I'M NOT SURE WHY THERE MUST/SHOULD BE ANYTHING 'PRIVATE' ON A PLATFORM WHERE BUYERS HAVE TO BUY
THINGS TRUSTING A MERE SCAN AND A SILLY FEEDBACK PROFILE. WELL, EBAY NEEDS MONEY, SO THEY ARE LIKELY TO PROMOTE SALES---BE IT ANYWAY, BE IT ANYTHING EVEN LIKE STUPID ITEMS SUCH AS RAM SITA KALI DURGA 'EAST INDIA COMPANY COINS'. I ALSO DON'T KNOW WHY SELLERS WOULD WANT TO HAVE TONS OF PRIVACY UNLESS THERE'S A FISH-FISH SMELL SOMEWHERE.
SO BUYERS, YOU NEED TO BE CAREFUL. IF BUYERS PRETEND TO BE IDIOTS, NONE CAN SAVE THEM. TRY TO AVOID AUCTIONS WHERE THINGS ARE SO MUCH PRIVATE, BE SURE YOU'RE GETTING CHEATED. YOU MUST CHECK THE BIDDERS AND THEIR BIDDING HISTORY WHEN YOU'RE BIDDING OR YOU'VE ALREADY WON ON ANY AUCTION. I CHECKED MORE THAN 400 AUCTIONS LATELY ON DIFFERENT BUYERS' REQUESTS, AND IT WAS SHOCKING TO KNOW THAT MORE THAN 60% OF
THESE AUCTIONS WERE JUST A REAL 'ONE-SIDED' FIGHT BETWEEN A BUYER AND THE SELLER HIMSELF FROM ANOTHER ID. IN MOST CASES IT WAS RIDICULOUSLY STUPID, A BIDDER WITH '0' FEEDBACK WITH 200/300 BIDS AND A 100% BIDDING ON THAT PARTICULAR SELLER'S ITEMS--AND ANOTHER HELL OF A BUYER GOING ON BIDDING AGAINST THAT 9 MONTHS OLD '0' FEEDBACK BIDDER. ARE OBVIOUS THINGS SO DIFFICULT TO SEE?
STRANGE !
