That's right, I'm selling all my holdings in the Sugar and Spice province. This includes three tiles around Nara and five more tiles between Yokohama and Nara.
I'm doing this so I can get rid of most of my worldly posessions here and begin a tour around our great Fanatika. I feel that our greed and materialism have taken control of the game, and that the wonders of our great land have been forgotten and taken for granted. The money earned from this sale will be used to buy supplies for my journey, and anything left over will go into savings, probably to be loaned to friends or to build a home or some such.
Besides gold for my travels, I am also looking for one Mountain tile, preferably on the coast, to use as my home. That is the only land trade I may be interested in doing, so if you wish to throw a tile like that into your bid, feel free to do so.

I'm just trying to get rid of this unneeded land simply and quickly, so I'll be selling the tiles in two bunches. You have to buy all the tiles in a lot. I won't be selling them separately.
First Lot: J-6, I-6, and I-7
Second Lot: L-4, L-5, L-6, M-5, and N-5

See the Sugar and Spice map in the above land thread to see the tiles that are available.

For how much?

Hi Veera. I like all of your tiles. How much are they? And, I've got 3 mountain tiles by the coast. 2 with gems and one with gold. Would we be able to work out some kind of a deal? Actually, the tile I don't like as much out of the ones you own are the mountain, and the tundra. Maybe we could work out some kind of a deal like, tile or tiles and money for tiles? :)

Well, let's start the bids at 1250 gold per bunch.
And gun, I'll count your Gem Mountain as a 1250 gold bid.

Ok, I will count that toward the lot of 3. :)

Veera: this dosent meen your stepping down, does it?
We need a CJ

No, I'm staying in the DG one hundred percent. I'm just reducing my already small role in the RPG. I just don't need the tiles and the other fringe stuff.
And your bid is noted gunning.

Gunning opens bidding on Lot 1 for 1250 gold (In land)

I will bid 1250g for Lot 2 and 1300 for Lot 1

Shall we stay with 50g increases, Veera?

I will bid 1,350 on lot 1.

I have a wide selection of mountains, coasts and coastal mountains, including some exceptionally fine real estate just outside of Bohemia on the northern Taliesin coast. What would you value this at?

I'll bid 1350 for each lot.

I just need one mountain/coastal tile for my personal lot. I'll give you and everyone else the same deal Shai, and count the tile as 1250.

Lot 1 is currently to Gunning, for 1350
Lot 2 is currently to Shaitan, for 1350

Keep the bids coming: I'll be ending the auction once the bids end for about twenty four hours, or it's clear that there will be no more bids made.

Oops. I didn't notice gunning1's bid there for lot 1. I'll bid 1400 for lot #1.

Just wants to remind everyone that S&S was not invaded by the Indians, so tiles there are relatively safe. So keep the bidding going!

You can thank me later Veera.... :p

1,450.

1500g for Lot 1
1400g for Lot 2

1,550 for lot 1.

You guys don't necessarily have to go 50 gold at a time. I'd like to leave before I have one foot in the proverbial grave ;)

Point taken, Veera. ;)

1700g for lot 1.

Please stop! ;)

1,800.

Veera, I could throw in my mountain near the coast at TS-F-11. Please let me know what that tile is worth and add 1000g.

I hope your answer is 2250g. If so, that is my bid.

Why do you want those so bad?

Yes Donovan, you get the same deal as the others, so 1250 for the mountain tile.

First Lot - 2250 G to Donovan Zoi
Second Lot - 1400 G to Donovan Zoi

Bids are still continuing for a while, until it looks like no one else is willing to bid any higher.

@Veera---No one has bid on lot 2 for over 30 hours. Can I claim victory on that one?

@gunning1---I dunno....I am expansionist at heart, I guess. Plus it would be nice to send Veera off in style before she disavows materialism. ;) What is your interest in them?

Trade Deal. :D

But I'll bid 100 gold more on the other one. :)

2500 on Lot 1

1500 lot 2.

@gunning, I would wait for Veera's appoval on Lot 2; that bid has been standing for 2 days now. ;)

Ah, at least let me have one of those... ;)

Tell you what....I still have room to bid here. Throw in TS-E-14 and I'll withdraw my last bid, giving you high bid for Lot 1 at 2350g. :)

No thanks. :P :)

If there are no bids by 9 pm EST, then the auction will go to the current high bidders...

Lot 1 - 2500 Donovan Zoi
Lot 2 - 1500 Gunning

Veera! :eek: My bid on Lot 2 stood for over 2 days. I believe my Lot 1 bid has stood for at least a day and a half.

1550g on Lot 2, if I must.

1,600 then.

1650, Veera.....and mine is all cash!

Bidding on Lot 1 is closed. It goes to the military man with the musket, Donovan Zoi, for 2500 gold. I'll post the land/gold transaction as soon as Donovan confirms his bid in this post. Congratulations ^_^

Bidding on Lot 2 will continue, and Donovan is currently the highest bidder with 1650 gold.

1700!

All cash! (Can we take out loans on this?)

Wait, so now you don't need land?

??

Whatcha mean guning?

1750

1800g

Donovan, please confirm your bid. You've won Lot 1 for 2500 gold, but if you don't confirm by tomorrow afternoon, either on this post or through PM, I'll null the bid and continue that auction again.

Donovan also has the current bid for Lot 2 at 1800 gold. That auction is still continuing.

1850

Veera, now you don't want land in the deal?

I understand him now.

Sorry, Veera....I confirm for Lot 1.

1900g for lot 2

Veera never replied...1,950...:(

I dunno gunning....she has my land tile now. I am done bidding on Lot 2, I think. And to think, I held high bid for 2 days.............................................. ...................

2000

I can take out a loan, yes?

If you want to take out a loan Ski, it's up to you. I don't have any say in it as long as I get the gold I need ;)
Gunning, I don't need another tile, but I'll take another mountain tile of your choice for 800 gold, if you wish to accept that.

Ok, 2,050.

Alright, as long as i'm sure it's legal, and ok with you.

SKILORD raises his little bid paddle.
2100.

If there are no bids by tomorrow afternoon, then Skilord will win lot 2 for 2100 gold.

Wait, I think I'm going to drop out of this, I need the money for other things...

My first plot of Land!

I'm so proud, now i just take out a small loan and such, but give me until tomorrow, i'm to tired right now to do much.

This auction is over, Skilord wins for 2100 gold. Congratulations ^_^

Skilord, I need you to confirm your bid before I can complete the transaction. Please post here, or private message me.
If you don't post your confirmation, I'll have null the bid and continue the auction.

Last chance Skilord. Respond by this time on Sunday evening or I'll reopen the auction.

I already had Shaitan (;)) transfer the funds man.... cool it.

I already did confirm anyway.

In the future, please confirm your bids, and tell me before you transfer funds and such. There *are* two parties in the deal, not just one...
