A Bet
Editor: Elkassar1
When the audience heard the starting price, their immediate reaction was to curse the seller out!
The seller had clearly set such an astronomical price for his item because he was trying to profit off the divine artifact. Many of the auction participants had sophisticated eyes, and based on their evaluation, the 'Aladdin's Magic Lamp Body' was only worth around 500,000 utility points. Even if it would eventually be sold at a higher price because this was an auction, 700,000 utility points were more than enough to buy it.
The price of five million utility points would only be reasonable if all three of the lamp base, lamp oil and lamp body were sold together.
Hence, the cruel reality was that the 'Aladdin's Magic Lamp Body' ended up not receiving any bids. The seller must be really disappointed, but it was only to be expected. Everyone participating in the auction was smart. Who would willingly be played like a fool by him?
