[Auction] Stone (2 Double Chests)

Hello,
all of the digging I've had done to build farms in the SMP5 Wild Frontier has lead to a surplus of stone for me.
Therefore, I'm going to offer some of it to someone else through this auction.


*Note: I haven't attempted on doing an auction for over a year.

I do not understand. Why can someone say the starting price in an auction and not increase it like the item(s) are supposed to be?

Also, I made an error on the ending time, and I can't change it because this is an auction thread.
I wanted to say that the end time is:
12 Hours after the latest bid.

1.6k
Is this better?

Yes.

This auction is now over. Latest bidder, pay me 1,600 rupees if you want the stone, and I'll get the 2 chests ready for your access at my residence (address: 10087).

Wow. I am surprised because normally a DC of stone goes for 3k to 4k.
I just paid you.

I was alright with the starting price. It look my less than an hour to get that much with efficiency V, silk touch diamond pickaxes and a beacon providing haste II.

I have paid. When do you think you will have the chest setup for access?

I marked the target chests with torches in my residence's garage. When I get a change, I'll enable access for you to loot the stone inside. Then I'll most likely send a private message to you when you can start the shipping.

Thanks!
