Circumventing eBay - We’re going to get this script sold!
Anyone who’s been following the saga of the A.K.A. script knows we’ve been trying to get the thing on eBay throughout this week. Long story short…eBay says that selling scripts is a copyright violation and against its rules. Very ironic, since we’ve already sold several to raise funds for this effort.
Anyway- this evening, we’ve been looking into how to auction off the script, and the first thought was to do a live auction right here in the SJA chat room. After digging around, I found a plug-in that will allow us to do an eBay-style auction. You’ll see it on the right (if you’re logged in), if not it looks like this:
Click on it, and you’ll see a window that is very similar in style (information-wise) to what you get with an eBay auction:

Before we do this for real, I’d like to do a test, so I need as many of you as are willing to place bids on the test auction. Obviously, none of it is for real, so go nuts. Let’s just work the bugs out.
And remember, eventually you’ll be bidding on this:

We’ll fire the real auction up after we’ve had some time to test.
Thanks! Rubberpoultry

I tried the auction but kept being outbid by 2 dollars for every bid I made.

This has been very exciting! I know the person winning the script will be very happy!
