AUCTION |
The auction house offers great opportunity for traders
and players who wish to obtain or sell excess resources.
The auction house can be a source for much needed resources
or simply a way to sell those extra tons of goods which
would otherwise sit and decay in your warehouses. Having
a near sure source of resources available in the auction
house can allow players to opt for more radical production
solutions, such as specializing in an exclusive production
and selling part of this to obtain a general spectrum
of other resources. |
|
The rules of the auction house are straightforward.
You may trade basic resources such as wood, textiles,
stone and food in exchange for gold. You may put up
wares for bid, or you may bid on existing trades. There
is a list of available trades. You can participate and
try to win any of them by simply bidding over the current
high bid. When you top a bid, your name will appear
beside the bid meaning that you are the current high
bidder. Each trade has an expiration time shown in MINUTES
left telling when the trade closes. If you are the high
bidder at trade close, then you win the trade and will
be given the goods.
|
|
Once you place a trade, you may not withdraw it. The
product will be removed from your inventory and taken
to the market where it will remain for a day at auction.
At trade close, if there were no bidders, 95% of the
resources will be returned to you, the Auction House
will keep the remaining 5% as payment for the service.
If the trade is sold to a bidder, 98% of the money is
given to you. The auction house will charge a 2% commission
for their valuable service.
|
|
When you bid for a trade you must enter the trade reference
number along with the amount to bid. This amount must
be over the current asking price to win the bid. If you
win the bid you will own the position and may win the
trade at trade close. When you bid you must have the money
that you intend to bid. If the bid goes through, the money
will be taken from your account until you either win the
trade, or are overbid. If you are overbid, the bid money
is returned, enabling you to re-bid at full buying power. |
