    This is a pretty nice system, however I would recommend that you take the "Bid History" column and have it only display X amount of bids then a "see All bids" links, this way the column isn't consuming so much space.

    --Thanks!

    what about the premium access? Will that be put in place?
    Would be a great feature on dp!


    Oh yeah, placed a bid without any problems.

    edit: and received an email that I was outbid.
    Nice!

    New sales can now utilize the bidding system if you want (when you tag a new thread as "WTS" you should have extra options). I'm gonna leave this auction open as a testbed for now.

    BTW - Premium access is already in place (see this thread).

    When someone use the BIN, is it going to be linked to a Paypal account or will it just end the auction?

    Plan on doing that at some point, but right now we aren't collecting PayPal info from the seller, so need to start doing that first.

    The bids are automatically applied, but the seller can reject any bid for any reason they want.

    I deleted the first bid, so that's not what you are seeing. But you *can* outbid yourself if you want... serves a purpose (maybe you trying to get up to the reserve price for example).

    What I meant was that if during an auction, a bidder wants to withdraw his bid, will it be allowed?

    if yes, then how....does he have to contact the seller or a moderator?

    No, the only way to withdraw a bid is to contact the seller and ask them to reject the bid (but it's still up to them).
