Title: Blank Giant Project Pony for Auction *ended 8pm 12/15*
Post by: WeepingPiano on December 02, 2020, 01:55:49 PM: I have a Giant project pony that is in need of a new home. I believe it is a v1 and has 3 rows of hair plugs.
It does have some yellowing around the neck and a touch on the face.

Admittedly, I have not run an auction before, so correct me if I make mistakes, but -

Starting Price: $100
Bids in a minimum increment of $10

First bid - $100 - CH
- $150 - Private

Current Bid: - $160 - CH

Pony was won at a bid of $160 (with an ebay style max bid in reserve had the bidding continued)

It is quite large, so I am setting shipping at $20

I forgot to mention! I am accepting bids until 8:00 p.m. central time on 12/15 <3

I am happy to add any other pictures anyone reasonably requests.

Post by: Em_L._Pea_Customs on December 07, 2020, 10:42:35 AM: Is there an opening bid yet? If not, I'll start at $100. Thanks! :)

ETA - Also, I had a few questions related to the auction itself. :nerdy: What time will you stop taking bids? Will you allow a previous high bidder to bid again after the time expires, if someone else bids higher right at auction's end, OR should bidders PM you their highest potential automatic bid (like ebay)? Thanks again!

That is an excellent question.
I suppose if two people are in a bidding war at the end then highest potential automatic bid would be the way to go? So that the person who bid last wouldn't feel like it was taken out from under them? I have never run a manual auction before so it is very new to me.

and bidding is open until 8 p.m. central time on Dec 15th, I will edit the original post to reflect that and the current bids.
