    Do you ever see items in auction that you want?

    Hai ecc, this is teofilovic, bringing you a guide to winning auctions!

    First of all, always do /ch auc then /ch g when you get on the server so you can see auctions. Then, do /auc info to see if there is an active auction.

    You will want to keep an eye on the chat at all times to see if an auction has rolled in. When you see an auction, prepare a bid. This bid should be not so high that buying the item isn't worthwhile, and not so low that people can easily outbid you.

    Ignore the 30 second warning. The 10 second warning is what you really want to pay attention to. When you see this 10 second warning, start a countdown in your head. Count down 6 seconds in your head, then place your bid. The reason I say 6 is because you don't want to trigger the antisnipe, which happens if someone bids after the 3 second warning. This antisnipe will add 15 seconds to the auction, in which someone can easily outbid you. If you pulled off this step right, your bid should have been placed right before the 3 second mark. At this point, unless someone triggers the antisnipe, the item will probably be yours. Make sure to look at the message to see who won the auction. Hopefully, enjoy your new items!

    After the auction, you might be able to sell your freshly won items for a handsome profit. It's an odd job, but that's not saying it doesn't work.

    As always, this tutorial is not meant to troll in any way. I have confirmed this with 7amoodw.
