    I couldn't really find any instructions but looking at andrewkm's original post it looks like the increment minimum for auction is 10. This makes it pointless to auction large volumes of lower value items.

    For example I want to auction 1000 melon seeds. Server price is 0.10 so I enter something like:

    /auction start 1000 0.10 0.01

    and I get invalid number. Minimum increment of 10 is pointless when an item is worth 0.10+

    Auction would be more useful if we can auction things that are worth less.

    Thanks

    Agreed, but I'd only bring it down to somewhere between $1 and $5. Though wouldn't those be worth $100?

    I'd been presuming the price was per item, not per lot :(

    Documentation is lovely! I'd looked on the wiki but no info.

    I'll have it on the wiki soon. Don't know why it's not there already.

    +1, I think a $5 minimum increment would be fair... we can't go too low though.
