My first bid was 1s, my reserve is probably much lower than the going price, but you do you Edited August 21, 2022 by HuhWhat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My first bid was 1s, my reserve is probably much lower than the going price, but you do you I also won't bid on an item that has a hidden reserve. My reason is that when the auction is over, the seller can simply state that the reserve was never reached and thus there is no sale. I'm not wasting my time bidding or watching an auction when this is possible. For me, the general idea is, if you want a certain price for something...thus your hidden reserve, then start the bidding at that point and see where it goes. The ONLY time I would bid on a hidden reserve auction is if I have built some kind of relationship over time with the seller and I have a high level of trust in them. Good luck with your auction and Happy Wurming! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck with your auction and Happy Wurming! I am not a new player or out to screw anyone, these items I have now are new to me, if you have an issue with a reserve then so be it, but I can guarantee the reserve is well below current going rates, I have no issues just canceling the auction and keeping it for myself. Thank you for your opinion, which wasn't asked for. Edited August 21, 2022 by HuhWhat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 21, 2022 You asked a question on your own auction concerning why someone felt a certain way about reserves "An auction like what?" No where did I imply you were out to screw anyone, if it came across that way I am sorry, I was simply giving feedback on the way I deal with auctions with reserves. I was not addressing your desire to have a reserve, or about you or this auction in general, I was simply talking about reserves across the board. It seems it rubbed you the wrong way, understand that was not my intent, I do wish you the best with your auction. Happy Wurming Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Happy Wurming I asked that player, not the community, so thank you, I might as well just end it now because you probably destroyed it with your opinions, thanks for that. I didn't ask for your "Feedback" Happy Wurming to you too Edited August 21, 2022 by HuhWhat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
