I like the idea, although it could cause a lot of confusion.

 

I too have actually thought about this recently. I think it would be a very good addition so long as the player makes it extremely clear

 

I like the idea however I can already see it confusing players.

 

Everything is confusing, that is, until you learn how.


I think this is a grand idea, and will create some friendly competition :D


I have problems selling my items some times, this way i can get my stuff out there if someone asks :D

Would also be great if i need an oddball item or two.

 

Great idea.

My main question is this: if we do this, would we then be forcing them to buy at the won price just like a normal auction, no matter the result?

 

I'm a little bit confused... So the bidder voluntarily bids a lower price...?

 

OHH I get it now! Too bad I do features free, as do a lot of people. But other than that, +1! Lovin the idea!

 

So wouldnt that be like you starting a eff4 pick at 20k, but people want it cheaper so they down bid that price, if this is what your talking about i think it would be great.

 

You can set bid increments to like 500 so people dont dropp the bid to like a 5k item and they drop it to 500 just to troll.

 

No no, as in, your sitting there in your cozy mansion and your like "I want an eff4 pickaxe." So you go to auction and say "Reverse auction, Eff4 Pickaxe, starting at 8K" Then someone who wants to sell their eff4 pick would say "8K!"

Then someone else would see that and be like, "Hey! I want to see my eff4 pick too!" So they go "7.5K!"

And eventually if the price went down to 5k and no one wanted to sell their item lower, you'd go pay 5k for the item.

 

I have thought of this, I knew the second you said reverse auction that it was with feature, regarding all players that are confused, you would have already have t have donate so I hope the player would have an idea of what was going on.

 

Great idea! Perhaps a separate chat would/could be used to avoid confusion.

 

I love the idea. The only problem I see is that people are greedy. If someone wants to pay $200 for something, I don't see people offering to do it for less. Again though, great concept... I unfortunately just don't see people following along.
