I'm not so sure what's funny about your bidding Dark Demon

Fire starter, can you evaluate the offer of Dark Demon's nutcracker in coins so I know whether he outbid me, and if so for how much, please...?

[Rumi]

7gc

[DARK DEMON]

[font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]Heated nutcracker with 2 tokens, 3 gold, 4 silver[/color][/font]

[font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]I believe this outbids Rumi.[/color][/font]

[Fire Starter]

I can't see how that outbids Rumi's offer, when you haven't stated which the tokens are, so we can't really evaluate them and set an estimate prize.
Thus, your Nuts is derogated at 3gc. It's up to you to change the price... or not

And before complaining read the Rules first.

[DARK DEMON]

[font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]I believed so because you said the earlier Nutcracker by Maebius was worth a little over 3 gold.[/color][/font]

[font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]Mine has 5118043 h[/color][/font][font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]eat, 388 age and the tokens: [stardust] - [claw2] [/color][/font]

[font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]Is it still worth 3 gold?[/color][/font]

[Fire Starter]

As we stated in the updated rules since the last Auction, we determine the prize.

Any "assumptions" from bidder's side can only lead to unwanted results, especially if made in public. We risk our Auctions to serve as referrals in future trades or similar situations. And I am not sure this is the right thing to do, since this isn't a direct trade. We are talking about unique art items here.

I am really struggling to make the rules more clear every time, so please, if anyone has questions, first come to us before going on with public conversations like this. First, this turns as spam in the topic, and second, you risk your bid to be derogated on purpose.

Now, from all that is said, having also the facts about the value of the tokens (their price and availability), the Heat and Age of the creature aren't much related too, so... hmm I see a possible spoiler, so [color=#000000][b][font=georgia,serif][size=5]~DD~[/size][/font][/b][/color], you know what I am talking about.

In short - you're still a bit behind Rumi's bid, DD.

[Fire Starter]

A bit late, but until the BHC is over some time delay will apply.

So, Congratulations Rumi. You're the newest winner in our Auction. I will find you when I am able to move in the mainland.

[Rumi]

Thanks so much! I'll find you when I have a chance to get online.

7 Gold coins received as payment. Neno Veliki is proceeding with the goldening process.
