[quote name='guinaevere']I did not know about a lowball chat.
I have to head out for the day now. Don't outbid me.
No really, everyone have fun. Bid well.[/QUOTE]
Not actually a lowball chat. There is always a live chat on dv8CAG.com, but it went on hiatus yesterday. LOL
[quote name='Cage017']I'm surprised I'm winning so many of the items I made bids on so far (some of them beat Amazon's prices by over 50%).
Asking as a newbie to lowball sales: Are we contacted with the total at the end of each phase, or do we receive notification once all the phases are finished? Or is it our responsiblity to reply right away?[/QUOTE]
Listed in the rules on the front page. Everything will be listed at the end.
[quote name='lowkey db josh']so its 3 bucks shipping for everything? lol[/QUOTE]
Do you know a better way to charge shipping for over 1000 items from two dozen sellers in at least 3 different countries?
If you do, I'd love to hear it. BTW, keep it simple so everyone can understand it and don't place shipping on individual items because it will kill the character limit.
[quote name='randomevent']Just to clarify, we won't know everything until ALL THREE phases are over, correct? As in, I can't pay for my stuff in phase 1 tonight if I win? I have to wait until everything is done?
Sorry, just trying to make sure.[/QUOTE]
[quote name='thelonepig']Each phase will be tallied individually, so you'll know what you win in each phase within a few hours (hopefully) of ending. I can say this because I'll be sleeping while dv8 slaves away figuring it all out.
I'd recommend waiting until the end to make payment as it'll be easier on the sellers. If you're for sure not going to bid on any other phase, then shoot the seller a PM and make arrangements.[/QUOTE]
Actually, that is correct, no totals until it's ALL over. Listed in the rules on the front page. With it ending for 3 days plus my work on dv8CAg, I won't have time to get everything edited together easily until it's all over. I will be working on it from today though... Just nothing posted.
[quote name='Big_Baybee']I was about to bid on multiple items from the same seller, but $3 shipping per item? Even if its from the same seller? I'll pass. That kills the whole thing for me and I was looking forward to dropping some dollars here. Maybe I'll change my mind, but man.[/QUOTE]
See above for the reasoning behind this. Also, see the rules on the first page stating that some sellers have already stated they will be reducing shipping. There were basically two options. #1 Have individual shipping prices listed all over the thread and make up individual rules for each shipper, color code the entire list and make every bidder have to scroll from top to bottom checking item color and shipping prices and post about 100 times in between 100 PMs about how the shipping works or #2, flat rate.
The best choice for both the buyer and the seller seemed obvious to me.
By the way, $4 possibility for a game is still better than $29.99 at GS.
