    I think its the site's pre-paid auction currency, i've seen it on a few other auction sites in the last few years. The site makes their revenue off of the sales on the currency (in this case gold) rather than the individual sale.

    That's how it looks to me anyway.

    edit: yeah, http://www.gladriel.com/purse/ has the details on gold and diamonds, site currency for exclusive auctions and site features.

    I see makes perfect sense, interesting, i could see it working as long as they have some sort of protection plan like ebay for buyers.

    You get diamonds for writing game reviews and such and you can use them to get raffle tickets for games that they give away. You can also convert 1 diamond to 5 gold.

    http://www.gladriel.com/ranks/

    Tells you how many diamonds you get for what.

    Edit:
    Apparently theres some referral system, if you didn't already sign up I get 10 diamonds if you use my referral. :)
