WTF just happened to FantasyAuctioneer.com (1 Viewer)

[KellysHeroes]

Yesterdayit to said $23.99 per league draft. Then Today I tried to set my league auction and I noticed its sayin $99.99 per league draft... is that right? Anyone have an inside track.

FantasyAuctioneer.com

Yo... $100 for a draft... no way anyone will pay that

I clicked on the link and it says 23.99

Yeap.. they fixed it... had me very worried; I love their service and was pissed that they jacked up their rate like that.Actually.. after I logged in.. the same message is still there"Create a public or private league for $99.99 per league or $9.99 per team (league manager included)."But I see that they put a banner up"We have just released Beta of our NFL '07 site! There are still some bugs we will work through over the nextcouple of weeks, so please help us by reporting any bugs you find to support@fantasyauctioneer.com. Thank you. "

Any word on if they have a partnership again this year with MFL that will get you a discount?

"# Create an auction or draft:

1) Public mock auctions and drafts are FREE

2) Private auctions or drafts with no commissioner service are FREE until 8/1, $23.99 per league after

3) Private auctions or drafts with commissioner service are $79.99 per league

4) Public auctions or drafts with commissioner service are $9.99 per team "

So what exactly is "commissioner service"? Is that if you're hosting your league on their site directly, or does that give you a commissioner tools capability during the draft?

Our league is planning on using fantasyauctioneer for our draft in August, and we are hosting the league at myfantasyleague. .We want to import the draft from fantasyauctioneer, and the commish also wants to be able to pause or roll-back the draft if need be. Can we still do that for the $23.99 price, or are those features only available with the "commissioner service" for $80?

I hunted around the site to try to find a description of what commissioner service is, but could not find anything that described it in any detail. There is a link to "learn more about commissioner service", but it just reloads the main page when you click on it.

I got the felling that if you want to pause and roll back... its gona to cost you $80 bucks which I don't think anyone will pay.

I hope with the $24 option... we can still have flexability at our roster limits... otherwise I can't use them anymore

Emailed support and they replied rather quickly:"Thanks for the note. Sorry about the confusion, but as you point out, we have yet to publish the marketing info for our commissioner service. We didn't want to delay releasing the Beta of our auction software, so we decided to release it and add the marketing info later this week.

By commissioner service, we mean league manager. As in you can run your league on our site. We've partnered with HomeGrownSports for that. If you want to continue using MyFantasyLeague, you are welcome to do so and you will have all the Commish Tools features like you normally would. As an MFL user, you actually get a 30% discount and we can export your auction results to your league within 48 hours of your auction completing (but usually within 24).

We'll make sure to make all of this clearer on our site soon. Thanks for reporting it.

So the good news is

A) the 30% MFL discount, and

B) should be able to import draft, pause/roll back, etc. for the regular price of $24.

I like rewarding quality people in whatever they do, so let me throw a bone out here and say that George del Prado has been very helpful to me in 2 years of auctioning a huge dynasty league (12 teams * 55 players per team) and moving them over to MFL. Good customer service there in my experience, at least with the preseason auctions.

Is anyone else having troubles with this site tonight? I tried creating a mock, and joining one and I am getting some strange error.

I think it's time for a reboot...
