For the times you bid on something and end up not needing it! or decide you dont want it.

Don't waste the money and hit cancel bid and get your money back!

that would be nice

In theory is a great idea, the problem is to implement it in a way that people dont abuse of it.

This are the reasons:

1. When one place the bid, the previous bid go to the Transport and is returned to the original player. If they put an option to cancel the bid, and someone cancel, then the price will go to the original one, and people could use that to buy items at lower prices: imagine if the bid started at 1 lant.

2. Even if they keep all the bids to go only one step back, people could bid, for example, 50 lant for something and then change to another char and bid for 20kk, or something that nobody else overbid, and at the last moment, they could took away the 20kk bid and go back to their 50 lant bid, making people be able again to buy items for a real low price.



What i would like to see, is a way to add lant over the previous bid one made, instead of go back to the Transporter when someone overbid you, and place the lant back.



(Edited): The only way, i can think atm, in wich this could work is if they make the items in the Auctioner locked after the time expires. After the time end, instead of go to the transporter, it get locked, and players arnt able to bid for it anymore, then the owner of the item must accept or reject the offer.
