TOPIC: Super Condensed Lightning Auction 34 PYPs Funded! Order placed!

Hi all. I'm excited to run a Super Condensed Lightning Auction before the preorder deadline. Hoping to see familiar names from previous auctions and new friends from GenCon and GameHole Con.

I'm setting reserve amounts for amounts that I’m willing to pay. To avoid any unfair advantage of me having the first bid in a way, the first bidder to meet or exceed the reserve will take over as the high bid for the item at the reserve price.


Funding goal is $7,500.

Ending Wednesday, Dec 8th at 9PM EST / 6PM PST

Auction Rules

In order for the auction to be successful, the grand total of all bids must meet or exceed $7500. If the auction fails to meet the minimum, I may choose to go forward or call the whole thing off.

How bidding works:

◦ Bids should be sent to me via PM
◦ Reserves only set the minimum. The first person to bid equal to or more than the reserve sets the amount. Bidding continues as normal from there. Ie. If the reserve is $1, then the first bidder will have the winning bid at $1 until the next bidder and so on.
◦ The winning bid is the lesser of the 2nd highest bid + the bid increment and the highest bid.
◦ You must bid at least the current bid + the bid increment.

PLEASE BID ONLY IN BID INCREMENT VALUES

◦ Bid increment on items less than $10: $0.25
◦ Bid increment on items greater than or equal to $10 and less than $50: $1
◦ Bid increment on items greater than or equal to $50: $5


Once your bid is received I will send you a PM confirming it and your pseudonym. I will regularly update the auction with currently winning bids.

This auction rewards early bidding. If multiple bidders bid the same amount, the earliest bids win. Because the winning bid is set by the second-highest bidder, you can enter your top bid initially and never overpay.

Bidding ends on Thursday, Dec 8th at 9PM EDT / 6PM PDT, or immediately as soon as we reach the necessary threshold, however:

◦ If the bidder that pushes us over has multiple bids, I’ll process that entire bid list.
◦ If there are technical difficulties with TD forums within 1 hour of the end auction time all open items will be extended 24 hours, open to all bidders.

Payment is required through PayPal via friends and family. All winning bids will have 48 hours after the close of the auction to provide payment. Any unpaid item(s) after allowed time will defer their winning bid and the next highest bidder will be offered the item at their maximum bid price of the item(s).

Shipping (domestic):

◦ $5 for 10 or fewer tokens
◦ $10 for 11 to 150 tokens
◦ $17 for over 150 tokens

International shipping will be actual cost.

I’ll post a copy of the order receipt showing order acceptance within 1 day of receiving funds.

All items will ship within 1 week of receiving the tokens from True Dungeon.

Please reach out to me via PM with any questions or concerns.

Feel free to bid on any number of items for which there are multiples available, your bid will always apply to the cheapest items.

Welcome to the new bidders and especially welcome to one bidder who chose this auction to be his first foray into auctions. I'm humbled by the trust all of the bidders put in me, but especially to be the first auction someone jumps into.

Lots of great deals to be had. Some movement on prices last night, but still lots of undervalued trade goods to be had.

Current bids to beat
AR $6
PS $1
EB $2.50
EM $1.00
MS $1

For all the Grunnel Faithful, how can his UR +2 Pointy Stick still only be going for $6.25?

And for all the Bigbug err... GibGub fans ... Get some of his Handy Acorns for only $0.50 each.

Happy Veteran's Day everyone. Thank you to everyone served.

Bit quieter for bids over night.

Still lots of things well below normal for trade goods and treasure!

Grunnel says “bump”

Thanks for the bump!

Been quiet this weekend for bids. Tokens are shipping this week, so hopefully people are excited to get their tokens.

Still lots of good prices on trade goods available!

Small bump over night. Slow but steady will get there.

Still lots of good prices on trade goods to be had.

Quiet overnight again. Hopefully as other auctions close, we'll get some new momentum.

Hope everyone is having a great time and is looking forward to new tokens!

Big jump over night. Getting very close now.

Many trade goods are still very low compared to what they've been going for. Hopefully people can jump in on some good deals to prep for next years transmutes. Really good stuff coming up.

Thanks again to the new bidders.

Another jump with a few new bidders last night. Thanks again to everyone who has bid.

Getting really close now and still trade goods only going for $1.25 for things that have been going consistently for $2 in other auctions!.

Getting so close!

Lots of trade goods that are still great deals even.

Thanks again to everyone who has bid.

A few new bids came in and put us over! Congratulations to all the winning bidders.

Thanks again to everyone who bid and made this a successful auction. I know there's lots of options, and I appreciate everyone that joined in on this one.

I'll be sending out messages to the winners today.
