I submitted a Maximum Bid of 603,288 Flezz on an Auction (which at the time was all of my Flezz). The Actual Bid showing was 248,873 (with the note that I was ready to bid up to that Maximum Amount. Apparently, the minimum reserve was not met for the Auction, so my money was refunded. But Kyoubai only refunded me the 248,873, not my full Maximum Bid.

That’s a ‘Flezz Sink’ of  354415.

I’ve already sent in a Bug Report, but this is to warn the rest of you to watch your Spendfriend accounts closely.

I’m also curious if it was really 603,288 that didn’t meet the reserve, or it was the proxy price of 248,873.

I thought about that as well. If the reserve was, say, 600K, then both the seller and I missed out of a good deal.

I think that whenever you spend enough for it to say “[Will spend up to  600,000]” [Which is a broken system in itself], that it only takes out the  200,000 from SpendFriend and waits for someone else to beat that  200,000 bid, then it bids more of your  . [This is just a theory, I haven’t actually looked into it]

This could all be fixed if they just made it to show how much you bid, no matter what. Or just fix the bidding system, maybe make it to change your bid to whatever the reserve is whenever the bidding is over.

Don’t think you can lose   that way. Have you checked Spendfriend?

I logged in as you and things look fine:

Also, before everyone panics, the OP’s bug was fixed quickly and his money was refunded. The bug report tool is sufficient — it wasn’t necessary to post this on flamebate and the blog comments too.
