We’re please to announce that bidding is now officially open for the first set of Market Stall leases. The general rules and procedures are outlined in this Wiki article:
https://wiki.orbusvr.com/Market_Stall_Auction
To place a bid, fill out this form:
Bids will be accepted from now until Friday, January 12th at 12 PM (Noon) US Central Time. At that time the monthly lease price will be set and winners will be notified. The lease will begin on Monday, January 15th and last until February 15th.
A few notes specific to the first few auctions:
- Merchant-tier backers who already received a stall from the Kickstarter campaign have existing leases which are exempt from this auction and the next. So basically, their stalls are locked in as-is.
- If you are a Merchant-tier backer who wants to bid on a different Market Area than the one you are already in to get another stall, you may do so using the same procedure as the standard auction format.
- If you have an existing stall and wish to upgrade it to the 24-slot stall, you will be able to do so once the monthly lease price for this month is set for its market area by paying the same fee as everyone else.
- There are 4 stalls available for lease in Highsteppe, and 10 available for lease in Guild City.
Please note the rules regarding Market Groups and how they affect the auction process.
If you have any other questions on this process please let me know. Thanks!
