That’s where the proceeds are going to, yes.

But not the income.

People are currently interested in the most auctions leaderboard. These buys are completely intentional and made by characters with an overabundance of flezz. Enjoy it while it lasts.

It’d be really nice to have some way to keep track of auctions you bid on.

When I place a bid on an item that is lower than the maximum bid somebody else has set, their bid does not increase to beat mine. At least, I’ve encountered this problem on at least one auction.

This is problematic for a few reasons:

1) It’s confusing. eBay doesn’t work this way, and really everybody’s expectations about how “internet auctions” are supposed to work are based on eBay’s proxy bidding. I kept bidding the same bid over and over again, to see if this was a bug. If your max bid is 200,000 and I bid 100,000 the current high bid should at least have to beat 100,000.

2) It removes the opportunity to use the auction house as a griefing vector.

3) It’s open to abuse. Any person on top of the flezz board could win any auction at reserve price by bidding more flezz than anybody else in the game has.

4) Not punishing people for nuclear bidding is full of fail.

It’s annoying but understandable, in the end the person with the mist Flezz should win.

There needs to be a toggle to specifically find auctions with a buyout.

Yes I noticed this too. I put a high bid but got beaten with a lower bid. The “maximum bid” seems to only work for the first bidder I think.

The person with the most flezz should always win, but only when they are willing to part with a sizeable portion of that flezz.

As it works now, if the min bid of something is at 10,000 flezz and that person has a maximum bid of 100,000,000 flezz, then they will get the item for 10,000 flezz because nobody else has more than 100,000,000 to bid. Both the seller and the other potential buyers ought to take exception to this.

Also, input fields should really accept numerical input with commas. If I want to set my reserve at one hundred thousand flezz, both “100000” and “100,000” ought to work.

Everytime I bid and don’t bid higher than the maximum someone else has bid, it does increment the current bid by 2x whatever the minimum raise is. So with your example and just guessing the increment might be 2k it would show like this:

 10,000 (thier max  100,000,000)

 12,000 (your bid, even if you entered  500,000)

 14,000 (thier new bid and the new current price of the item)

Current price should have gone up to  500,000 though.
