Hi,
Private auctions have always struck me as dodgy, i.e. they offer potential for sellers to dupe buyers etc. Ebay, in their infinite wisdom (or greed), have made my account default to private auctions whenever I list something. The last item I tried to sell didn't get its reserve (even though the photos were near pro-quality and it was rebuilt + guaranteed).
I'm wondering if the private status may have acted as a deterrent? I'm pretty peeved that Ebay would do this to my account...why? I've paid £15 to list an auction with nothing to show for it... Greedy bastards.
