I tried complaining to ebay but I couldn't understand a word they were saying.

I am told by a very reliable, inside source that ebay is working diligently on the bid retraction issue on the whole ebay platform. I think we will see something in the next several months. Ebay takes it's time but they know it's a problem. They are working on it.

I am not trying to defend PWCC here. There were times I reported shill bidding to them and they felt that the bids were legit (lol), but these guys are selling like 700 trillion cards every year - how are they supposed to do everything manually? Block him, cancel his bids, block another guy, etc. That would be a crazy amount of work for them. Here is the solution: eBay needs to change their software! In other words, you cannot bid more than three times in any auction.

It's not the number of bids that's the issue. eBay simply needs to start kicking users off the system that retract more than 1 bid.

What's there to work on? Why is it taking years, we have been hearing about this forever. Institute a progressive suspension program based on too many retractions. Don't allow a retraction at all until the bidder substitutes another number. Case solved.
