Hahah… I asked the AI overlords when is best time for auctions to end and that’s what it said…. Sunday nights. Blame AI.Oooh some real suspense, I'll bid when it opens 3 AND A HALF DAYS FROM NOW.
Le sigh.I declare that I bid one dollar!
I asked a couple of people if they want it free. Throwing out chips seem sacrilegious. Let them go where they’re appreciated.Le sigh.
I could complain that auctions used to be fun like this, but really I’m just thankful that they’re bland now - I’ve saved so much money.
But yes! lol.bland

Ah, nothing to do with you.But yes! lol.
I think new process is fine. After the fact I even went through the machinations to use the system to input address / pay / ship / add tracking / leave feedback just to use it to the fullest.Ah, nothing to do with you.
Back in the day (just months ago maybe?) auctions were informal, where we posted our bids. It was generally funny and fun, lots of social aspects to the bidding, etc.
They formalized the process because American adults couldn’t manually determine what “5 minutes after last bid” meant.
Diff strokes for diff folks.I think new process is fine. After the fact I even went through the machinations to use the system to input address / pay / ship / add tracking / leave feedback just to use it to the fullest.
To bring back the fun back just add a comment field to the bid field. No $69 bid should be allowed unless a “nice.” Can go along with it.
Sorry. Illegal bids can only be made to the nearest dollar. I know this because all of my bids for $69.69 are rejected.To be clear, while I can not imagine it will come to pass, this is a legally binding bid of $3.50 if all other action comes to pass, if and only if OP wants to hold me to it.
I find it clumsy at times but think it's a step in the right direction.... Some of the discussions are still good and instead of the bids coming from a user it's from bid-bot. So not that different there.Diff strokes for diff folks.
4 different pages to figure out what’s happening on an auction? The early 2000s called, they want their UI/UE back.
If I cared enough I’d gather data to support the statement, but instead I’ll just say it “feels” like they pretty much destroyed auctions for anything not extremely desired.
Go get 'em!To be clear, while I can not imagine it will come to pass, this is a legally binding bid of $3.50 if all other action comes to pass, if and only if OP wants to hold me to it.
Unfortunately you cant bid in cents, so I rounded up.Go get 'em!
