Buying Answers
How do we know if the item or
character we're interested in buying is being sold by a
GemStone IV Auction Place salesperson?
All GemStone IV Auction Place salespeople will
have a
next to their username on the item details page.
Are your character and
item prices negotiable?
The items and character being sold or auctioned by
GemStone IV Auction Place salespeople are negotiable. We
try to price things as cheaply as we can, so in some cases
we won't be able to drop the price any lower than it already is.
Do you accept trades for
your characters
and items?
We're always open to trade offers.
Why have some of the
auctions been cancelled by the seller?
There's a few reasons why a seller would
cancel an auction. A few of them are - the character or item being
auctioned may have sold elsewhere or the seller may have decided not to sell the
item.
Why do some of the same
items and characters keep reappearing?
When someone bids/buys an item or character
it's removed from the active auction listings. If the buyer doesn't come
through on their end the seller can relist the auction on the website.
Another reason that this could
happen is that the seller cancelled his/her auction listing and then decided to
sell it again at a later date.
The auction I'm interested
in only has a cash price. Can I still pay for it with coins?
The seller may be willing to negotiate, but in
most cases an auction that is only accepting cash payment will not accept a silver
payment. You do have an alternative though. The GemStone IV Auction
Place will convert your silvers into U.S. dollars which you can pay the seller
with. Our exchange rates are based on the pricing scale located at
http://www.gsauctions.com/sellsilvers.asp.

The statistics of an item or character
being auctioned seem strange to me. Are you sure they
are accurate?
All characters and items being sold by the
GemStone IV Auction Place have had been examined closely by GSIV Auction Place
salespeople. The item/character descriptions, stats, show descriptions,
etc. are to the best of our knowledge, accurate. If you have a question
regarding a character or item being sold, you can click the hyperlink of the
seller's name on the item details page and send the seller a question.
Selling Answers
I see where I can
auction my characters from, but where do I go to auction my items?
Currently, the general public cannot auction
their items on the GemStone IV Auction Place. We'll be reviewing how well
the character auction service has gone at the end of May 2004. At that
point we may open up the item auctioning capabilities to all GSIV Auction Place
users. Characters can be auctioned at http://www.gsauctions.com/sell.asp.
Why do some auctions have a cash
and silver price and how does each work?
Some characters and items are being sold for
either cash or silver. This means that the seller will accept either type
of payment for the character or item they are selling. Once the auction
has ended, it will be up to the buyer and seller to finalize the payment
terms. This gives both buyer and seller a little more flexibility than
forcing everything to be strictly cash sales or strictly silver sales.
Sellers do have the ability to create an auction and allow only one type of
currency to be used as payment.
I want to sell silvers. How much
will you pay?
Current prices can be found at http://www.gsauctions.com/sellsilvers.asp.
Couldn't I make more money selling my
silver on eBay?
In most cases the difference between selling
your silver to us or auctioning it on eBay is negligible. By selling
your silver to us you save yourself the aggravation of dealing with
fraudsters, the time it takes to find a seller and actually sell the
silver to someone, complex auction submission forms, etc. Our silver
buying process is extremely fast, simple, and safe. To see a profit
comparison of our prices versus selling your silver on eBay, visit http://www.gsauctions.com/compare.asp.
I don't want to liquidate my account,
but I do want to sell an item or two. Are you still
interested in buying them?
We're always willing to look at anything you
have for sale. Visit http://www.gsauctions.com/liquidate.asp
