12 Jul 99 - 05:22 PM (#94498) Subject: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: Max Hi all. Thinking all weekend about the auction and with my lack of a real life I was fooling around with some stuff. I developed a prototype of what I had envisioned. You may all go and play with it if you want, but it will not be real until I announce it official, so don't expect your items or whatnot to be really for sale. Feel free to play and fool around all you want. You can see it at: http://204.108.149.156/threads.cfm Let me know what you think. Also, Bert's coming over tonight, we might be in the chat between 6 and 8pm EST or so. Later. |

12 Jul 99 - 07:24 PM (#94544) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: Bill D hmmm...looks neat...but it seems to allow under-bidding..(I can see the price actually decreasing on some things);>] |
12 Jul 99 - 07:27 PM (#94545) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: Barbara Say, great, Max -- I can get to the bidding page! Now can you help me get back into chat? My old link just sits there and hums, does nothing. Would someone repost the chat link? Thanks Blessings, Barbara |

12 Jul 99 - 09:05 PM (#94581) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: katlaughing Looks great, Max. Would suggest always having either a picture or detailed description of the item, too, ala eBay. Sorry for my ignorance, but before I bid on it, I'd really like to know what Rick's old "Lowden" is!**Big Grin** kat |
12 Jul 99 - 09:59 PM (#94599) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: CarlZen Max - I'll bid another twn bucks if you don't tell anyone else what a "Lowden" is. |
12 Jul 99 - 11:12 PM (#94625) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: katlaughing And, here I figured it must be the place a bear sleeps when it gets really hot out; the Highden would be for those cold times of hibernation, right? |

13 Jul 99 - 01:37 AM (#94660) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: Max It appears that something has gone wrong on Jah (the computer I developed this on) and I can't tell from home here. Can't seem to do anything about it till I get in, in the morning. Sorry all, but it is just a prototype. working on it.... Try again tomorrow, I need feedback. |

13 Jul 99 - 06:09 PM (#94872) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: Bill D liking the look...and already wondering how the logistics would work if one wants to donate just a portion to Mudcat..."It's Just My Silly Way of Tithing.." |
13 Jul 99 - 06:36 PM (#94879) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: Mudjack Great Max, It looks like it should work OK, I hate to bring up a subject of "RULES" or protocol. We might need some ground rules and/or spell out the logistics of how the transactions will take place. Such as when does someone send the money and when does the seller send the auction item. Our little attempt was purely on the "honor system" and is OK when we all stay on the up and up. When Rick's guitar goes on the block and sells for $12,000 plus, who sends what first etc. The server tool looks great and thank you.... I think we've got it, let's just make it go. Mudjack |
13 Jul 99 - 06:37 PM (#94880) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: Max This would not work with any other web site, but we are going to use the honor system. We will just have to hope you send our cut. |
13 Jul 99 - 08:07 PM (#94901) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: SeanM Actually, ebay runs more or less on the honor system. The repercussions for welching on an auction in any form are basically being banned from the site, as well as whatever form of recourse the offended party wishes to pursue. We're all family, here. Don't see why that wouldn't work for us as well. M |
13 Jul 99 - 10:09 PM (#94937) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: Margo Hooray! I got in. It's great. I bet you'll get plenty of support from the auction, Max. Margarita |
14 Jul 99 - 02:20 AM (#94986) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: MudGuard Today I got in using the http://jah.righteousness.org/threads.cfm URL today!!! I have one suggestion: can you display the time somewhere on the auction list? For us not living in the EST time zone (wherever that may be) it is not easy to know how long it will be till Midnight EST... MudGuard (formerly known as AndreasW)

14 Jul 99 - 12:11 PM (#95107) Subject: RE: Max has a new toy, check it out. From: katlaughing eBay has a place where buyers & sellers can comment on one another & then they get ratings of a certain number of stars, which gives one a quick idea of how trustworthy they are. I don't think we need that right now, but if it gets big, you may need to think on that Max. Thanks, Mudjack, for letting the lowden out of the bag. Sorry....I shoud've known that's what it was. kat |
