In a recent survey, it was found that 76% of buyers said that they never used
the private auction option and 65% of all those who responded to the survey said
that an auction being private would make them less likely to participate in it.
The reasons that were given for not wanting to participate in a private auction
were:
1. They thought the seller had something to hide.
2. They thought that the auction might be a scam.
3. They thought that the private auction defeated the protection of transparency
of eBay auctions.
Buyers who participate in private eBay auctions cannot be warned that an item is
bogus by other sellers or buyers.
This does remove some of the safety that bidding on items through regular eBay
auctions provides.
The private eBay auction smacks of deceit and maybe even of intrigue. Yet there
are many sellers on eBay who always use the private auction option.
They say that it protects them as sellers and that it also protects their
customers. The majority of eBay members, however, do not agree with their
assessment.

Auctions
Ebay auctions are just plain FUN...especially the last few minutes before the
bids close.
Those last few minutes of an auction can raise your heart rate by more than a
few beats per minute! They are fun for both the sellers and the buyers.
Ebay auctions are open to every eBay seller. To sell without using the eBay
auction, that is sell at a fixed price, requires that a seller have a feedback
rating of at least 10 or to be ID verified.
The ID verification process takes some time and can cost as much as $5. Most
sellers use eBay auctions at least in the beginning. |
