**OFFICIAL AUCTION QUESTION THREAD**
« on: May 17, 2011, 11:37:00 PM »
I was just checking out the new listings in the auction forum and noticed that I had a PM while I was there.  When I tried to reply it isn't allowed from that forum.

This seems vaguely familiar to me, but I need to be retrained every year.  Others may want to be aware of that and keep it in mind if you are trying to ask the lister a question, or maybe trying to partner up with someone on the bidding.

  BTW....I think we need to have a Auction questions thread so I changed the title.  I also think the members could help answer general questions for new folks wanting to participate....so lets run with this thread...Terry Green

Sorry for being a little not awake & otherwise untrained but does this mean that you can not PM anyone from the listing?

Rob....call me on this....call my cell when convenient.

I know it was an issue last year cause folks could not contact others about items they won...cause their emails was hidden and they couldn't PM them.

Thanks.....

So it's the first bid after 9:59 not the last one before 10? Guys, a lot can happen in those last 60 seconds  :bigsmyl:    :archer2:

It was a good move to eliminate the nickle and dime bid jumps to have fun, but made the tally a nightmare.

I think being able to PM folks back and forth can add benefits and obviously, Admin thinks so too.  Just another token of how they do respond to input from the rank and file.

Thank you Terry/Rob for being responsive!

Thanks Terry! I've got my donations listed, my St. Jude's cash counted, and my shopping list highlighted. Sniping lessons anyone?

Will we be able to edit our pictures in our original posts once the auction starts?

Rookie here..

Just looking for clarification on ending times.
I understand the 9:59pm EST cut off each night.

Do the forums close on these dates...?

Forum #1 / June 1
Forum #2 / June 2
Forum #3 / June 3
Forum #4 / June 4
Forum #5 / June 6

Thanks
