  • You can make the bidders private....you tick a box on the listing page just under the starting price section. And then if the buyer leaves feedback no-one can see the item.....is that what you mean?
    Never put off until tomorrow what you can avoid doing altogether.:D
  • I don't think you can sell if your feedback's private? You could set it after they've left feedback though I guess?

    It is possible to make your listings private, which is not the same as hiding your own feedback which, as you say, would mean you can't sell.

    There's a box to tick on the listing page, tick it to keep bidders ID private.

    It's that simply :)

    You bought something cheap and you want to resell it for more but you dont want people
    to know you paid 99p for it and are selling it for £100?

    How do you hide that?


    Is that a more accurate question? Be honest.. Its yours you can do what you want with it.
    If you think its worth more and want to try go ahead.

    If this is the case dont worry buyers don't tend to check and I come across several sellers doing the same.

    Could be.... But I thought by the way I read her opening post, she may have a item of clothing cough cough to sell :rotfl:as she said it's 'to small'?

    The simple answer is never to buy and sell on the same account. I routinely buy things to resell, never had a problem.
