It seems to have become normal practice for sellers to end auctions early if the bids are low either that or the are many clumsy sellers which either break, loose etc the item as that the reaso they use


 


but by some miracle they manage to find the item and relist soon after lol


 


which there was some way to eliminate these scamers from my searches that would save me wasting my time bidding

Belinda, it's best to copy the listing title here, not the item numbers. You aren't allowed to "name and shame" sellers by listing their names or those item #'s.


 


But you can post the listing title ๐Ÿ˜‰

Is a listing number considered as naming and shaming because have seen many people use item numbers.


but ok

yep, silly isn't it?


 


You still get directed to the same listing.


 


I think it's a stupid "rule" as well.

It is a bit of a grey area....the rule says you cannot put an item number in a thread title.  That is definitely reportable.  But you will find that you are often reported for putting it in the thread itself.


It is safer to just not use the item number at all.
