Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

Wow. I feel really strange right now. I guess the person who tried to win the quad auction just opened a BYC account and just contacted me and said tht they were the one that bid against me on RBA. Then went on to ask if I'd be breeding and selling because they're interested in them. The only way they could know that is by looking on here because my RBA name is different than my BYC name. Wasn't sure how to really approach it without sounding too angry.

Oh, that's kinda creepy and disturbing!!! Unless it's someone who happens to lurk here and happened to see this thread... The odds of which seem really slender. On the other hand, they almost would have had to have found this thread since didn't cj actually "win" it? Did you ask him/her how they got your contact info?

Am I confused? Was there another auction.... there are so many posts about auctions on RBA.....

WOW - Some people have nerve. Im sure there were several on here who would have liked to have them, but we do not bid against one another.... Friendship and ethics.....

Nope it's the same name tht outbid me and tht CJ outbid. It's really strange. I just said that I couldn't respond properly because it would sound angry and mean but that we don't take kindly to people who wait until the auctions end to try and steal it and I was extremely lucky to have someone that was watching my back.

I don't think I'd be angry. Just because they bid against you, they wanted them too. Otherwise, I looked at the auction, there were several people from BYC that bid on those birds. If your's wasn't the first bid of someone from here, then you were bidding against people here too. I don't think you can really call "dibs" on an auction, otherwise they would just all be "buy it nows".

It's nice that people here look out for each other and share their eggs, but really maybe someone else here wanted them as much or more.

I think if the auction was for ayam cemani, I'd be hard pressed to sit on my hands during an auction (unless I knew whoever got them was going to share with me................yoo hoo...........CJ"

I'm not angry that they bid at all. I just think its shady to wait until the very end of the auction to bid. If you're really that interested bid with a day or even an hour to go, not t the last minute.
