Welcome to the S.A.S. Falcon, built by yours truly with help from the fine people of Crucia.
Now as the name implies, The Falcon is the host for a live auctions that are set to take place this week on Saturday, the exact time will be worked out closer to the date. However I bet you are wondering how and where in minecraft this takes place. Well the exact coords of the Falcon are x=-1185 z=+1495 if traveling that distance is too hard be aware we are connected to the Nether Network. If you don't want to travel via the nether then you should know we are right by the pvp wall and are also just a short swim away from the Wizard Tower.
Time to get down to the nuts and bolts of this whole operation, what The Falcon offers is a chance for people to sell their items to the highest bidder. During the time between auctions we allow people to place said items they want sold in one of our chests or as I term them 'lots' for a small fee of 2 emeralds. It can be anything you want, you get a whole chest to put up for auction and only for 2 emeralds how easy is that! Our only request is you have this fee paid for THE DAY BEFORE THE AUCTION! On the upside, if on the day your said lot doesn't sell, then you get half of the fee you paid reimbursed. If you want to enter an item into our auction just let me know ingame OR send me a private conversation. If you still can't get in touch with me then feel free to ask any of the other Crucians and they will be willing to help I'm sure. :D
Some rules on the day of the auction, you must be prepared to pay for any lot you bid on as it is required that you pay BEFORE THE END OF THE DAY!If you are unable to pay for the lot then it automatically goes to the next highest bidder who has 3 DAYS to pay for the lot at the amount they bid at if they so choose to still buy the lot. Not only that we ask that during the Auction you keep this thread open as it will keep a list of the contents of every lot. (As it may be hard to explain ingame if the chest is packed with random items).
As for collecting your payments for your auctioned items come in any time during the week as it suits you to collect it and hopefully enjoy the fruits of your success. One last note, if your lot didn't sell, or a bidder backed out and another buyer hasn't stepped up , you'll need to collect your items within the next 3 DAYS and you can collect your reimbursement sometime during the week vefore the next auction. Finally for this bit, the auction will only deal in emeralds and on occasions diamonds, in this thread it will be stated what currency is expected to be used to bid on a particular lot. So there will be no going between the currencies.
Now that thats out of the way here is the exciting stuff!
At each auction we have two very special lots, the contents of which provided by the members of Crucia.
Our first lot is what I call a blind bid! What happens is Crucia members donate objects to the chest, which could be anything at all even a kettle of fish
but the contents remain a mystery to all bidders! So people bid blind hoping for a good lot and the winner gets to announce the contents of the lot to all the other bidders, so they can see whether they missed out on something brilliant, or avoided a nasty mess!
Our second lot is our special item lot of the week, again these are items donated by members of Crucia, however the quality of these items inside are much greater! This lot is not a blind bid and the contents shall be announced closer to the date. However generally you can expect, enchanted books, tools, weapons, armour, rare items and materials of great quality! This is likely to be the best lot of the auction, as such it will always be the last lot of the auction! So save those diamonds.
The proceeds of these two lots will go towards the ongoing growth of Crucia!
Well I hope you enjoy these auctions, if they becoome popular they will likely be held once a week on a Saturday, being aware though that if the auctions aren't popular or I am low on time they may be cut back to once every two weeks. If you can't make the particular set time for the auction, don't worry as I am planning a way for people to bid if they can't be present. If you have any questions please try not to post on this thread and just shoot me a pm as this thread will be used to keep track of the lots in each auction.
Yours truly
