I have a question to the auction rules, that was not mentioned in the guidelines:

If I win an auction, do I have a sales contract with the seller, like .. at ebay, wich means that the seller had to sell the good to me, even if he likes the end price or not?
There a serveral sellers that starts an auction and set the auction end by themself in their description ( like it ends 24 hours after the last bid). 
They get bids.. the auction ends .... you never here from them again... Angry

Are there any rules for this? Are there any trusted forum members caring about this?

yes unless the seller set a hidden reserve price. you know about ebay so I guess I won't need to explain what a reserve price is.
but there's also nothing stopping a newly made account from disappearing if they don't like the end bid. unlike ebay, you don't need to verify your paypal and credit card info to make a new account here. so avoid threads made by newbies if you don't want that to happen.

P.S
ignore my post above I've reported it. forgot to add the last bit and I can't edit it.

Any thoughts on https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/my-auctionpuzzle-concept-discussion-thebutterzone-1141637 ? I only read the OP just now after un-ignoring the Auctions board, and maybe I can't hold the auction here the way I envisioned it.

I got a question. say I only have BTC1 on my wallet and bid that exact amount on an auction, is it against the rule to bid another BTC1 while the first auction is still running?

It isn't against forum rules. I have seen such bids and there was no problem. All you have to do is pay the money if you win or loose it by not paying. Anyway, I suggest you not to bid if you don't have enough balance as we can't be sure whether you will receive the amount or not.

alright, thanks.
of course, I wouldn't bid unless I already have that much money in my wallet

Nice sticky Cheesy

One thing i should point out tho, tried recommended counter but it doesn't seem to display correctly.

It only seems to display the top bit of the gif and doesn't refresh.

Auction ends: Sunday, 16th March, 2014 at 8:00pm


Any alternate counter you can recommend?

Cheers,
QG
