Hi There Why Trademe is not punishing members that starts an auction and withdraw it once other members has started to bid on it.... this is not facebook market place....so why should someone be allowed to start an auction run it for days and then withdraw it before it closes with active members bidding on it? People spend amounts of their time saving auctions,follow the bidding and actually missing on auctions just because the seller withdraws the Auction?  time wasters.. Fair enough if the Auction hasn't receive any bids , but not right if you are bidding on an item for days just to loose...
