Issues Need to be Resolved

If you go to the “My Website Listing” section of the Members Area, you are able to see all of the live auctions you have. And if there’s a bid on the auction, it will show on the images. You probably know this.

I agree, though…. it should be more robust. A user dashboard of sorts.

I know it was discussed in a thread that you and I are on together where closed auctions should be visible to listers and winners only. This kind of data is relevant to what you discussed… should all be part of the dashboard.

I agree with you on the reserve too. The way reserve prices are treated now seems a bit flawed. A bidder can bid past a reserve, but the shown bid on the auction listing stays at 50% of the initial bid (or $1 more than the current bid).

I think the listing should have the words “reserve not met” visible to all users until the reserve is actually met.

And if a bidder places a bid higher than the reserve, the bid should go live as the reserve price right away… we shouldn’t wait until the end of the auction for the bid to be raised to meet the reserve.

Some more great points, James.
