hey when do you think to add feedback features?

And do you think to add an incremental bid like ebay? i mean that i place my MAX bid and the system automaticaly place my bid when someone place a bid (less of my max bid)?

And another one, to prevend private trade, it's better have a system to hide the bidder name and don't use it userid to send the notice message/pm :P

In the ACP i think that add something more about control of auctions and bids, now we can only delete it, not delete only a bid or edit the auctions.

And there isn't nothing to ask something (like a forum/comment) about item :P

BTW it's a GREAT mod ^^

Blaine,
thank you this feature it kind of works on vb 3.7.0 RC4
I like where redfoxy is going and would like to see that I would also like to see when you rename it that you can change everything vbay does not work as a name for my site.
I can drop some coin for additional addons just let me know shoot me a pm.

Sorry don't want to read through the whole thing. How do you know what was the ending price on the auction? How do we maybe code that into the ending auction code?

"Hello, I am the High bidder on your auction, but I did not surpass the items reserve! Please try posting your auction again at a later time. Ending price was 35.65"

OR something like that. Anyway of doing this? Or is there a way to see what the ending price was?

[HC.]

willing to pay for this as a premium mod please let me know
