Sorry to everyone who is in favor of “dibs” for the part I played in making a fuss about it…I was cranky when I posted that! Though I do admit I’m happy about the private IDs – I hope they do that on the PYO auctions from now on. It makes it much more fair for Windstone and Nambroth.

I kinda like to see who is bidding. I may feel bad for outbidding them, but it wont last long π and it does not really keep me from bidding.
December 29, 2006 at 11:58 am #520589I love the private id. That’s great. Now if I had the money and manage to win (not going to happen)then people can’t get mad at me. I love it.
December 29, 2006 at 12:07 pm #520590I dont think anyone would get mad at you for winning! That would be silly! Whoever wants it most, who has the money to back up that want, will win. There is no reason for someone to be sour because they didn’t win. well…they may be sour for a little bit, but eventually something else will snag their attention. Now we wont know who wins unless its someone on this forum who lets us know π Oh well. I can see why it was done, I am just not sure it will be necessary in the future. There was alot of interest in this one, so I think the idea was genious.

I kind of agree with both of you on this one… Keeping the IDs private will ensure that no-one refrains from bidding.
On the other hand, I do like to see who bids and who ends up with a piece and, like Ski, I have no qualms about bidding against one of you! π
But if doing it this way means that more people bid and that Windstone and Nam get the full value for their pieces, then I’m all for it!

Well, for some of us, it wouldn’t have made a difference anyway… My ebay ID is completely different that my Forum ID, but Skigod, Nirvana and several others I just can’t think of right now, have the same ID on both venues.

Ah. Yes, that too. *chuckles* The folks at Windstone are in it for the money, after all.
True dat.
December 29, 2006 at 6:05 pm #520594it’s at $226.00 now! Go Nam go! π I knew i wouldn’t be able to compete so I’m enjoying watching the price go up now LOL
December 29, 2006 at 6:09 pm #520595I swear, people on ebay don’t know about pacing themselves!
December 29, 2006 at 6:09 pm #520596Still, I wonder how Cheryl is doing? I’m routing for her! *grabs pom poms*
The private ID is probably a good idea though, but I agree with both sides. All is fair in forum and ebay and I don’t hold grudges, though I’ll be the first to admit I’m a bit of a sore loser sometimes π³

December 29, 2006 at 6:46 pm #520600Anyone wants stats? High seller for Nam so far was the Shimmer Griffin at $405.00, but we have been starved for her stuff, so I guess it might go higher…
Not bidding (I only collect dragons), but watching eagerly!
GO! NAM GO!
