End date? Starting bid? Minimum increments? Proof? Spelling?

Well, in absence of parameters, you can pay me 11k credits for me to take them.

There isn't much point in bidding, because ALC hasn't bothered to set an end date or starting bid, making this auction both pointless and invalid per the official rules for auctions:
How do I format an auction?
The format is shown below:
Title:
Auction: [ITEM]

Layout:
In-game Name:
Item(s) up for auction:
Starting bid:
Minimum increments:
Ending date & time (Specify a timezone):
Buyout Price (Optional):
If there is a reserve (Optional):

Screen shots are also encouraged, because they provide proof of items, and it's easier to show what you're selling.
If auctions refuse to follow this new procedure they can be shut down at staff discretion.

The ending date cannot simply be discretionary; you MUST give a certain length or a specific date and time. Auctions can only be extended by a maximum of 10 minutes after the end date if there are last minute bids. Can be used in combo with a specified end date (so only takes effect after the end time).

Items placed up for auction should be considered sold, credits bid should be considered spent. Neither buyers nor sellers may arbitrarily withdraw bids/items.
Items should be in the same condition at the end of the auction as they were at the beginning.
Sellers MAY reject bids from individual players, but should have a reason for doing so.
Players may have a reserve, but they should tell an impartial third party ahead of time if possible, AND MUST STATE ITS PRESENCE IN THE INITIAL POST.
A seller MAY end an auction prematurely, but they need to make a post stating their intent to do so ahead of time. Ideally, this post gives 24 hours of notice or more.
The seller MUST clarify any extension rules at the beginning of the auction, in the main post, if they think bidding is going to continue.
The seller MUST state whether items can or cannot be used as a bid in their original post.

This guy is relatively new to the forums, and does not have nearly as much experience as you. All he wants to do is do a simple auction and it is much easier just to correct him in the first place than to mock him for it, so that he can fix his mistake.

Has he even looked at this thread again?
