YES PLEASE!!!!

im sick of idoits outbidding me at the last 3 seconds when i have the cash to outbid but outbidded seconds before is over.an auction is suppose to be about who can afford the most,not whose computer is the fastest :P


This only happens if you are trying to get a bargain. If you had bid what it was worth to you then either you couldn't win because someone else had a higher value of the item or you would win. You don't like when someone else gets a bargain you tried to get....

while it is an auction house, i would rather have the average price of all sold potions to date calculated and go to a potion shop and buy what is needed without the waiting, bidding, etc. if a wither 350 has been averaging 800k in the AH, then the shop could sell it for 900k.... prices could fluctuate in the shop if the AH remains open. that way, people who want an immediate potion can buy what they want for a premium and those who wish to find good deals can utilize the AH. both serve as gold sinks.

Mind explaining to me how they are idiots if they can out-smart you in a 3 second time period? If they are idiots i would hate to find out what you are.

and for the idea NO.

If you cant out-snipe somebody bid an outrageous amount on it. Otherwise prepare to deal with AH snipers. It is part of the game. and So what if they got great bargains during peak hours? How is that their fault they are commit and aware?

btw killer next time before calling somebody an idiot, try spelling it right. ;)

No thanks!

I never place a bid on a potion until it has less than 10 seconds to end ( ask Deemer)

The solution to your suggestion is simple..

SNIPE! If you dont want to snipe, then lose the bidding war! :P

How did I insult you? I just stated the truth in my own words. There is no way anyone should get banned for translating stuff into their own words, Now if I called you an A&^Ho%$ then maybe you could report me and get something done about it. lolz.

You do realize that every potion that is snipped takes out more gold from the game in the first place... and most snippers place a 'fake' bid in too, which again raises prices up... and you may have multipule snippers out snipping each other a few times...

Snipping potions is the main reason why they are a good gold sink... removing snipping from the AH makes it worse then turning it into an open shop...
