If you set the autobuy to $35 you should honor that price instead of letting normal bids go $20 above it

I did not expect it to go higher than that haha ,__,
the bids were placed overnight actually so I was a bit surprised when I checked the next morning, but I mean >~< I just feel like it'd be unfair if I stopped it a few days before the set deadline just because it was over 35 :o

Personally, I think it's unethical to allow the bidding to go over simply so you could gain more profit. An autobuy is supposed to be used as the highest selling price. Maybe I'm just naive but I don't understand how that would be unfair -- they're spending more money when they could just use the autobuy and the design is guaranteed theirs.

Yea I know it seems that way but I really didn't even see the bids haha D: the last one I saw was at 1000 points and it stayed that way for hours >~<'
I'm not letting it go over for the profit haha, I just feel like changing the set date to favor anyone I suppose seems unprofessional?

Sort of like taking back a contest if too little people enter or .. changing the date because you assume no more people are entering? If that makes sense :/
I suppose the way I always saw it or learned I guess from picking up things from the way others did it, was that autobuys were basically when no one else has placed any bids so you could be gambling because if you autobuy for the set price, you have the chance of paying more than you might've if you bid?

But if you started the bid and ended up paying more I guess that's the loss when you don't autobuy :o
then again the case could be you end up paying less if you bid and no one else does so I guess that's the gamble..?!
I hope it makes sense ^^;
I do hope I don't come off as if I'm doing this on purpose! I never know what to price the autobuy at since sometimes the final price is anything from $7 to $90 even when I put the same thought into designs x__x haha
