We've built a new auction platform and we could use your help testing it. We'll run a test auction tomorrow night at 7pm, none of the items are for sale but if you win anything in the sale we'll give you 5% of your next purchase up to $50.

There are a lot of aesthetic improvements in the new platform but the main upgrades are in terms of performance (particularly the main site and potentially the auction server), ease in adding additional auction sites (we'll be offering the platform to other dealers once it's complete) and reliability (I still cheer every time we go through an auction without a glitch).

Additionally, the platform is compatible with public auctions and allows for an auctioneer to specify the current room bid which bidders can compete against. We'll be testing this in the test auction too though NumisBid, being a completely on-line auction won't be using this.

Expect to see record prices for coins not actually for sale but the lure of a discount beckons.
That should certainly attract enough bids to be a reasonable test.

Good luck Walter (or should I say "good design"). If there are going to be any glitches, tomorrow is when you want them and not later.
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

Thanks, the Chat box and bidder list aren't available on mobile platforms but otherwise the live auction should work well.

not going to bother with this again, 1 or 2 people just bidding things to ridiculous levels and I could barely get a bid or see how long it takes to finalise a sale, had to attend to family for 10-15 min then by the time I came back it obviously was over.

I don't know why people bid so high, there were plenty of lots to go around for the discount. I should've put a maximum bid or something similar.
