14 Answers
I've been watching a Buy it Now item on eBay for a while. It started at 18.99,and the price was reduced to 15.99 a week or so ago. I got an email a short while ago...."Price reduced!!...you watched this at 1999.00....you save 1980.00!!! It's now 19.00. Wow.
I've sent off an irate email to eBay...will it do any good?

There's no accounting for peoples actions… and Ebay proves that in spades! Several times I've re-listed something for sale and lowered the price somewhat. After the 3rd or 4th re-list, I've occasionally raised the price… sometimes higher than the original listing and… whammo! Sold! In one case the item was the center of a bidding war after I raised the price… unique concept...

I once emailed a seller to ask if they'd made a mistake on a listing...can't remember what the item was but it should've been something like ten quid and they had a buy it now price of one hundred quid.
The reply was that they were out of stock, waiting for stock to come back in, so they'd put a ridiculous price on the listing (knowing that no-one would buy at that price) to keep their position in the listing place.
