Ebay gripes - bid retractions are really annoying me now

[DeletedUser006]

Sorry but another ebay gripe,I have 6 items for sale and have had 4 bids retracted from different users, has anyone else been experincing this kind of annoying activity :?

I don't sell much on there but, the last time I did, someone retracted their bid..
Piddled me right off it did :evil:

Got the effers back though, got my Sister to bid the item back up for me...

Not normally an advocate of shill bidding but felt mitigated in this case.

Same.........

Just sold my 95 Lava Dome and it was retracted after 3 days stating wrong amount entered :x

Surely you'd know after a couple of seconds!!

Just trying to find out the top bidders higheest bid, the twats

Yes its a right old pain, I have subsequently added them to my blocked bidders list to ensure I never cross them again :?

Aye, it's far to easy to retract a bid...............eBay is increasingly populated by 'Uckwitts.......... :x

I think they put a bit in just to see what the other guys maximum is then retract it.

Equally bad are the sellers that pull the plug because they aren't getting masses of bids . . :evil:

I didn't even know that you could retract bids!! I thought that once you'd bid ... that was it, you were committed to it?! :shock:

I'll keep this one in mind just so I don't get caught out by it!! Thanks for the heads up guys!!

Thats the problem........ you will get caught out if your a seller, you cant stop people doing it, I do think these cheeky fekkers will get a strike or for this and you can see in their profile.
