I get a pet or pet set that has some high demand and the demand suddenly drops to nothing


I know how you feel. Thats happened to me so many times.



Ditto! Agree.

No bids at all for my auction, you'd think people would jump at the chance to get a september list for a few hundred OMGSC's... Even if it's a rat...

Lornsome night,
babbits bawlin',
wind bitin' the bone.
Wind like this,
full of voices.
Ancestry howlin' at you;
Now, find you devil,
Old Georgie himself.
Now you hear up close
and I'll yarn you about
the first time we met
eye to eye.
'you bring the stories'.
All their voices
tied up into one.
One voice different,
one voice whispering
out there,
spying from the dark.

I get people not liking auto cancels, but if it wasn't marked to auto or win within a few days then it's half the auctioneers fault. I've put my blue swirl in multiple auctions at a time because none of the feedback was particularly reassuring (mostly for tier swaps)

I really want to swap it for a pink heart, but I need a dog with better demand as always and people hold that against me in auctions and trades. Bidding is my best chance, so yes the pet will be in plenty of auctions because posting it has bad demand or 'it's ok' is gonna make me look elsewhere to win

i can't stand seeing "auto-ing in 24 hours/2 days/insert time frame here that is not immediate" auto stands for automatic, as in automatically win. What's the point in holding off the auto for x amount of time to allow the others to outbid. That defeats the whole point of it being an auto. If I offer an auto and someone else wins.... Just, what???

This hasn't happened to me, but I did offer an auto and the auction thread topic was changed to "auto in play" and they made excuses about being on a phone and couldn't get to a computer for a few hours, only to accept minutes later. Whatever. Someone is very possibly offering an auto for my BA and it's getting accepted immediately. No chance to back out or auto cancel

Sigh, sorry for the long rant

I can't get any bids for my blue balloon dog :(


I thought it had at least a little demand DX

I love when someone gets 0 offers on their UFA pet but once you send an offer that's already unfair to you they edit it to even more unfair (1/3 your LIST PETS value) "because it's an auction dog."

Yeah, how about hell to the no? Now I see why you have no offers, you expect a list pet for essentially nothing on your half.

So...I was browsing the auction thread because I really wanted another August PPS Lion, and I happened to come upon one really ridiculous one. Their rules for the auction say that the bid MUST include a list pet....I'm sorry but last time I checked that lion is not on the list. Guess I'm looking elsewhere.

The only two good bids for my Brown Border Collie auction were canceled and auto canceled.
Now I'm stuck with two bids that don't contain a single list pet.
*sigh*

I am seriously so close to canceling the auction altogether.
I don't have ridiculous boosters or autos. The highest autos I have are the top tier of the advent list. I even offered that I could add to make it fair. It's not like I have an auto for something on the main list followed by "I can dream".
Seriously, I thought the BBC has decent demand. Yet all the bids I have now don't have a single list pet.

That moment when you say not to post on the auction thread, yet people still post on your auction thread. >.<
