Biopanda 2675 Posted February 7, 2017 This is something that Val and I have talked about quite a bit and is actually the reason that we have the "ghost bid" system currently. It's a bit of a tough subject since both ways have very valid reasoning behind them. As it is right now, I tend to play off of the audience when I'm choosing the items to put up. If I know that I've got some people in the stream who are big into tapes, then I'll toss a couple of those up. This also lets me be a lot more flexible since I can go with the flow of the stream... so if the people that are currently there aren't feeling VHS or w/e at the time, then I can switch it up with something else and not be "locked" into doing a bunch of tapes/VHS with little or no interest. 1 rekzer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrenGun 2261 Posted February 7, 2017 I actually only want to go for 1 CD. you know which one. But I really don't have time to watch all streams until the end (because of my night job). And I prefer to bid in real time than doing a ghost bid on that one. So I don't know if you could pull in that one somewhere when I'm there? XD But still maybe there could be special tapes/vhs/DVD stream? And that the normal streams maybe contains a few of them, but kinda 99% only CD's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I generally try and put up items that I know people are specifically waiting for when they're there, so I'll certainly try! If there's enough interest and we're able to source enough, then we would love to do special mini-streams for stuff like that. Last time when we got a giant set of 100+ demotapes and did a demo-only mini-auction, that went over really well. Unfortunately big sets of demos/VHS/DVDs rarely come up anymore nowadays, so we usually don't have enough to do a whole day's worth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrenGun 2261 Posted February 7, 2017 Well you also can do a first and second part. kinda 2st part only demo/vhs/dvd and second part CD's But hopefully more people are up for it ^^ and who knows there will be a big demo/vhs/dvd order someday again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is why we do ghost bids. You can try to make it to catch them live, but put in ghost bids just in case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We had a few people miss out on stuff they really wanted yesterday, so don't forget to message/email us your ghost bids!

Gaz 1097 Posted April 5, 2017 so due to a bit of luck and some persistence i received my package but guys, seriously, you need to be more professional. THIS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS FFS. not only you sent the package to my old address and i had to go to old postal office and begged them and bribed them with chocolate so they will call me when it'll arrive and won't sent notification to my old apartment, but also you specified destination country on the package as 'Croatia' lolol now i see why it always said Croatia when i checked the shipment status. but all's well that ends well and now i'm just really happy about this nice and shiny NOISIA tape <3 ;w; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valicious 572 Posted April 19, 2017 (edited) Details of our next livestream auction are up! A Time of Visual Kei: a $1 auction for the rare and wonderful In an unknown murky darkness, there exists naught but deafening silence. Ages have passed, and only a few whispered stories remain. These stories tell of a time of magnificent music glowing with a light too blinding. As Time continued its eternal march however, the light became harder to notice and the music less distinct. What once was something beyond the Earthly and mundane had faded and blurred until one would be hard-pressed to find any evidence of what once was. But legend also tells of a time and a people who can bring back the light and sound fantastic. Is the time foretold fast approaching? Will you help bring back the music? ITEM LIST: COMING SOON All days start at 11AM MDT/1PM EDT/5PM MST SATURDAY AND SUNDAY JUNE 3-4 SATURDAY AND SUNDAY JUNE 10-11 COUNTDOWN: https://tinyurl.com/myljjvu Link to 2nd Weekend: For those of you joining us for the first time: We continue our trend of giving away crazy amounts of VK just for showing up, this time with even more prizes. (like a truly insane amount) Nearly all items start at $1, so this is a fantastic opportunity to get your favorites for dirt cheap. During the stream, we'll allow people in the chat to buy items as they appear using our automated bidding system. There will be a starting price displayed on the stream for each item and if multiple people want the item then it'll go auction-style and they can bid up until someone caves and loses out on the rarez. A list of specific items will be posted as the date of the stream nears. We will be accepting "ghost bids" from those who cannot attend the actual event. Ghost bids consist of the desired item and your max bid, we will then bid on your behalf up to your maximum Edited April 19, 2017 by Valicious 1 rekzer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valicious 572 Posted April 20, 2017 (edited) In an effort to normalize shipping times for both our end and in customers minds, we are creating a policy that customers will receive a coupon for 10% off their next order if we take longer than 3 business days to ship.

Valicious 572 Posted May 1, 2017 In some unfortunate news, store updates will be on hiatus until further notice. Val got hit by an SUV yesterday and, while nothing is broken somehow, she is not able to work.
