So, I bought some CSC the other day. Figured I got a nice pay check, I'd contribute to the site even if I am more of a lurk fag these days.

I buy an because I know they're super expensive right now, and hey, maybe I can make a decent profit off of it. So I learn it's roughly 39 million in shops.

Then my dumb ass thinks, "Oh! Lets put it in auction at 1sP with 1sP increments. Maybe someone will get a 20 mil discount!"

yeah, or you know, 31 mil. sigh Well live and learn I suppose. At least I didn't spend any Real... Oh fuck.

"What is, Putting a super expensive item in auctions for nothing, Alex?" "We have a winner!"

Congrats Jen, you've now topped your previous dumbest thing on Subeta. Pats back

[edit] Turns out it ended up going for 32. something million. Not bad, not the best, but the mini heart attack/moment of self loathing was worth it I guess.

xD I saw that angelic potion in the Auctions earlier. xD How much did it end up going for? I thought about bidding, but there were too many people going 1sp at a time -eye twitch- When I saw it, it was still at like 1 hour left, and only at 7mil o:

Those auctions are supposed to be for fun, not for profit. :(

Yeah, I was one of the people bidding on that like crazy but didn't want to keep going after people totally upped the price. It annoyed me too much, to be honest.

At least you got something out of it. I hope the inflation will go down soon...

Well everything I buy from the CS is for some sort of profit. And as much fun as it could have been, I'm honestly relieved that I made some sP although I would have been happy with 15 mil. Oh wellz.

I'm confused. You said "Maybe someone will get a 20 mil discount!", but then were disappointed when you thought you were gonna get 22? But you would've been fine with 15m or 19m... I am very confused.

My complaint was that when I started writing this blasted thing it was at 8 mil :P

: Good point. Maybe I meant 10 mil. I don't know anymore. I'm on very little sleep and in hindsight this is a retarded complaint.

So someone can lock plz and I'll go feel ashamed and resume my lurkfag tendencies.

Edit: 22 mil? No. 39-8 = 31. I get it now. nods

It worked out in the end. Didn't know the auction would triple in price in less than 30 seconds :o

O_O how did that happen? If the max people can up the bid by is 1sp, and subeta never has much more than 1000 people online (and how many would be bidding, really) how did you get millions of bids within minutes!? Whoever won that auction /really/ deserved it. :o But grats on selling at a good price and making an interesting auction x)

There is no minimum SP bid limit. Even if the increments are 1sp, you can bid 10mil if you want.

The auction wasn't over when you made the board so you didn't really have a complaint so much as a PLEASE GO BID ON MY AUCTION board here, huh?

I'm happy to see that it ended up working out !

The auctions are just weird, I almost never use them because the profit loss can be so... bad, even when you try hard to make it work.

, I'm sure you would've just lived with it if you were about to lose 30m SP. This is the bragging and complaining board afterall. I would thinking lose such an amount of SP is worth complaining about any day.
