Note me if you have any questions or if you just wanna talk!
☽ ☆~◯~☆ ☾ Apparently there is a huge misunderstanding going on or something.
Those of you who have been watching me for a while know of the cauldron YCH that I posted toward the beginning of the month. I had the Starting bid at $75. One person bid on it, time ran out, I replied to them that they had won and went to bed. The next day I went to check and see if they had messaged me to find they had deleted their bid. So I went to message them to see if they couldn't afford it. Unfortunately, I couldn't send the message because the site stated that they had blocked me.
So, after asking for advice, I decided to take the first auction down and begin anew with it. I blocked the person because I do not want someone bidding on things if they are just going to back out of it.
When I re-posted the auction I had lowered the price to $25 so more people would be interested. The auction had ended and the person who bid the most won. I messaged them, they sent payment and I gave them what they paid for. This has been about a week or so ago now.
Today I was changing a few things on my page and I saw my block list so I went to her page to see if she had unblocked me and I was going to send her a message about what happened. Unfortunately, I found a journal she had written about me saying that "when you win an auction don't you typically get something out of it?" She went on about how I had re-posted the auction and how she messaged me then I blocked her.
She would've understood if I had extended the time limit to see if I could get more bids and she would've been ok with that. Then she wrote: " But she didn't extend the auction an extra few days, she pulled a full reset, ignored the fact someone had in all fairness already won said auction and then blocked that someone when they asked what happened. Artist expect some degree of professionalism and manners from their clients, is it really to much for clients to ask the same from artist?"
I had never received a message from this person.
I ALWAYS try my best to be professional when dealing with commissioners who buy YCHs and other forms of my art. Which is why I was going to message her when I saw that she had deleted her bid.
If I had wanted to get rid of her bid why would I re-post the whole auction with a lowered price? For someone who is trying to make it to where they can do art as a living, why would they take a lower price when the $75 price was already won?
This makes no sense to me.
Now I don't know if someone hacked her account or the website went wacky with her bid or not. But I would completely understand that and, if she wished, I would do a commission for her since the auction got messed up. But that seems unlikely since she said she messaged me then I blocked her after I got the message that I never really received.
Does anyone have any opinions on this that I'm just not getting?
EDIT: And I appear to still be on her block list so I cannot sort this out with her.
If you are the person this is about and are reading this feel free to message me so we can work this out.

That sounds messed up... Pretty sure the page said comment removed by author, yes?

OP
Yeah it did. I went to ask if she couldn't afford it cuz I was gonna see if I could lower it a little for her but when I tried to send the message it said she had me blocked.
