Thread: premium auctions?
is this skill working at all? i tried to use it and all it seemed to do was charge me more money...is there something else i have to do different to get it to work? i have never seen any other auctions that looked highlighted in any way.
No kidding. It seems so far that the premium auction is simply your average auction at a premium price. Never have I seen an auction that stands out or is significantly marked in any way. I'd say that unless someone answers with a real answer to your problem, do not use the premium auction option. Tried it once, tried it twice, but not another time since.
They work great.
It charges a premium for the auction, but you item is listed higher then and previous auctions. A normal auction gets cycled in with the mix. A premium is always listed ahead of the others, until a premium auction is added after it, and then it is bumped down one.
I use premium aucitons on just a few items, mostly I use creative naming and sell where there aren't alot of other items.

Premium options cost 5x as much to put on the bazaar and only give you a tag people can sort by. If they also let you selling things for 5x or 10x as much, then they'd be worthwhile, but they don't, so there's no reason for them.

they should raise the bar of max prices on the bazaar....ya never see rare items on the bazaar cause noone wants to sell stuff for 3k
