Private Listings | Buying | eBay Community

The "Private Listing" option should be done away with by eBay. (A) Buyer identification is made private by the implementation of the encrypted user ID, for example, _ r***g (B) Often times I will search a seller's feedback to see other buyers comments on an item. When the listing is a "Private Listing", you get zero results. (C) This option is abused by sellers to hide the items on which they are getting negative/neutral feedback. I do thank eBay for the implementation of the ability to leave a longer feedback text. That way I can thwart the sellers utilizing "Private Listing" to hide negative feedback for any given item by including the item name in my feedback. And in doing so, possibly let other buyers know my experience with an item (whether it be positive or negative), should they search the seller's feedback. The "Private Listing" option is obsolete with the implementation of (A) above. Chime in community !
