Deposit Multipliers is a number shown
on the Member's Menu on the left.
To determine your bidding limit, multiply your Deposit Multiplier
by 100 and multiply that by the amount of the deposit .
Bidding Limit (Japanese Yen) = Deposit Multiplier
x 100 x Deposit Amount
For example, if your Deposit Multiplier is 5, then you for
a $50 deposit, your bidding limit would be 25000 yen.
Your Deposit Multipiplier will be lowered at Crescent Shop's
discretion.
(i.e. a very high
priced single item may require a larger deposit. Late payments
may also require larger deposits for future purchases) |
