Dan F.,,,Q'tion

I bid on the big powerwasher,got a email showing my bid as 1 for 500,then I get another email from Tony Toulss with fleetwash saying rev. not meet and it was set at 4000.00 if still interested call so and so......ok...ok.understand.

Now is he talking about 4000.00 for each one or 4000.00 for all 25 as to meet rev.

Think it should be pulled as a dutch.

The guy made an honest mistake. A Dutch auction ignores the reserve price. I say let it go. But fleetwash! Stick to regular auctions. Until you get a full understanding of the Dutch.

We all know nobody would sell a new machine for 500 bucks! Sorry for the confusion.

I bid on that too but i thought he made a mistake... i did'nt know what dutch auction was either so since i am just learning this auction thing too .........im going to let him slide.................would'nt want to see anybody take a dump that bad..........

Sorry for the confusion,just wondering about the rev.4000.00 for one or all,ha.
You never know,Mark didn't think he'd sale a race car for a dallor and the next day sale one for 25,,its the chance you take when putting things up for sale,mark got smarter on the second car by placing a rev......the way I was reading it,it may be a end of the year get read of over stock time,better to get 500 than having to pay to keep them.

This is what I think,hopefully not but,I see the auction bring more people to the bbs that are not in the powerwash business,it doesn't take nothing to sign up to these bbs's as to get a password to bid or post to the bbs's...it may not be a every smart thing to do.

The reserve he set was 4000 per machine. That's why I know he made a mistake. His only mistake was not knowing that in a Dutch auction the reserve price is ignored and he really shouldn't have used that option. I think he thought it was the same as a reserve auction only with multiple items.

Regarding the registration to the bbs. You don't need to be a member with a bbs password like the other version. We just hope that people sign up for both and use the same name. That way everyone knows everyone.

I don't see a big problem yet. If we do will get rid of anyone that is none power wash people.
