Auction Rules
• Bids are sent by PM, which will tag with a date/time. Please put your bids in a simple list format.
• There are no bid increments. If you want to bid $62.34 because it’s lucky, sure.
• Bids may be placed in a starting and max format, such as: $20 starting bid, $400 max. (Example: In this case, your bid will be listed at $20, until someone else bids higher than $20. If they bid $300, your bid will be raised to that $300, and still hold as highest, unless someone bids $400.01, whereupon they would be highest because it is over your maximum.)
• I put starting bids on the items that I think are entirely fair to start at. If there is no name, that amount can be bid. If you strongly disagree, send me a lowball bid and I may be coaxed to bargain, later in the week.
• In case of ‘tie’ earlier bid holds.
• There are no duplicate items, just 1 of each, so trying to buy several of a ring is out. ‘Bundles’ of items exist, and are considered a single item with multiple tokens inside. Shipping is calculated on total tokens, though.
• Updates will be as often as I can handle doing them, but at least 2 times a day, but probably more. I’m pacific time, so it will be LOOSELY around 11AM and then around 11PM pacific. I’ll update a lot on the final 2 days. Update times will be included.
• Updates and bid listing will use a fake/anonymous name that I invent for you, like ‘Quidditch @ $100’. When you first bid on any auction I will create this alias and reply to you with what it is so you know if you are top bid.

Auction ends 1/23 at 7pm PST, 10pm EST. Any bids at 10EST or beyond won’t count.
Final auction results will post that evening, but I’ll need a bit of time to process winners if there’s a flurry of bids at the end, I am not Ebay.
PAYMENT AND SHIPPING STUFF:
• Sorry International people. I can’t track those packages, so this is USA only.
• Brand new people to forums: If you are at 1 forum post and brand new, you look a little sketchy. Please limit purchases to under $100 if there’s no reputation in this community yet. If someone vouches for you, that’s different, though. Thanks for your understanding.
• Paypal friends-and-family please, must specify your alias and item(s) in the notes. Payment required before Jan 31, 2021. Shipping will be placed in mailbox by me before Feb 5, 2021. (Pay earlier, may ship earlier, though.) Cashier's check may also be acceptable, but please request this specifically.
• USA Shipping for 1-9 tokens: $4, 10 or more is $8. International isn’t something I feel comfortable shipping to right now. Sorry international people. Certified mail on request may be extra cost.
• If a won auction person doesn’t pay for their tokens by Jan 31, seller reserves the right to choose to offer to another bidder for the next bid down, or to create a new auction.

Other: Normally I’d do my trades in person at GenCon, but I know and trust many of you in this community, so I’m hopeful this can be a fun and easy auction even if I can’t see your smiling faces in person. 😊

As the Auction begins:

@Batman arrived, and has immediately made a few bids...
@Penguin appeared, but has stayed well away from Batman's choices with his bids...
@Mr. Freeze came on the scene, and pushed a few bids his way, but didn't take over all of them.

@Catwoman, @Scarecrow, @Robin and @Bane have joined the auction.

I'm just assigning down the columns of my fancy spreadsheet!

At midnight, @Riddler placed a new bid.

11am update:'s

2p @Nightwing joined
11:55p @RedHood joined

4:45pm PST:

@Poison Ivy joined the auction, adding some bids to monster bits.
@Batman returned with a volley of bids, which interacted with a lot of other previously placed max bids by others, to change up a mix of the UR bid ranks.

Also, a rules clarity/transparency:
In the case of someone holding a high bid, and another arriving that attempts to bid in the middle of that max bid but with a higher ceiling, I'll adjust to add +.01.
Example:
@Kermit bid base 50, max 250 on an item at 2pm.
@Miss Piggy, unaware of the other max set, bids base 55, Max 255 at 3pm.
The bid would become Miss Piggy at 250.01.

6:30pm PST

@Solomon Grundy arrived, taking over one bid but not hitting max on another.
