Have you been a Numisbid winner today?

[ausproofs]

most painful auction ever!
love getting stuff but hate missing coins because I couldn't get a bid in

I agree, lucky Walter restarted the system ... else would have been more painful...

What did you miss out Serial ?

Yes it was pretty Crappy but Walter is overseas and he did the best he could do in the circumstances.
You are probably unaware but  The reason he is overseas is because he has just lost his Dad, So some tolerance and understanding should be warranted :ok:

Yes Trout, I agree... however Walter being overseas had nothing to do with auction being slow... The system is struggling with the demand now.. it needs to be redone to meet the demand.. Walter said he will do that before the next auction :yahoo:

a few things, but what really made me cry was seeing the ms66 72 5 cent go for $25 and not to me I would have paid way more for that coin but you roll with the punches.
what really concerns me is that one day I will need to sell stuff myself and I was hoping to use numisbid rather than the likes of iag or ebay. I even go out my way to promote them including the re-distribution of the mylars they send me coins in to other budding collectors hoping they will latch onto numisbid instead of ebay
however if I was selling stuff tonight I wouldn't have been happy with the systems bugs affecting my results and I truly hope Walter can iron the bugs out quickly. I am more than willing to volunteer to help should he need to run a mock auction.

I agree about the 72 five cent.. I wanted it but didn't get a chance to bid... never mind... oneday I will find one..

I sold some of my coins today and yesterday.... it wasnt too bad, but I lost a few hundred from one and gain a few from another.... so all good.. I got some bargains too... overall happy...

well its good that you evened out plus you have the added benefit of getting some good deals.

Yes, thats true... some days you get good prices for the consignments... so its a gamble... what I find is when I try to sell things on ebay, no one wants it.. put it on auction, people go crazy... :angel:

I have a 1962 PR67 3D no one wants at the moment.. I will put that on auction soon.. then people will hopefully bid like they normally do... funny market !

[serial]

problem you have is the last one sold for $276
I am guessing you expect more?

[ausproofs]

Yes, but not much more... almost all other times they go for over $450 + ... Other occasions much much more... just the day..

[trout]

Yes Trout, I agree... however Walter being overseas had nothing to do with auction being slow... The system is struggling with the demand now.. it needs to be redone to meet the demand.. Walter said he will do that before the next auction Yahoo

So its just a matter of upgrading and "Tweaking" the Servers to keep up with the increasing popularity of Walters site that is needed :good:

Looks like either Walter is back in the country or AC is back on the job as my auction wins have been posted

I am a little concerned tho as both of these people have had a pretty bloody rough time of it  over the last couple of weeks`.
I know you are both "Troopers" but  take it a bit easy on yourselves.
No rush and no hurry you guys, take some time to heal :ok:
