JamesTalon	Posted - 2006.04.18 17:43:00 - [31] Originally by: Harisdrop I believe the true benifit will be a nice item bid on the site with realistic auction. I have a question. Do you have to be ingame to bid only? You should charge for the auction like ebay so there is some incentive not for scamming. I dont know how this could be done but I would love to have a broker fee soo I know people can trust my auctions. The item gets given to the person over escrow lol Oh, and some possible improvements, if you don't have them planned already. If we've posted an auction, we should be able to update the description if theres new information. ie; Auctioned ship, don't mention anything about moving it somewhere, think about it later and then add it in that you will ship it to any of the major empire trade hubs.

Sorai	Posted - 2006.04.18 17:52:00 - [32] Originally by: Harisdrop I believe the true benifit will be a nice item bid on the site with realistic auction. I have a question. Do you have to be ingame to bid only? No... I wanted to make the site useable both from IG (in-game) and OOG (out-of-game). You have to be in-game to register; but after you register you can use your username and login to login to EVEbay from any browser, and you can carry out all normal operations (bid, list auctions, etc.). Of course you can do it from IG, too -- but you aren't forced to if you don't want to. The only time that you absolutely must be using the IGB is for user registration. Originally by: Harisdrop You should charge for the auction like ebay so there is some incentive not for scamming. I dont know how this could be done but I would love to have a broker fee soo I know people can trust my auctions. Well, feedback will contribute to this a little -- if you build a fair number of 'Yep, successful' auctions; then that gives you a certain credibility (more than someone with NO successful auctions, at least). Escrow is used to complete the transaction, so there isn't much risk of being completely ripped off by a scam (presuming you check the escrow before claiming it)... I'd like there to be more integration such that I could guarantee that the auction would go through and be completed successfully; but I am not sure how I could undertake it. -- Sorai Carbide Industries --

If we've posted an auction, we should be able to update the description if theres new information. ie; Auctioned ship, don't mention anything about moving it somewhere, think about it later and then add it in that you will ship it to any of the major empire trade hubs. I had thought about this JamesTalon, but I decided against it to prevent sellers from changing any possible conditions on the auction after it is underway (i.e. seller lists something, someone bids, and then suddenly a condition like delivery, etc. is changed out from under them). What I could do is allow the appending of comments to it -- so you get an initial comment, but you can go back and add another and another; though you don't have the ability to edit/delete previous ones. -- Sorai Carbide Industries --

True. Never thought about the downside there. Although being able to add on something would probably work better. EVEBay
Elisabeth	Posted - 2006.04.18 18:58:00 - [35] would like to see a selection button where u can switch between thousand and million so i dont have to type in mad ammounts of zeros ...
Laocoon	Posted - 2006.04.18 19:01:00 - [36] I remember the first eve-auction site. That never took off. This one seems more polished though, and i wish you all the best with it. The addition of comments thing is a good idea, and i think a sniper rule setup thing is also needed. apart from that, good luck! (and sticky ftw - the mods consider stickying something you you email them apparently. /me emails mods) Bump Channels 'Bar Veto' (IC) & Public Channel 'Veto' for info.

I got my Augoror on there, and its something I just need to get rid of. Built it over a month ago. The other one sold find, but this one just will not find an owner... That and over 40K thunderbolt heavies. EVEBay
Sorai	Posted - 2006.04.18 20:29:00 - [38] I'll add the comments to my list of things to do -- it has grown greatly over the past day (although I always expected that it would I guess ). Right now my focus is going to be on refining the site more and fixing the bug that has been demonstrated; and then I'll work on adding more functionality in. I'll post in this thread when it is updated; though I think it would be good to have a 'News'/'Changes' page on EVEbay too, that summarized the changes (i.e. a Changelog). Thanks for all your well-wishing and comments and keep the comments and suggestions coming if you have them! I'm going to work hard on making EVEbay a success, and I'm not nearly smart enough to think of all of the ways that I can improve it by myself... the more brains/eyes the better. Of course I'd appreciate any word-of-mouth spreading that you do, too. Thanks everyone. -- Sorai Carbide Industries --
Sorai	Posted - 2006.04.19 02:57:00 - [39] My apologies to those of you who were bitten by the "item not browseable" bug -- it has found a final resolution now, though -- and the auctions that you are put up are visible and filed in the correct location(s) now. -- Sorai Carbide Industries --
freek	Posted - 2006.04.19 03:20:00 - [40] Nice work as other have said hope this catches on. Is it possible to list more than 4 items per page when viewed though the IGB or a custom setting via preferences ?

Sorai	Posted - 2006.04.19 03:32:00 - [41] Originally by: freek Nice work as other have said hope this catches on. Is it possible to list more than 4 items per page when viewed though the IGB or a custom setting via preferences ? I could make it a setting -- or could raise the default above 4, but honestly I don't know if I would suggest it. The IGB is very slow often... and rendering the page might kill it even worse. Here's hoping that CCP corrects the issue soon, so that I can put the IGB per page setting the same as the OOGB per page setting (20). For now I could make it a setting, though, yes (and just default it to 4). I will make a note of it, Freek. -- Sorai Carbide Industries --
Vilaria	Posted - 2006.04.19 04:56:00 - [42] I'm bumping this because it's too awsome an idea to fall off the front page. Way better then browsing thru this forum. Crap, CCP, just replace this forum with a link to EvEbay!
Gary Forthy	Posted - 2006.04.19 06:45:00 - [43] Edited by: Gary Forthy on 19/04/2006 06:48:38 I must say that I love this site :P I will for sure use it to sell my products. And for the scam/if you can be trusted issue, I belive that commenting on buyers/sellers can solve that, but one issue with one of the previous auction sites were that anyone could post a comment, and someone went and posted bad comments on everyone :( Restricting commenting to the winner to comment on the seller and seller on the buyer would be nice. Also, adding extra info to the description would be helpfull as well as making it possibe to have a "shown" reserve (as that is what I'd like to add to my description) ;) As for a small bug: I set bid increases to 10mill on my freighter, but it seems to have been reset to 1 isk for some reason. Edit: Oh and sticky would be nice :P Gary ------------------- Do it once! And make it count! Looking for an Obelisk? - Take a look!

This is the case -- you can only mark a transaction paired with a person as "satisfactory" or "unsatisfactory", you can't just give someone bad marks without an auction (a completed one) with them. Originally by: Gary Forthy Also, adding extra info to the description would be helpfull as well as making it possibe to have a "shown" reserve (as that is what I'd like to add to my description) ;) I never thought of having a 'shown' reserve. Should be easy enough to add. I will add the option to my list. Originally by: Gary Forthy As for a small bug: I set bid increases to 10mill on my freighter, but it seems to have been reset to 1 isk for some reason. This should be fixed now, Gary -- it was a bug with the way that highest bid was calculated; should be at 10m now (for any further highest-bid calculations, anyway). Thanks for the feedback! -- Sorai Carbide Industries --
Panzer Goddess	Posted - 2006.04.19 07:18:00 - [45] I hope it catches on faster.

smallgreenblur	Posted - 2006.04.19 11:43:00 - [48] Bump for a good idea. Sticky and also ccp support would be awsome for players that put in work like this off their own backs. sgb C6 is recruiting ... visit www.c6-eve.com or join channel c-6 for details.
Brother Benthor	Posted - 2006.04.19 11:49:00 - [49] get us a sticky here :D this idea ROCKS Designer Services click me!

Spartan III	Posted - 2006.04.19 13:35:00 - [53] Was the mailing address for requesting stickys [email protected]? or was it [email protected]? stickie please --- Wolven Elite Guard - Currently recruiting
Sorai	Posted - 2006.04.19 14:37:00 - [54] Originally by: Gary Forthy making it possibe to have a "shown" reserve (as that is what I'd like to add to my description) ;) This has been done Gary; and I've gone back and made the reserve on your auction shown as that's what you'd like. It defaults to a hidden reserve though. -- Sorai Carbide Industries --
Sorai	Posted - 2006.04.19 14:39:00 - [55] Originally by: Lest Great Idea and hope it lasts :) Now my question i dont know if i missed it or not but is there a page for selling characters? if not is there going to be one added? If there is can u send me the link PLZ :P Right now that isn't possible Lest; because EVEbay is centered around integration with EVE's market database export. I'll put it on the list for the future -- but it's a fairly big request, so I cannot guarantee when it'll be done. -- Sorai Carbide Industries --

It defaults to a hidden reserve though. Thank you :) Also, just my two cents on character auctions; I kinda like how EVEbay gives you a feel of being in an ingame market, and being able to buy characters kinda ruins that a bit I think.

Clipparius	Posted - 2006.04.19 17:12:00 - [57] Very good idea - good luck with it.
