Not sure if anyone here sells on eBay, but i am winnowing down my collection and sold two pieces on there over the past week. Both of my auctions had multiple bidders retract their bids in the midst of the auction. They all claimed they had bid mistakenly, but in some cases there was 24 hours between the bid and retraction.
In any event, I wasn’t aware this was something one could do, better yet have it happen so many times. If I were a prospective buyer, I would have been suspicious that the seller was doing something fishy. Makes me question whether I received a fair price for my pieces, and certainly makes me unhappy about being charged 15% commission.
Has anyone else run into this problem? I guess that’s why so many listings are “buy it now”.
