844469	2009-12-31 04:37:00	I'm curious - who actually supplies the items to the successful bidder?	Greg (193)
844470	2009-12-31 09:57:00	I'm curious - who actually supplies the items to the successful bidder? I assume it is the people who run the website. It should also be noted that on other websites, people may be bidding against people in many different countries, as multiple websites may be running the identical auction on their website. Great idea to make money, but the ComCom are looking into it.	robbyp (2751)

I expect you lose your credits as well and have to buy some more. Oh yes, I am told by brother in law who says, they or similar, are operating in Canada. Apparently that is the way it works.
