I've just completed our new live auction room system at: http://www.numisbid.com.au/Auction/ and I'd like to give it a test run before our April auction.

So at 7pm, April 1st we'll be running another test auction. Same rules as the last test auction, whatever you win you get free, limited to one coin per bidder. The catalogue will go up on the 31st, there will be about 10 - 15 coins, most from the $10-30 range.

If everything goes well, we'll be introducing this new (and hopefully faster) live auction system into our April auction.

What do you mean nothing happened? You didn't receive the confirmation e-mail? The page loaded blank?

Goldseeker have you had any luck registering yet?

The idea is to bid during the live session at 7pm Monday night at:
http://www.numisbid.com.au/Auction/

as I am trying to test out the new live auction functionality and how it performs under load.

and don't forget that time may be different for other states so its 7pm edst

brain strain what is the chat box for? who sees it

Yes thanks for reminding me, 7pm Australian EST. Anything you type in the chat box is visible to other bidders in the room. Each lot comes up in succession awaiting bids, it goes once, twice, then sold like an actual live auction.

trout: I wish I thought of this a month ago, I had 6 spare Canberras in the last auction. At the moment I only have a proof Canberra spare, I'm ummm....not sure if I can find the time to list it up in the test auction. ;)

It goes to a live auction where people can bid on each lot as they come up. A bit of a thrill.
