Sure, but the auction finishes on Saturday, not a single 30 minute affair like a house auction. Also if someone offers something to you during a sale period, you have every right to accept that offer. Reserve on TM is when things get locked in as a sale. This auction has no reserve, so nothing is 'sold' until the end, however the fact the first bid then disables offers from happening means you have to wait till the end of the bids, you cannot end it early. If I got an offer I couldn't refuse, I have no way to accept that - they have to join the bidding and wait to the end instead. The Help ...

I won't but thanks. I just wish it specifically stated that S=R if no reserve is set after the first bit, rendering offers N/A - as that is not stated in the Help. I just wont use offers again as its backwards to how I think it should work. If I set a start price, offers under that are not good enough so I simply wouldn't sell it, or I would relist it for a different price after it played out. If offers are only to offer a lower price, rather than a higher price, then that is a missed opportunity in my opinion.

But I specifically did not set a Reserve price... so all this seem moot - as reserve was purposely not set or paid for, for this very reason... To sell to the highest bidder, Offers or Bids - which ever it is... This does not seem right as I did not set a reserve and did not want one. So until I accept the highest offer or the auction runs out and the highest bidder gets it, it should not be 'sold' either... Why is it forcing me to sell it after the first bid for potentially a lower value, rather than letting me accept a higher Offer, when I specifically did not set the Reserve

Thanks - but just seems backwards compared to what it should be.I never set a reserve, and the fact it made S=R automatically, while still saying in some places that there is 'No Reserve' is just confusing. The whole point of having offers is to eseentially be a Buy Now I thought, to end the auction earlier than just letting it play out. But if its cancelled the Offers (which were still very much active when I looked by the way - I just couldnt accept them anymore) as soon as a bid comes in, then what is the point of the offers. You cant even communicate with the people who made the offer t...
