Selling a Very Massive Exotic 8x/15x/15x. Planet Effects: Rings This is a auction and will end exactly four days from this post. Opening bid is 10k CTP and each bid must increase by 1K CTP. ICTY = Additional 1500 CTP It is VL as of right now but I will make it VM once it is sold.The reserve is 22.5K CTP. The auction will extend by two hours after the last bid of the auction to prevent sniping.

Why not either start at the reserve or at least tell us so we can waste less time?

Aren't the point of reserves to be hidden... Otherwise whats the point of opening the starting bid at 10k and then openly saying that even if you bid that you won't get the planet.

I don't get the point, why not just start at your reserve rather than jerking people around? If his reserve is 50k, start there. If someone wants it, they will bid. A hidden reserve like this also gives the owner the opportunity to renege on the deal and claim the reserve wasn't met. At least with an auction site you choose the reserve, and even if hidden, you can't change it. Here, it is just an opportunity to have second thoughts.

I think the point is that more people are likely to start bidding when it's lower, and then to keep bidding when it ends up higher than they would've started. I only saw them allow a reserve once on Auction Kings, but they did it as a hidden reserve as well.

This did not meet what I wanted for the planet so I'm sorry to all the bidders but I will not be selling the planet. If however you are still interested you can still PM me.
