hi
A reply came from Luftrum about last night's "Avenger"

Luftrum said "I do believe the list is correct though...." and that "nitpicking"
he even did not even check the facts.
Is Luftrum really a shop?
He said "nitpicking" to paying the money.

And…
Yesterday, hhuang 9611 reply to me, as soon as I pointed out the mistake, he disappeared.
He seems to have paid in silence afterwards.

This is charity.
So I was putting a big amount from the beginning.
But, afterwards, little by little,To him who came to "buy" as cheaply as possible, I was stolen at the same price.

Is there such a terrible thing?
It is surprising that you can show ugly things so far at the charity site.

Everyone, I want you to donate feelings to me.
(For example, a gentle word :_(
I had a so bad time.

We supposed to say we paid here also?

Tantra + expansions paid (last night)

Anyone happen to know if the demo is the same download as full version? Be nice to get downloading while waiting... looks like will be great fun to play with!

yah, was an expensive night,
but won Mutable Instruments Plaits, Elements and Rings ... going to make a huge different to my rack, very excited.

Payment made, and forwarded to Luftrum.

Thanks to Luftrum for generously organising this each each, and also to all those that generously donated so that we would have something to bid on - great job all. Looks like another successful year, and money going to great causes.

Made my payment, but messed up on adding the extra for PayPal fees.

I won AudioThing Effect Bundle @ $100 but accidentally added the PayPal fees as .03 instead of 3.00 - So I sent a second donation of $5 to cover for my error :D

Looking forward to getting the effects!

Payment sent and email forwarded for Unfiltered Audio Zip and eaRevolve.

Also, thank you for organizing this each year.

Luftrum said that he can not do anything because hhuang 9611 has already paid.

He said there are 115 other important mails coming up, and after that there has been no reply.
Luftrum has no ability to apologize properly.

I reported here soon, but he ignored it.
Luftrum is no responsibility.
Luftrum does not confirm.
Do not you think it is awful?

Sir, I am so sorry about your situation. And as for me “disappearing,” well, I didn't disappear. See this post I have made after you made your point.
hhuang9611 wrote: Thu Nov 01, 2018 12:23 am Yep...I was just trying to explain my situation, so that I can start transferring funds.( Would be a hassle if a problem come up after I donate the money)

I am sorry about your loss Mr ns_Clyde. I guess an official avenger sale of $170 will come soon. Also, the normal price for 2nd hand avenger is about $130... Hope that might help
Also, the reason I did not talk more about this mistake is that I can see other people's reaction to this matter and I don't want to flood this thread with arguments...
Also, in your analysis, you switch the order of bid constantly, (but I am not going to analyze deep into this) and unless we have a history of what 1st post looked like every time... It won't be easy to retrace everything. (Another thing is I recall Luftrum sometimes updates bid "backwards", meaning from most recent post to older ones. There might be something going on somewhere, but it's hard to retrace)

Anyway...I am really sorry for you sir. But I didn't just hide and pay secretly after mistakes were found. At least to my knowledge, all bids I have placed, I placed them carefully. Why did I pay nevertheless? Because I might be traveling soon so that I had to make sure I got the transaction done as soon as possible. And as I mentioned in previous post, there are others chances you can get avenger cheap.

I am really sorry if you feel I took your place...

Tracing back through posts bidding for VPS Avenger, it looks as though there was a short period when there were three $150 bids in place and then two $160 bids quickly came in. I would assume that yours happened to be one that was displaced by one of those $160 bids under the top-to-bottom rule.

The moral of the story is, if you don't want that to get knocked out 'randomly', bid a bit more than the others.

Paid and forwarded email for Loomer Complete Bundle and Bastl Thyme.

Big thanks to Luftrum and almost everyone not bidding on my products. :-)

It took me 4 years and lots of "new posts available" frustrations to get where I'm today with the Loomer Complete Bundle. Ha ha.

Post

Those who missed a winning bid, why not email the dev to see if they'll offer another license for your bid amount. Can't hurt to ask. They've already showed they are charitable by participating :wink: Same issue came up last year, but I'm not sure how many actually took the initiative.
