I'd be interested how much the Immelman flag went for.

it's totally F madness. I've heard people bid 40.000 doubloons and didn't even get it. So it's World of Millionaires I guess? Insane! What a joke this kind of auction

5750 D for Schlieffen failed. 
 

Doubloons not yet refunded..

 

Edit: got my doubloons back. And “ happy” to find out it required around 25k doubloons. Something far from the amount I was willing to pay. So feel relieved that I did  not lose the auction by a small margin but by a huge gap.

It's a good thing. If you want Schlieffen you'll be able to get her without paying a penny in a few weeks. So what if a few people with deep pockets get a tech tree ship a little while before you? This way WG gets to make a packet off people with a high time preference without impacting game balance. Can you imagine what kind of premium monster they'd come up with if they had to sell one of those for 40 kdoub? I think this is a much better arrangement.

this auction is such a joke, only people who bid doubloons worth of 200 or 300 euro's won.

A friend of mine got the ship with 27k

Well that would mean the minimum winning bid between 24m and 27m.

 

 

A little higher than expected and a lot more than I’d pay.

And you expected otherwise? WG do by the spreadsheet and spread sheet says that in this game many people have much money...so it is ok who wanted to buy it and as I said WG after such thing is mild to us :)..

4500 dubs for the Schlieffen - system still thinking about it.

 

But above I read 40k was not enough... so I guess I'll get my dubloons back.

I really don't understand what people expected. Of course it will reach high price as it is a German ship, and not any ship but T10 of one of the mostly requested lines in the game, BCs. Considering that, on EU server, German ships like Bismarck, GK, Hindy are among those most played ships in general it is not surprising there is such "interest" in Schlieffen, at least not to me.

that is strange, or different per server? since someone told me a friend bid 40K and wasn't enough
