    eBay - Private Feedback restrictions

    I'm not sure if this has already been discussed.

    Anyway, eBay has taken a positive step forward in making things slightly less risky for buyers. Sellers with Private Feedback can no longer sell anything on eBay whilst they maintain private feedback.

    I think eBay should go one step further and restrict anyone with private feedback from bidding on any item.

    Why would anyone want to hide their feedback unless it contains something dodgy?

    I think there was a news thread on it somewhere. I agree though, and I always wondered what motivated people to have their feedback made private if they were an honest & legit seller?

    I didn't think you were allowed to sell anything like that on fleabay? I'm obviously not searching for the right things
    They told me I was gullible ... and I believed them.
