I could be mistaken, but duplicates seem to be acceptable (I see two '53' bids currently on the list)

I think you are right.  Still, I will stick with my $61 OP.  Please disregard the original $60 bid.

Auction Rules:
-You must be an NA member before the start of the auction.
-Shipping fees are NOT INCLUDED in the bid and must be paid by the winner. Shipping will be dependant on place in the world you are in.
-Paypal Goods and Services is preferred method of payment.
-Minimum starting bid is $50 US Dollars.
-You can bid as many times as you want.
-Editing your bid is forbidden. Doing so will result in disqualification.
-If there are two bids with same amount, earlier bid takes lower cartridge number.
-The bids can be increased with a minimal amount of $1 US Dollars.

EDIT:
A bit of information:
-The Auction has now a time limit set to 23:59 (11:59pm) of April 22th.
-This auction will accept people registered after the auction started.
Is this allowed (changing the member registered prior requirement)? Did not think the rules could be changed once the auction started and there were bids. To be honest, this makes me uneasy due to things that have happened in the past.

I'm not sure sure how this works. Do I just put a bid number in and see if it holds as a "high"?

That was the initial post.. then the edit happened which changed it to allow new members registered after the start of the auction to bid... reason I mention it is because in the past, users were creating multiple accounts to shill the bid or to win multiple copies. These activities are why most people require the member prior to start of auction. Just makes me feel uneasy.

Can preference be given to those with accounts created before?  Or require feedback?  Or something?

Shill bidding/multiple copies seems unfair.

Just to be clear, I am not accusing the OP of shill bidding / other members of creating multiple accounts to win multiple copies in this auction... just know it has happened in the past with other member's auctions/releases. And I thought changing rules like that after the auction started was not allowed, though I could be wrong... its been a long while since I have read the rules / been on the site and realize things could have changed.

Hi all.
We apologize for the confusion.
Thanks to everyone pointing out the contradictory rules.
As a result, the rule about allowing people to register and bid after start of auction is no longer in effect. Ie. original rule from top of the rule list is in effect.
Again, we apologize for confusion, just realized that

@Br81zad
Duplicates are allowed. The person who made a bid earlier will be a priority, though.

@M-Tee
We will look into it and let you know as soon as possible

Also, someone asked over private messages if you can increase your previous bid and the answer is yes, you can, but you need to do so in a new message, editing your previous bids is not allowed.

I'll update OP with relevant information.

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at the Let's Play Gaming Expo last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Oh, my WTB thread is very popular. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, Richard craniums - they all adore it. They think it's a righteous thread.
I'd also like to add that I've got my father's gun and a *scorching* price guide for aftermarket Nintendo games.
Between Dragon Warriors and nothing... I'll take Dragon Warriors - for any of my FT/FS/FO items.

While you're checking shipping, you might want to see if Canada differs from the US and post it as well. There is a not-insignificant number of Canadian members on NA.

Sending a game to Canada and South Korea is not a problem. It will not cause additional costs. I will add this information to the first post.

Some clarification from OP would be nice, but we should be using NA time per site rules:
