Outing auctions...?

(1/4) > >>

dannywhiteley:
What do you think when your watching something on ebay that might be slightly off most peoples radar, then it gets flashed up here in a thread outing the auction to everybody?

Previous forums in unrelated hobbies have frowned on this, and auction items are not discussed until after its closed, but here it seems positively encouraged?

This isnt related to any particular post, im just curious on your thoughts.

kuwahero:
on the fence about this one

as JLC from friday night project would say:

if it is something you've been hunting for ages and possibly might miss or have missed (GOOD TIMES) :daumenhoch:

not so good if your trying to score a bargain (BAD TIMES) :2gunsfiring_v1:

Lazarou:
I think it's a no no, if you know someone is after something just PM them!

Ebay used to be about bargains!

...plus whatever it is you can bet plenty of Radsters are on it already!

dannywhiteley:
Exactly, its not fair on those who have spent the time searching badly worded auctions, wrongly listed etc to find a bargain.

It opens it up to people who may not be actively searching, but fancy a punt (or even to deliberatley drive up the price to stop someone else getting a bargain - not saying this happens on here, but seen it happen on other forums).

scowey:
We are very excitable it seems and just cant resist posting that auction...

then later realise you have just outpriced yourself  :2funny: :2funny:

I trust this is related to the gen 1 haro..
