Lot 6 is closing!!!!! I'm waiting until Most of Lot#6 clears before I start selling off Lot #7.

Looks like the current players are cash-strapped. Surprise Rule #3 might help that but please try to do your best to get more players involved in the game! It's more fun with more players!

Lots 6-8 have three special "surprise rules" to keep things interesting. Surprise #1 - The 5000 gp bonus to new players has been extended through Lot#6. Invite your friends! Surprise #2 is still a mystery but will be known while Lot #7 is on sale. Surprise #3 will be launched in Lot #8.

New Rule: Three Objects originally included in the 170 items will no longer be sold in the Auction. They will be replaced by three "surprise" objects. The first object, parchment, was replaced by "Can of Spam." In Lot #6, the scroll has been replaced by Pandora's Box.

Everyone involved in the Auction has a current "credit" of 25,000 gold pieces (each) :D except the auctioneer :(

And... Kalah=0, Orfinn=2700, Echo_=3440, DaemianLucifer=3490, Gaidal Cain=5200, Vlad976=7900, wimfrits=9500, Banedon=13000, Sir William S Titan=13780, Fyl=16150, ThunderTitan=23150, Tao Jones=23560, a55a55in=25180, and Pepak=29500. (Does not include Lot #6)

Bids begin and go in minimal increments of 10 (Treasure and Item), 20 (Minor), 50 (Major), and 100 (Relic). Please offer or raise more than the minimum.

Lot #6 is open!
