Well, it isn't perfect yet, and it will probably never be pretty, but it's up. And it's free. I've told everyone I'd try to get an auction site going that is similar to my JABA site for a long time now, and it's finally up. Here's the URL: (URL) (...)

Looks like it will be cool. Also looks *very* much like EBAY. Is it just the particular program that is used to make it?? Ryan (...) (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) Hrmmm... kinda. I added a couple of EveryAuction add-ons that are designed to make it look more like eBay. I personally don't think eBay looks all that great, but it is what a LOT of people are used to, so I guess it makes sense to make it (...) (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) I hope this helps you; It looks like bidding is off, if I understand bidding correctly. Someone, on your test bid, named ladym (Mookie?) bid something like $4000. Current bid is at $42.80. I bid $125.05. I lose the proxy bidding war, but the (...) (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) Actually, that's the way proxy bidding should work, IMO. Equal bids go to the earliest bidder so the first bidder should only have to meet, not beat, a challenger in a proxy war. Doug (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) Hmmmm....well, then I won't mention that I got it to do it the other way, too. I think it has to do with what the bid is, perhaps it is legit. I'll take a look at it again. Ciao! (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

I'm really selling this, mint/near-mint in box. If the system shows any glitches, I might pull it and offer it elsewhere or offer it again after the problems are fixed. (URL) it out! Mike: How's that? A real auction! Ciao! (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

One small nit, you have a direct image link to Lugnet so you need to grab that image and host it elsewhere. WE all see a frowny. (...) "God made the integers. All else is the work of man."

(...) Yup. I'll have to include something in the item preview page about not setting up direct links to Lugnet. It should have showed as a frowny on the preview page as well. I know it did for me when I did one by mistake as a test recently. (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

OK, I posted an auction. Feel free to bid but it's not for real (there is a reserve price, in the dollars, for a single 1x2 brick). However I don't see it when I refresh the "new list"... is there a lag on that? Also I had a deuce of a time getting (...) (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

Also, when you post a lot your conf says "as confirmation of your bid" instead of "your lot" There is a lot of funkyness with the fonts, that's for sure, the same line of menu options is different font styles in different places.

(...) I ran across that too. I'm not sure who, but either it or I put a dollar sign in one of the BID fields (would be nice if it said which bid fields). Also, I tried it without a decimal (00) and it didn't like that either. Ciao! (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

The way this script seems to deal with things is that it literally regards your initial posting of an item as a bid (note on the bid list that (...)
