So I'm watching an item on Ebay. Seller has only put it on a Buy It Now, no auction, and the price they want for it as a bit steep, although I've seen these things go for more, but this one is used and has a bad photo.
So no movement as yet, so I mailed them and asked if they'd consider an offer price below the Buy It Now.
They said they had lots of watchers, so they would, but they'd hold onto any offers made so others had the chance to put in their offers and then they could consider all of them and give everyone a fair go.
Erm.....isn't that just an auction then? Ok so it's effectively sealed bids, but still, an auction? And one with no start or end time, just up to them?
Seems cheeky to me.
