I just went to bid on it, to see whats what, and BEFORE confirming, I got this
If you are bidding on a mining claim advertised for sale in the state of Alaska, you need to be aware of the status of the claim and the requirements to maintain it, as well as the rights acquired and allowed users. You may obtain this information by contacting Kerwin Krause, Mineral Property Mgr. At 907-269-8652 (email [email]kerwink@dnr.state.ak.us[/email]); or Wyn Menefee, Public Information Mgr., at 907-269-8412 (email:Wyn_Menefee@dnr.state.ak.us) This is a non-binding auction. By bidding, you are not entering into a contract to purchase this property. You are, however, expressing serious interest in the property and in pursuing contract discussions if you win. Wtf is that LOL... Anyways, have you SEEN what it comes with!   _____________________

Seems a reasonable auction to me. Anyway, British eBay is selling houses in Bulgaria for just over a grand each! See you! |

Yeah, I don't see any problem with it; just competing for attention with the other big virtual real estate sale recently recently (EVE Online I think). And if it is not Linden Lab doing this auction? _____________________

I just bid it to $3,450 and reserve isn't met yet. I HATE reserve price auctions.

Someone could always just use the "buy it now" price and see what happens.
Any takers? _____________________

LoL I really highly doubt that is LL selling that off E-Bay. I wouldn't be so sure.. There is one major point, ebay account created in 2001.. So either we have an ebay hack, or a phsycic.. This thread has a lot more to suggest it is.. _____________________

Good lord, if that's real LL need to take a long hard look at themselves. Either that or they're desperate for cash. *shrug*
I mean a lot of the images aren't even of very attractive builds or presented in an attractive way. My impression of LL will plummet if this is their latest attempt to drum up some business. I mean, it doesn't make any sense. Unless, and I'll repeat, they're desperate for cash. _____________________

You will also learn more by visiting www.secondlife.com or sending an e-mail to islandauction@secondlife.com If that is not Linden Labs putting that up for auction, then that is a mighty fine email address the "scammer" has. |

Wilder Linden here and yes the auction is for real. Please feel free to send questions and comments to me at [email]islandauction@lindenlab.com[/email]
I'll be on mail all weekend and do my best to get back with timely responses. The owners of Amsterdam, Golgotha, Hawaii and Avalon were kind enough to let me take screen shots of their builds as examples of what is possible for an island build. Sorry for the delay in posting here! Wilder Linden |

Why are people so offended by this?
It's not like they are getting anything for free, or being given an unfair advantage over other people. It's good advertising for LL as i'm sure websites will post it up. |
