Do you lose any gold by listing a purchase offer, then removing it

guild-wars-2

I almost have enough gold to buy my precursor, and I'd like to uppercut the current highest bid by a few gold every day, to try and make sure that my own bid is always highest.

I am aware that there are listing fees when listing items, and that you lose gold by posting and removing listings over and over again. My question is: are there also such fees for bids (gold listings)? If so, what are the exact mechanics?

No, making an offer and retracting it costs you nothing (except the trouble of doing it and picking up your gold from the TP again, of course).

In fact, that's similar to what I did when I bought my precursor (back when Dusk was around 800 gold). If you have the money, you can put it into as many bids as you'd like; when you cancel them, you get back the exact same amount. If you're doubtful before such a large investment, it's easy enough to try it on a smaller scale with a cheap item.
