    Obviously if it remained it would tempt someone to grab it and run..happy seller and happy buyer.

    Wish EBay would look at this.

    It doesn't disappear until the reserve price is met. Problem is that the minimum reserve price is now £50 !

    There is an easy way round this, just list as BIN only and save part of the enhanced listing fee. That means that a buyer can only BIN and does not have the option of just putting in a bid.

    I think you can end auction early , cant you? Ive seen that option but never used it. You'd have to wait for the BIN bidder to bid then end it I supose.
