Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners A Question about the auction.

Yes, you can absolutely call the guys and they can remove it from the auction if you buy it on the phone.

AMIE - "Let's say an item is listed at $250. Bidder "A" places a bid for $270. The bid increment is $2.50 for this price range, so the bid for the item will only go up to $252.50. Now bidder "B" places a bid for $260. It is not enough to beat bidder "A"s maximum bid so bidder "B" receives the notice that you have just received, and the item price will go to $262.50.

Me -Would bidder A not automatically drive the bid up past bidder B's maximum bid automatically. ??

it should, that is the way Ebay works, as do most other auction sites.

According to ebay's definition of proxy bidding , i should recieve a notification that i have been outbid if my maximum bid is lower than someone elses.

alright i got this figured now thanks for all the input. If i go to my account setting the auction i am watching will turn yellow if i am outbid. I have used ebay for years but i use a sniping program ( dont hate the player hate the game lol) which does essentially the same as ebay proxy but does it in the dying seconds of the auction .

Thanks to everyone who walked me through this. I am now the proud owner of a set of M80 v2's. Now for the waiting game. They have a long way to come.

They will be at your door before you know it.

you might even get lucky and be eligible for the free expedited air.. I would call Brent/JC and bug them about that first thing in the AM, see what wonders they may be able to work

i live in whitehorse yukon territory, i am happy they are shipping for free to here. Dont want to ruffle any feathers. Besides the anticipation is half the fun, for me at least.

Say hello to Yukon Cornelious for me.

Everyone is glad to help. Incidentally, I recently saw a travel documentary on Whitehorse, and quite frankly, the place blew me away. It certainly isn't this out in the middle of nowhere town in the north where nobody lives. It is growing, modern and self sustaining with a number of tax advantages for living there that really aren't available anywhere else in the country or even on the continent! Apparently a lot of people from the south are moving there to get away from the rat race and see the outdoors and breathtaking scenery as well as experiencing it all too.

I saw a festival there going on in the summer in which the sun was up tons of people were milling about and it was after 11PM! The only problem is, all this was taking place in the summer. What is it like in the winter time during those months when the sun never really makes it too much beyond the horizon? Interesting, to say the least.

yeah its everything i moved away from 15yrs ago and now a huge housing shortage. Really a shame ,used to be a great place to live. Now the tree hugger and bitchers come here and complain about everything and whine about the snowmobiles and plug up the roads which were never built for the traffic . And you cant camp anymore cause its over crowded. Personally i wish they wouldnt do all the advertising. There is only about 3 months when the dark could bother you and i am so used to it i dont even notice. Not a great place if the cold bothers you or not into the outdoors in some way. Also they are trying to take away those take advantages,which will really suck . This may sound bad to some but i feel strongly about this, i did not move here for modern amenities.May have to move farther north lol
