extra life [ENDED] Extra Life 2022 Charity Auction: Nintendo Switch Lots (Bid now, Live Auction @ 3pm EST Saturday Dec. 3)

[Gloves | 11,776]

This is the Nintendo Switch stuff!

Like last year, a few fine folks have donated some great stuff to help raise funds for the kids! If you don't know what I'm talking about when I say Extra Life, check out the main thread here: 

 

Check out the Megathread with all of the auctions linked for reference here:

 

 

Some notes:

• All auctions have both a pre-bid AND a LIVE auction aspect to them
  • From today until the Live Auction starts, you may bid via Private Message to me, Gloves
  • Once the Live Auction starts, the threads will be locked and the Live section will take place on Discord
  • When PMing me, provide the highest you're willing to go in bidding, and that bid will be used as your bidding for the Live section
    • e.g. if you bid $100 on a minimum bid $50 item, and Live bidding goes up to $80, you will win that item!
• All winners are asked to make a donation directly to Extra Life with their winning bid and a note on what they won (Extra Life Donation page: Douglas Glover - Fundraising For Extra Life (extra-life.org))
  • Covering the fees on Extra Life isn't required, but it's nice if you can
  • Extra Life will send a donation receipt for taxes to your email later on
• Shipping will be covered for all items (if not by the donor, by me personally)
• Rules are subject to change with notice in the thread; I'm human and just doing my best to raise money for the kids, so bear with me if something's not clear, and feel free to ask any questions you might have!

 

Lots:

• Bids are in USD
• You can bid on as many lots as you like; let me know which lot(s) you're bidding on, and the amount of your bid
• New bids must be higher than the current minimum/highest bid
• If multiple people bid at roughly the same time, the higher bid counts as the new highest bid
• Remember that there is a LIVE AUCTION on Discord which will continue from where the thread leaves off at 3pm EST on Saturday December 3rd!
• I won't be a stickler on specifics, but round increments would be nice (e.g. bidding up by $5 from the last bid)

Apologies! I mistook how it worked last year. Going to do a quick update here. 

Turns out last year the bids for this were private, and you provided your "highest bid", which would act as an active bid during live bidding. I'm not an auctioneer!

Pup explained it to me so I'll update the threads now, sorry for the confusion!

Just a reminder everyone - we'll be starting the auction in Discord at 3pm EST, which is just about 15 minutes away! 

If you can't join the Live Auction and want to place a bid, please PM Gloves as possible, but no later than 3pm.

There is a channel in discord called #extra-life-charity-auction where we'll conduct everything.  Thanks!

Alrighty - sorry for all the bumps here, but the pre-bid portion is over.  The live auction is happening NOW in Discord.  We'll start with the Switch Lots, then the PlayStation Lots, then the Retro Lots.  Thanks!
