questions

is this real

yes. real laptop, real vinyl stickers, real person carrying it around mumbai. every sticker goes up on x with a photo when it lands on the lid

why a victus and not a macbook

a macbook lid already has the most famous logo in the world on it, so your sticker is fighting the apple. my lid has one small V that nobody looks twice at. yours is the thing people actually read

what do i get

a die cut vinyl sticker on the spot you won, applied by me. plus your logo and link on this page for as long as the sticker stays on

do i pay when i bid

no. bids are free to place. new brands show as in review until i check them, then your name and link go live. if you win, i contact you after the auction closes with a payment link. if you dont pay within 72 hours the spot goes to the next highest bid

can i get outbid

yes, until the auction closes. the next bid has to be at least ₹100 higher. your bid stays in the history either way

will you take any brand

no. i check every bid by hand. no gambling, no crypto pumps, nothing adult, nothing i wouldnt want next to my name. fake or joke bids get removed and the previous bid is restored

what is the corner

a small spotlight at the very top of this page. it is not an auction, you just pay the current price and its yours until someone pays ₹50 more. it shows up once i confirm the payment

what happens to the money

it pays back what the laptop cost me, ₹74,990. anything above that goes into building in public, domains, servers and coffee for the cafes where the stickers get seen

how do i know a message is really from you

i only ever write from benkeshrvan@gmail.com or dm from @01shrvan on x. i never ask for payment before the auction closes, never ask for otps or passwords, and never send payment links from any other account. if someone else messages you about a spot, its a scam, report it to me
