Ok Lets get this sorted out finaly (I hope) due to the DT / USA times etc the bid will now close on Sunday 16th May at 20:00 eve time.
You are bidding for the Gallente Taranis Interceptor BPO Prod Lvl 2.
Bidding will start at 250m with 1 already received for 275m (see below)
Bid will close 15 mins after the last bid received after 19:45 (eve time)
Please make your bid known on this forum
Happy bidding

Any longer than 3 days and you're wasting everyones time.
Even then, all the serious bidding will take place on the last day.
Consider making the auction for 2 days, 3 at the most.
Ensure that you give a clear cutoff time (in Evetime) and possibly state that any bid within 30 minutes of the current highest bid is still valid (and obviously resets the 30min timer). This may extend your auction by several hours, but will discourage sniper bids and can only increase the value of your sale.

Ok Lets try again....
Bid will last close on Friday 12 Noon (Eve Time). The auction will continue until there is a gap of 15 minutes between each auction.
i.e. if a bid is made at 11:58 then the bid closes at 12:13 (unless a bid is made during these 15 mins then it will increase by a further 15 mins etc).
Thanks for all your help in getting this set up

Do NOT end auction during week days as LOTS of players are US based. You will lose many potential bidders (me including) who are working on Friday @ 8am EST (East Coast time).
End auction on Saturday and make sure not at 12 (as it is early for weekend) but some more reasonable time, like say 18:00 eve time.
My honest advice.
Edit: Just learned:
Wednesday 12-14
Thursday 11-15
Friday 8-12
Are scheduled downtimes which will most likely take out boards server as well. Extend auction to saturday evening.

I must say it is very sad to post a bid with your own alt to get more ISK.
Then again the 130 mil increase isn't too trustworthy now is it.

Nice way to put a damper on your corperation by alt boosting.
BTW why would Die Hard so to say bump your thread then he'd have to be an alt of your or someone seeking profit from the BPO itself. Surely its not a bidder because well more people don't see it the better for them.

Omg this is an absolute OUTRAGE and a SCAM!!! I was gonna bid as well, Lord Solo using your alts to bump the auction just shows the type of person you really are. 
Props to Alexei for catching you on the act.

I am not scamming, i have the bpo, if people dont want to bid then thats fine. I have had several private convo's and emails asking me to sell it to them outside of the auction and for a hell of a lot more.
So I repeat if you dont want it dont bid. People will only bid what they think its worth so there is no point in me trying to put false bids in.
If i dont get a good price on Sunday then fine i'll cancel the bid.
The BPO will be worth a lot more once the next patch comes in.
Also, this bid has nothing to do with the corp im in. I got this from my R&D agent.

heh this happens all the time at auctions - EVE or not.
Its always the mysterious "phone bidder", who is very active at the start and stops bidding once the reserve is met.
I wouldnt be trusting the "OK the bid is now at 550mil sir - received by private eve-mail." in other auctions either.

Not foul play, but 'play' where most people dont want to have any buisness with.

Worst. Excuse. Ever.
The biggest question that I have is how you thought that noone would notice if you changed it, you left it up for like 3 hours. Then posting with an alt the same thing that you'd edited out less than a minute before?
Its one thing to try to scam an auction, but doing it so poorly is almost insulting.

As I understand it the auction will keep running till nobody bids within the 15 mins after the last bid (everytime the bid is "raised" by someone else the auction is extended by 15 mins).
Currently my bid is highest untill 15 mins are over or someone makes a counteroffer which is higher.

Lord solo and this auction are ridiculous.
After this thread he made a channel and it was just me and him. i told i offered more then the 400 mil.
He eventually replied he had to go take care of his kids. I told him to enjoy his BP and left the auction.
this is by far the worst auction ever and lord solo the worst businessman in Eve.

The whole auction from start to end was a facade, a lie, fake and smelling funny... He then gets an offer by only 1 person and when that is the highest he will ever receive he then thinks: "Thats not what i had in mind, 1 bil is my reserve." Makes up a story to not log on for days...
Now ask yourself, kids or no kids... Who would want to do buisness with anyone like that? Game is supposed to be fun, people ******* around with you isn't my perception of fun.

Talk about getting ****ed on this this bid. I had started the Onlive bid but then one of my children had an accident and I had to tend to that.
Anyone who believes that the game comes before your family is really sad. I did have 3 bidders but I could not continue as previously stated. As i now seem to have a bad reputation I will not be selling this for a while (until the dust settles).
And god knows why im on someone KOS over this I will never know.
