Bless you! I believed that spin - so really just assumed this was a good place to post the question. 

 

I just assumed that they would actually fix something that is a problem for both sellers and customers? 

 

So - I've had offers of several hundred dollars but am I obligated to sell for $3 because none of the auto-bids went through????

 

If so, my foray into e-bay selling will be coming to a very abrupt end.

Theres nothing showing in your sold listings for $3 in the last couple of hours, so maybe the auctions have just vanished along with the ebay outage. If so you will not be tied to anything and may be able to re-offer the lots.

One major suggestion. Never start an auction of an item worth hundreds of dollars for 99 cents or three dollars. As you have experienced, bad things can happen with auctions and it is rare to get multiple bidders. Much better to start the auction at the minimum price you arev willing to accept. Saves a lot of tears.
