四分律行事鈔資持記 2.826

2.826

In [item] seven, first it clarifies the limit of raising the bid. As when purchasing goods in the Saṅgha, when one person offers a price, the administrator's three announcements to inform the assembly serve as the limit, beyond which no further increase is permitted. From 'If the assembly...' onward, it clarifies whether regretting [the sale] and returning [the item] is permissible or not. The treatise is based on Saṅgha property, which is why it does not permit return. The *Daśādhyāya-vinaya* sets a daily limit for private property. In that Vinaya, below 'if', there was originally the word 'private'; suspecting that it would be shown below, it was therefore omitted earlier. Pointing to the *Dharmaguptaka-vinaya* refers to the non-offense section below stating that if there is regret, return is permitted; it does not clarify whether it is Saṅgha or private [property], nor does it set a limit, which is why it is called 'unclear'.
