Have you been a Numisbid winner today?

How long does it take for bluesheet to update .Numisbid is saying that the bluesheet value on this coin
is $230 but bluesheet actually lists it at $100

    https://numisbid.com.au/Browse/NumisBid_Auction_@63/Five_Cents/AUSTRALIA_TYPE_I_1972_Five_Cent_40215

I think that it all depends on when the coin was listed.
Maybe this particular coin was listed a few months back and has only now made it to auction and has the old valuation attached to the listing.

   The bluesheet value has never been over $100 for this coin

The Blue Sheet prices in the NumisBid listings are based on an more updated algorithm which we'll be implementing into the Blue Sheet shortly. The higher Blue Sheet sale price is due to a $150 eBay sale.

Regarding postage, that's no longer automatically added, we calculate postage manually after the sale rather than automatically to eventually make way for giving buyers more choices with postage options (which we haven't done yet).

I went ahead and paid the invoice on Thursday using PayPal which is my preferred method. I wonder what will happen next.

I'm probably just missing something, but in numisbid is there a way to search for particular coins or sort upcoming auctions into coin date or coin type order?

I think that feature might have been recently removed.

Thanks for that :good:, I thought it used to be there but couldn't see how to do it now.

[wwwww]

We've had to sacrifice a few features in order to speed up the site, the previous version was starting to get very slow. We'll work on improvements in the coming weeks.

Thanks Walter. I can just imagine what it's like when you are trying to allow the auctions to perform as fast as possible while some users are doing other things that would impact the database and web servers unrelated to the auction itself. (Such as retrieving and rendering other queries).

What happened next was that I received another invoice for $8.50 on Sunday night (notified by email) which I paid this morning. Incidentally, I did not receive an email about the first invoice.

They're actually on separate servers, the NumisBid site has its own dedicated server but the login system is shared.

Your invoice should've been attached to the $8.50 email, we only send one invoice out and that's sent at the conclusion of the sale. The amount listed in the email is just the balance owing but the attachment shows the full invoice.

i prefer the old layout
1) as the text size and layout is larger and much easier to read
2) the new with the screen refreshing and disappearing is disconcerting and unable to keep up with the bids!! and if my bid has registered.. no dilly  dallying allowed !

cheers
