[bunnystrut.livejournal.com]

WHO : Fenrisu

WHERE : http://www.furaffinity.net/user/fenrisu/

WHAT : Backed out of YCH http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14645993/ (NSFW)

WHEN : YCH Started on Sept. 28th, they bid on it then, then backed out October 1st

PROOF : http://i.imgur.com/bowqkJT.png

EXPLAIN : Quite simple situation, Fenrisu backed out of a YCH I posted, they bid twice, first the $25 then a $45, then decided on October 1st, that they didn't want it anymore and to give it to the person behind them. I already have it clearly written in my rules to not do this and they ignored it.

I am posting this A_B so other people can watch out for this person and be wary of them.

Same thing happened to me, but unfortunately there was no other bid. I'd really just prefer they say they're backing out rather than just hide their comment. That seems rude.

It definitely is rude, and sneaky. Like they think maybe the artist won't notice if they just quietly hide the comment or something. And that was what annoyed me the most. Like, I already have it right in my auction rules that bids are binding and backing out = blacklisting, but I mean, I'm not unreasonable. If someone came to me and was like "Gee, y'know, I thought I had these funds to spare, but an emergency came up, I'm sorry but it turns out I need those funds for this other thing..." I'd be like, okay, sucks for me but things happen sometimes and I won't punish someone facing an emergency. But to just try to sneak a retraction, and also with the excuse of "Oh I just don't have the funds lol" is like...wow, really?
