Question about Gold Auctions

Yesterday morning I put about 103k in coins to bid for 1 gold. No one sold it to me for that price :(

Today, I see that the bids are at 110k per gold. My bid doesn't show up in the active listings anymore, so does that mean I just lost 103k?

    I think shows you the history of the last 10 transactions buying or selling.
    From what I gather theres an element of guess work involved as to what people have put their sale price in. I've never been able to figure out how to work it so I could be wrong XD.

    Try looking in the postbox for your refunded cash, thats where failed auction bids get sent. Otherwise you should be able to withdraw it from the Auctioneer.

    Try hitting the button Listing (I think that's what it was). It should list all the offers/bids you placed so far. If your bid has not been accepted yet you should be able to delete it (with the Delete button somewhere at the bottom).

    Hope this works for ya

    No you haven't lost your money. You can cancel the bid, I'm not in front of the game right now so not 100% sure of the tab name. Something like "Sales".

    BUT you do lose your 2% tax, which I find really annoying. I have found from my limited experience over the last week using the gold trading feature, that you need to bid 110,000 +.

    Hope that helps.

    I put my coins in to sell below the average of all sell prices and never have an issue trading.

    The "listing" menu will show your current bid, and allow you to delete and start afresh.


    Best of luck.

    It simply means you are no longer one of the top 10 bids. I assume that when you looked at the bid list they were all above 103k. If so that just means that your bid is somewhere lower on the list below the point that everyone can see it. When the orders of the people that offered higher amounts get filled you will see your bid on the list again.
