One of the many pitfalls of eBay as we know it today is that bidders are hidden from each other, and we are now unable to offer advice to bidders. I don’t recall when the change came about, and only had one minor negative experience where another bidder on an item I was interested in messaged me to say ‘it’s mine’, which only served to encourage me as a buyer.
I don’t believe many buyers search the eBay community forums for advice on items, and I’ve never found on-going discussions around live auctions.
Wouldn’t it be good for bidders, and spectators to offer their penny’s worth on a live chat box one each and every auction?
