Great way to relaunch bidno .. err I mean bido

Email recieved:

Hello XXXX

Auction for test-auction-2009.com will start in 0 hours and 1 minutes!

If you would like to bid, read the expert commentaries, participate in the discussions, or watch the live auction - please click here.

Then received about an hour later:

Greetings Bido Friends!

Hopefully you just received our automated test announcement from our new live Bido system. The email stated that an auction was starting in 5 minutes. Unfortunately, it is not! Our first live auction will actually be next week. This email that you are reading is sent from our customer relations mail server. So if you didn't get that first email a few minutes ago, please reply and let us know. Blah blah blah

Gives me a huge confidence boost. Good to see all systems are in place and up and running.

Does that mean if I bid and then change my mind about an hour later I'll be let off the hook?

No, I didn't think so ..

I don't remember signing up to be a part of the spam email testbed?

Hi Mulligan, our techs mistakenly placed a test auction in the live platform. I have taken measures to prevent that from happening again. Kind regards.
