Auction Rant Thread [v2] New Rule!

[Summer Heart]

I see an auction for a BBS unknown rarity dog. One of the autos is 'a list pet' are you freaking kidding me?

[Dakoda]

I thought all mainlists had some want.
I auctioned off my dark heart rat.
Only one bid, it was decent, but not exactly fair.
I can't get rid of this thing.

[Shy_Insight]

The point of an auction is not to wait until you get the bid you want.
If you want only one specific bid, then don't host an auction, go trading

Also, I keep trying to get help rating my bids, but no one can help D8

High five.

Since demand for a pet is started by someone deciding they want it so badly that they need to overpay for it, I wonder what in the name of holy alpacas possessed someone to overpay for the joker coontail ... just because of its "amazing" design which does not aesthetically please me (just like the Shima LT and the raven dog).
I'm going to stop there because what I was going to continue saying might offend some people who like these pets, but I just don't see what's so great about them.

When people make boosters/autos and then put some sleazy comment next to it saying 'maybe auto' or 'if I like that pet'

What's the point of mention *insert species* as a booster and then saying you can't promise you'll like the pet? What's the point of a maybe auto? Just another pet peeve

[Potema]

Be fair, they said.
Know your rarities, they said.
Include at least one list pet, they also said, auctioning off a high-in-demand-but-will-never-be-worth-that-much pet... *cough*

I just reported a thread for being in the wrong forum. It was an auction for a UR bengal cat. As the page reloaded back to the thread, I noticed the auctioneer had closed the auction. Someone had won.

The auctioneer's autowins were 50 C$ or a few VRs. They clearly did not know the value of their pet.

I sent a PM to the auctioneer because I KNOW the "winner" didn't pay fairly. And that person is going to be really sad to know they got ninja traded.

I know who you are, person. If I could I would shout your names all over these forums because ninja trading is a really dirty thing to do. I want you to see this and feel shame. I know who you are and I'm going to spread it so people know what you've done.

[Airmid]

I don't understand..why people are auctioning the new Joker.

I saw one thread where they said an auto was a mainlist! What?!

[Peoni]

Wait
So
I offered you a list pet for your tokens.
But someone with less is in the lead?
Oh.
Personal preference, I guess.

[;LEVIATHAN;]

Why are people auctioning off tokens for vr's..? Surely they can't be worth that much.

I just saw an auction with four bids for 200+ tokens (yeah that's a lot but come on, really?) and most of the bids were made up of vr's and rares. One of the autos was, of course, list pets. Like, seriously? This angers me so bad, and I don't even know why.
