Wanna bid on another .mobi but this sentence shows up on SEDO:

"Your current account status doesn't allow you to participate in multiple auctions."

Their policy is that if you haven't closed at least one auction there in the past, you can't bid on more than two auctions at the same time. If this is only the second you've tried for, though, you should be sure to let them know.

It appears from someone else's post about this similar situation that even if you aren't the high bidder on the auction, it counts as one of the two. Which really seems like a bad setup...

EDIT: Okay, not such a bad setup...as Scandi points out correctly below, it's to avoid shill bidding, and of course it doesn't take being a winning bidder to be a shill bidder. In fact, quite the opposite.

Thanks for your respondI think it is intended as a safeguard to prevent shill bids from people just trying to drive up prices with no intention of paying if they win.
