Has ebaY gone MAD??
I had an item up... 2 bidders. Winner is notified, Paid quickly.... Now AFTER the auction has ended ebaY sends me a notice about a bid retraction.
I am at this point totally confused knowing that the auction had ended and the high bidder has already paid. So I take a look at the page and LO AND BEHOLD the HIGH BID DROPPED!!!!
I check bidders and I see that AFTER the auction ended my runner up was NARU'd and the ENDING bid was dropped!!
MY LORD how do I explain that to my cusotmer when they go back to the auction page?
And silly me... having Ebud, I delete my end of auction notices from Ebay.
Jeeze! I just hope my customer doesnt notice.
On second thought I wonder what fee ebaY charged for that auction. The original ending FVF or the after NARU FVF.

I have had this happen twice recently, so to keep from not knowing who my bidders are, I just go in during the auction, and copy the bidders info down, so if some eBay "posse" decided to try to destroy my auction at least I know who my bidders are and can contact them if the auction all of the sudden disappears.
THIS IS A DEFINITE REASON TO KEEP THE bidder information public.
