Off Topic: Chicken eBayers

[thehornets]

I am finding more and more eBayers do not have the courage to list an item at a low price and see it through to the end. Many are cancelling listings early if bidding has not gone high.

Bit of a chicken practice. With the number of free listing weekends there are plenty of opportunities to list something and start it at the minimum price you are willing to accept. Why not just do this instead of messing around potential bidders who may end up alienated from bidding on future listings.

Nice to see it is not just me noticing this. It has definitely got worse recently.
