One of the prizes is Tali's mask lol


That's nothing, did you see the Tali RealDoll?


It took almost 60 pages, but we've finally managed to cross my incredibly jaded and cynical interpretation of "the line".


I'm here to help.  lol :D

Darkbyte, try starting the bidding lower...I'm sure it'll still end up at 10,000, but it might prolong the bidding process a little.

I can't make up my mind which of these situations are the most likely to be true.

1) Bids are high now, because it's new.
2) Bids are high now, because all of the people with high amounts were SURE to get on now
3) Bids are low now because only a low % of people are currently on (school/work)
4) Bids will be low at night because this is US only, and so many will be asleep.
5) Bids will be high at night because the people with a lot of tokens don't sleep anyway, and want to be sure they win.



This man speaks the truth.

I used to work in a toy store back in the TickleMe Elmo day ...

That was a level of hell I have yet to redescend to.


Similar here, save that I worked at the toy store when Pokemon cards first became the rage, and man that holiday season sucked. So few booster packs, so many angry parents...

I hope to hell that when they make the contest for the excluded areas it's not something like this.

Alright, everyone settle down. This has only been the first few hours of the auction. If we just wait we might have a chance at the crumbs leftover on Friday or Saturday.

Keep dreaming... do the math...

There are only 418 prize packs...

How many people do you think have more tokens than you?  

If you have <9k tokens (like me), then I'm guessing the number of people capable of outbidding you are more than 1,000 (probably way over a thousand).

How many auctions will occur where at least one of those >1,000 people aren't willing to spend their tokens?

Will you be watching, and bidding on, that particular auction?


Our only real hope at this point is that BioWare will decide to do something to alleviate the bad feelings the Bazaar is generating.

My suggestion to BioWare? 

After the auctions are over, allow people to convert their unused tokens into BioWare points (at a decent enough ratio to make people happy) so that they can spend them on merchandise/DLC/whatever as a reward for participating. 

Yes, this would end up costing BioWare a significant amount of money, but if people are able to get a ME2 mousepad (or other BioWare branded farkle) for their tokens, you'll still get some advertising for your money, and you'll have a happier community.

I've got to admit, I'm having as much, if not more, fun reading this topic than following the auction. Good luck guys, and hang in there. :)
