status-resolved Wrong decision made by Amanda- Sstick.com

[omelet]

Here is the post:
https://www.namepros.com/threads/sold.1051655/#post-6457934


@Silentptnr posted $1

Later, I posted $5 bin before the auction finished.

I wrote "bin" only because seller updated the title by including information "Bin 5"

Later, I and seller contacted each other and about to finish the deal.

Then, @Amanda came in with the statement:
"The BIn was never updated in the thread or in the original post. At this time the winner is Silentptnr. Please contact each other and finalize the details.
Thank you."



I personally really shocked by @Amanda decision. My $5 offer was submitted before the auction finished, and I had the right to submit it. Even though seller didn't update his Bin price properly (he didnt update in post, only updated in the title), my $5 offer still the valid offer.

Let me ask you, if I wrote "$5", rather than "$5 Bin", does that make any difference? Obviously from @Amanda perspective, "$5" is valid, "$5 Bin" is not valid.


I dont understand. I think her power is abused.This doesn't make any sense for me.

Plus, @Amanda never responded me. I don't understand too.

She made the decision, she refused to listen my explanation, she closed the post, and she claimed game over.

A real Rape.

Nobodys fault? If your going to play with real money, you better know the rules.
The rules state, must be updated in opening post and thread.
The selling member didnt do that, its their fault
I checked the thread, all information is deleted.
Another sad thread

In my opinion, its nobody fault. Let's auction this domain again !

I agree with you. As per rules you are right. I take back my words

Now the best way is to re-open the auction

Because:

Amanda has problem.
Seller has problem
The auction has problem

Come on guys, don’t f*cking repeat mentioning the rules. All the rules are designed and explained by the stupid subjective people

Pretty sure you're not going to get a sympathetic ear from the mods and/or admins after calling them all stupid

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

No sympathy from nobody, go cry elsewhere. Sad

Should’ve said you made a typing error and meant to type $5 “bid” not “bin”

Too slick Keith.

I am with Omelet. If a 5$ offer was made within the auction time frame that should be a valid bid. Regardless of the phrasing.

Doesn't work. Improperly adding bin does not alert other bidders. This opens the door for cheating.

So what? Then dont accept the BIN, its clear he was willing to pay 5$ and his bid would have alerted you as you already posted in thread.

Why should he loose the auction because seller made a typing mistake?

So in this case omelet didn't do anything wrong. Except both sellers and bidders need to understand the rules and what is valid and not valid.

As you said he did nothing wrong but got the short end of the stick. Seems like a strange decision.

This is not a playground nor a place without rules that protect people. This is a professional venue for domaining. There is no gray area. The rules are clear.

I have bid in auctions only to have them cancelled for rules violations or whatever. The rules are enforced here to protect everyone.

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

Rules were meant to be followed
This is happening less and less
Personally i would have seen the bin was not updated in original post and would have dm the op and told them, with my bin
But, i know the rules
It will be auctioned again, when/if @Silentptnr decides to auction his name

What ever. You the one buying 1$ domains. I am not the one on the playground.

If you think you are being fair, then by all means I have nothing more to add.

I don't see how the decision could have been any different. The rules are the rules. If I had been the one who made an invalid bin post, I would clearly know if it was invalid and I would yield to follow the rules. Simple.

That is a rule, I learned the hard way also, but it is pretty clear to me now that the original post has to include the BIN Price, as it is the original listing ad.

SIlent learned this the hard way not to long from what I saw also...

Also, if the situation was reversed, believe me, this thread would have read, "Why Have Rules If They Don't Matter". Right?

This issue is over as far as I see.

A 5$ offer was made within the timeframe of the auction and it was top bid. Who cares what letters where written after the bid. You saying rules are not followed. I say minds are not used.
