And now you've closed the auction and jacked up the price. Usually these types of actions warrant negative trust.
Hi. Your bid still stands and I might accept it if there are no other bids for that domain.
The reason why the price is higher now is because previously there was no set price, just a minimum starting bid of $30 to get the auction going. But, clearly the traffic here doesn't justify an auction of this size so I had to create a regular listing instead.
An auction doesn't need to have a set price, but it does need a minimum price. If someone bids more than the minimum bid, that bid is valid, and if no one bids after that, the first bidder wins.
The last minimum bid was at 30$, you cannot suddenly change that price to 250$ and open another thread, completely ignoring the last bid.
If the domain doesn't get sold to dogeditital for whatever reason, I will leave you a negative trust rating.
BTW, move this thread to "digital goods"
Hi there, I wrote in the auction listing at the very top that I reserve the right to refuse any bid at the end of the auction. Which is standard approach if the bids do not meet the min reserve price.
I did not ignore the $30 bid, sorry if you got that impression. I noted it and as I said if no one else bids for that domain I will consider it. Although arguably selling that domain for $30 would be very generous.
You are of course free to leave a negative feedback if you want. Again though, I haven't really done anything wrong
I read the prior listing, and it does say that he reserves the right to refuse any bid. So, you're going to give him a negative trust rating for what? If he refuses a bid, then he is being honest, right? He is keeping to his word.
I didn't say I was going to leave negative trust. It's not the right of refusal that I had a problem with, it's the fact that people through this method (s)he used, can 'fish' for interest, cancel the auction and then jack the price up ten fold knowing the bidder put their cards out on the table already. It's not a huge deal, but if these were his/her prices in mind, (s)he shouldn't have put $30 minimum bid.
