you read the rules i did make it in time to place a bid...

""After the ending date and time if there is a bid in the next 10 minute set, the auction for that individual item will continue until ten minutes elapses with no further bids.""

Ending time was at 7.. Then by the rules of the auction there was a 10 minute grace period to place a final bid before the auction closed on that item. So essentially the end time was 7:10. And my bid was in before 7:10

promise to sort you all out in the morning friends. Unless in good old fashion of the Rares forum community you can come to an agreement based on the auction rules.

Part three is just around the corner and I know no one wants to miss that ::)

Rules are very clear. You all tell me who won. In the morning we are delivering items and rolling out the next set of items. This is the rares community isn't it?


There is value in saying "hey you won" We are in community

well he bid at 6:55 and I got mine in at 7:06. Then after my bid there was no more bids...

If my understanding of the rules is right. And there is a 10 minute grace period to bid after the 7:00 deadline, then I won it.

PS. Nabin I took a tour of your castle on Pacific lastnight. Mighty fine guildstone collection you have there... Do you ever sell off any of them by chance?

The way that rule works, is if someone bid at 6:55 and no other bid by 7, then its over, unless that bid comes in within 10 minutes from 6:55, meaning your bid would have had to come in by 7:05. it does not start at 7 for the 10 minute rule, or so I have always seen.

The way that the rules are worded tho, ""After the ending date and time if there is a bid in the next 10 minute set, the auction for that individual item will continue until ten minutes elapses with no further bids.""
It basically states that once 7 hits there can be another bid within 10 minutes to extend the auction on that item..

"After the ending date and time" --- which was 7:00
"If there is a bid in the next 10 minute set, the auction for that individual item will continue"---- The next 10 minute set would bring it to 7:10, my bid was in at 7:06.
Under the rules that were written for the auction my bid should count... I followed by the rules that Nabin listed.



I know it wasn't a big ticket item and i am sorry that i am making a fuss over this. But 95% of you in these forums would be doing the same thing if this situation happened to you :) ...

Ok I wrote the rule as so.

The Normal 10 minute rule will apply. After the ending date and time if there is a bid in the next 10 minute set, the auction for that individual item will continue until ten minutes elapses with no further bids. The Time clock in the forum posts will be the deciding timer.

This would indicate that TheChuck did win the bid as I included in the example "After the ending time if there is a bid in the next 10 minutes" That is not how the rule is suppose to work and I will be deleting that line in the future parts of the series so that it will read this way

"The Normal 10 minute rule will apply. The auction for that individual item will continue until ten minutes elapses with no further bids. The Time clock in the forum posts will be the deciding timer."

The point is once an item has a ten minute lapse bidding is considered closed.

Thank you Nabin, and special thank you to my Proxy Bidder Jinx, and my friends for not outbidding me any further.
