No more auctions (3 Viewers)

Aren't online meaningless likes from strangers the most important thing ever? I mean, likes > life right? Motto to live by.

Mental note: need to invent sarcasm font

C'mon man. I'm single, crappy dead end job, can't afford the Jack chips I want because people keep putting them up for auction instead of just picking a price and selling them. Internet likes from strangers are all I got!
 
I don’t blame the seller, but doesn’t cancelling an auction after a valid bid violate the rules of the auction?
 
How are bids cancelled? I didn't know this was an option. Maybe I'll want to use this option after a too-many-IPAs bid, in the future. ;) ;)
 
To clarify - The Auction did not have a valid bid since the person that had the only valid bid removed his bid approximately 1 hour prior to the cancellation of the auction.
Thanks!
 
I have seen the cancellation or change of bids in many auctions. Please people!!! If you are going to bid in an Auction you should honor your bid.
Maybe that language could be added to the auction rules?

This! Thanks for the clarification on what happened David. I was kidding about wanting to know how to cancel bids, by the way. I'd never do that, even if I make a bid and "regret it in the morning", lol.

LOL, I know we have all made a bid before and regretted it although you, like me and many of us still HONOR that bid!
 
The guy who made the bid had a shitty transaction with the same seller for a much smaller amount, can’t really blame the guy for not wanting to send thousands and hope for the best.

I don’t see anybody breaking out the pitchforks to condemn the person for retracting his bid, let alone blaming him. Although I think asking the buyer to wait 6 days until you can ship isn’t the most unreasonable request.

If it's communicated well, it's not a huge deal. If it's happenstance, I'd say that's a little long. I try and get all sales out within 24 hours, anything longer and it's a explanation and worst case date to get it out.

I blame everyone for everything. ----------E

I work shift work. Made the deal mid day Tuesday. And told buyer this am that I would ship them Monday as I am working. Unfortunately that didn't go over well so I offered them their money back. Which they eventually opted for. Which is fine with me. (I didn't even have their money yet) Sometimes I ship chips out the next day, and sometimes it takes me over a week. But I haven't had a "bad transaction" on PCF either way. :confused
 
I don’t disagree with that, either. Obviously I know very little, but it seemed like maybe it was more about how the communication went rather than just the slight delay in shipping.

And no there’s no pitchforks, but there are some undertones in David’s post which I thought deserved a little more explanation into why the retraction may have been made.

I gave you a plate of corn muffins back in 1947 to paint my chicken coop and you never did!
