    Too many people are blocking in the auctions. They drive the price way up ( with no intention of ever paying for the items) so people give up bidding. My idea ( and others that I have talked to about it in the past) is to make the payment instantaneous ( eliminating the 6 day purchase period) with no option of backing out on purchasing the items.

    the other alternative would be to block non-payers from bidding again for a month or two ... I don't like option a & I'm not among the b group either....

    The idea is good but I`m not shure that Bigpoint would make something about that problem. :)

    I think the 7 days to buy option should be kept, but at the end of 7 days it should be automatically purchased (or if you don't have enough gold/diamonds you get put on a "cooldown" from bidding for a week or more).

    How does that solve the blocking issue? So someone can do constant blocking for a week and not pay for the items? All that will do is get people to coordinate who is going to do the blocking and when. Then when they don't pay for all their items and gets banned from bidding, someone else will do the blocking for a week while the other person is on their "cooldown" and so on....
    Good alternative Mac, but that doesn't solve the blocking problem.

    What's fair is fair. If you bid for items at auctions, you should be willing to pay for them. Otherwise it's unfair for those whom are bidding and will pay for their items.

    Yes if a player wins the bid they should pay for it no later then one day after they win it. Or they should get a two day ban from auctions.This will stop or at least slow the people blocking the auctions.
