Female Logic?
My sister has just done this - she rang the vendor and the vendor agreed to pull the Auction so that she could sell the item to my sister. The item was £250 so I guess she was saving the Ebay fee in this case.
Hey! Is this a slam against female logic?!? I am the most logical person I know...sure, it's a brand of logic that might not always make sense to everybody else...but, darn it, it *IS* logical!
But now *I* digress! You know, it kind of blows the theory, that a lot of us have, that most sellers are greedy and enjoy the bidding wars. Afterall, had she left it up for auction...who knows, the selling price might have doubled!
I keep trying to think of what would make me (as a seller) pull an auction...and, yes, maybe I could see allowing one bidder to have it over another. Like if I knew that the one person was just going to resell it, while the other bidder might be a passionate collector. Who knows?
