路Looking through the Recommended Vintage/Modern Omega Watches On Ebay (not Inquiries) threads, thought of one issue that other forums had with these sort of threads. Maybe this is an issue here, or not (if not, ignore what I am about to say)
Issue is that most times active listings are posted that are not BIN, that may be harder to find (they are in wrong section, missing info, and so on). By posting these, it shows them to much wider audience that may have missed them otherwise. What this potentially does is it raises the final price more than it would have been. While it is good to share these auctions, there may be members that found these watches by themselves, and were hoping that it would go "under the radar" sort of a thing. In turn, their winning bid may be lower. By showcasing live auction, winning bid will surely have to be higher, as there are others now in the bidding.
One way around this is to say that unwritten rule is to post up only BIN eBay auctions. This way price is what it is, and no one will pay more because there are more people now that know about it. This is same "rule" that few other forums I visit have.
Like I said, maybe not an issue here, in which case, never mind, and carry on as before 馃榾
PS: No, this didnt happen to me haha
