I fully understand your reasoning Marc, BUT as Bob says, just hiding your auctions will not stop that practice. If you have concrete proof that this is being done.....out the guy.....so all will know. Private auctions, IMO, seem to be 'shady' what with all the secrecy and hidden identities. Maybe that's needed for real expensive, high end items that approach six figures but not for our collectable field....at least not yet!!
