people canceling auctions early on eBay

I had bids on a few different things as well as things I was watching and it seems like the new trend is to post an auction and when its almost over if the price isnt high enough people just cancel the bids and end the auction early. Its a bunch of bullshit!

If you dont want to sell something unless its reaches a certain price then make it a 'Reserve' auction or make the minimum bid the least you will take for the item!

It sucks to be bidding on or watching stuff that you want to buy or at least have the potential to buy and then suddenly its gone.

that's dumb.
especially since if there's going to be a bidding war, it always happens at the very end.

fact... on average, items that close on the weekend sell for higher prices.
word.
