Doesn't quite work that way dude. The auction was won @ 1.51 BTC, that is the price Fattcatt should pay, and nothing more - plus shipping costs if applicable.

edit: @ notserp - was thinking the same to be honest.

also a newbie just made an account 2 hours before end to bid it up seems kinda fishy

 Last time I checked its not "fourm" rules, that when an auction ends, it ends, unless otherwise stated an auction is just a tool used to negotiate price.

and unless OP stated he would not use an alt account to bid up the auction than he is free to do so

Just because 99% of you all here follow "respectable" auction rules doesn't mean that anyone HAS too.

Oh my.

Shill bidding in auctions is a major no no. He may be "free to do so", but people who do such things should be negged to hell. I am NOT saying that the seller has done this, so lets make that clear - I am simply stating that bidding in your own auction is essentially fraud - and if you do it and get caught, don't expect any respectable user to ever deal with you again.

I agree.

So then by that logic, no one should deal with TMAN than correct? Because
 (quote from OGnasty)
"TMAN used minerjones to anonymously auction a KIALARA and then attempted to manipulate the auction by stating, "wow this has to be a record low for a sub #100 serial. if I didn't have so many I would be snapping this up"
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1931778.msg19286369#msg19286369

Admission it was his auction:
"Dude I haven't crossed paths with OG in over 6 months, it wasn't until he derailed my auction hosted by MJ that this kicked off."

Shill bidding in auctions is a major no no. H

Making posts about an auction != shill bidding. The correct phrasing of what TMAN did in that auction is "hyping his own auction hosted by MJ" and not "shill bidding". That quote from OgNasty is an excuse for a neg. rating, which I do not believe is warranted and I do not agree with it (not enough to counter it as that opens more issues than it solves).
I will watch to see how this resolves. That account is 99% a shill.

You DONT change auction rules mid auction.  Never....never.  i dont care what bitcointalk says you can and cant do.  My god

If you want to negotiate a price put it up for sale...why even state terms of an auction then....hmmm maybe so people know the rules of your auction

[AT101ET]

You can't change the rules stated in the OP unless there was a disclaimer of sorts.
Asking for the higher post auction close price is just greedy and wrong especially considering the fact that the previous bids shouldn't have stood or been accepted since they came from a noob account which was created hours before the auction ended and which has never made other posts on the forum before.
Despite the fact that it looks like shill bidding it also looks unprofiessional and just morally wrong.
