Auction Rant Thread

[huskynerd]

I am getting really fed up with the vast majority of users lately. I posted a group bid on a pet in a person's auction, followed their rules perfectly. What does this person do? They ignore the many bids that had been placed and instead posts "bumpies". They didn't add the new bids to the first post, they didn't even acknowledge them. There are already bids from earlier in the first post, so I know that's how they intended to organize it. I post, a little peeved but civil, "Were you planning on listing any of our bids? I posted mine yesterday." I wait another day or so, more people post bids. And then the person does the same thing again.

Are you freaking kidding me??? I am absolutely floored by how incredibly rude and inconsiderate this is.

Hahahahahahahaha! lol

My auction rules:

If you don't follow the rules I will ignore your bid without notice.

I'm accepting only rare+ 2008 dogs (ignore my wishlist).
This means no items.
No rereleases please (dogs with December 18th date).

Please put your bid in a group and post the link here.

The most recent bids:

i bid 2 very rare 08s and 4 rare 08s

and

il bid 1 vr 08 dog and 4 rares XD

What do they want to bid? A sunjewel? A dogtag? Come on.

Bahaha I laughed when I saw those. The last time someone did that to me they offered me a "Blue Toxic"

What, were they actually expecting to trick me into accepting it somehow?

I'm about to withdraw from the auction I posted about yesterday and foe the person out of spite. Seriously, that's the most inconsiderate thing I've ever seen. I don't want to accidentally trade with them in the future and respond in a timely manner, might confuse them.

I don't know if they posted those bids as jokes or not. I just ignored them.

Back in September, I found an auction offering two Grinners (seperate) and they wanted bulk in Peacock dogs (the auto was 200). I told them that if they could reserve the Purple Grinner, I would find them 200 Peacock Dogs in two weeks. Somebody won that one, but there was still an Orange Grinner left. Personally, I would rather have an Orange Grinner up for trade, not 200 Peacock Dogs, so I tried for that one. On around the 20th of September, I asked them if the auction was still going on and got no response. Today, I checked out of curiousity and found out that another user already had the Orange Grinner. The auction holder never posted, so I never found out until today. >.< Now I have a bunch of Peacock Dogs that I don't really need.

This is so awful.
I would put these all in one group and auction them as a boost up for hoarders...

Somebody sent me a trade as their bid (which is against the rules) And their message said this.

this is my auction bid. when wioll the auction be ovr? or u can just accept this, i honestly dont think anyone else will bid higher than this...

So I said,

It ends Around Halloween (I haven't narrowed down an exact date yet) but it will end Before November 1st. And this offer will put you in third.

They sent the trade back, saying

if it puts me in third, then sorry, no thanks, tell me if this ever comes in first

Well, then. I'll totally do that.
It's not too bad, but it still makes me a little angry.

I remember once I had an auction for a non-balloon, and someone offered me a 09' uncommon. I laughed, and later traded it away for a better offer. I hope I dont get an offer like that right now. I was thinking of auctioning my raven dog but im not sure yet.
