If a member asked you to end an auction for a price you deemed acceptible...

[drice6900]

Nope. I never end an auction early. You want it, you bid on it.

[OldGuy]

If there were no bids on the auction I would. After bids are on it I will not end it.

 

What he said.

[Silver Surfer]

Yes.

[divad]

Yes.

 

Bids are meaningless.

 

Not to the people bidding.

 

Especially if the only bidder is "livingmonolith"

 

Can't argue with that!

 

My last comment was a continuation of my statement . . . not a response to yours

[october]

Touche! Though I don't recall ever bidding on any of your "gems"...

[Jeffreykli]

Like others, if there are no bids, then yes. If there are bids, then no.

[divad]

Like others, if there are no bids, then yes. If there are bids, then no.

 

As if this is some "moral higher ground . . . "

[Artboy99]

I would end it, and sell it to both parties accepting paypal payments only.

Then I would take the money and the comic and move to Tuktoyuktuk.

not really higher moral ground, but I'd want the auction process to go forward. If I'm a bidder, I want the auction to reach its conclusion.

[Markusrex-migration]

Yes. Any chance I get to screw eBay, I'll take it.

[B-Smooth]

Yes. Any chance I get to screw eBay, I'll take it.

 

[skybolt]

I would report the member to Ebay.

[THE_BEYONDER]

would you do it?

I dont want to draw it out as far as explanations and stories and theoretical scenarios just a yes or no would suffice.

 

As others have said:

 

If there are no bids=yes

 

If there are bids already placed= absolutely not

[uclapeterg]

No, but if there are no bids, I will tell the person they can buy it when the auction is over for a reduced price.

 

[uclapeterg]

Yes.

 

Bids are meaningless.

 

[uclapeterg]

I would report the member to Ebay.

 

[OldGuy]

I would report the member to Ebay.

 

Ok, let's leave our members out of this. We wouldn't want to offend anyone.

[Anfield Fox]

Here is a little tip to the eBay newbies.

 

If someone contacts you and asks to end an auction early ALWAYS do it AFTER payment has been received. Reason being that many rival sellers use this tactic to get you off the market if you are selling the same or a similar item.

[FlamingCarrot]

It depends on the offer.

 

 

 

 

To echo what another poster said earlier.

 

Any time you have a chance to screw ebay, it should be something you ought to seriously consider.
